You receive built-in leadership support, guidance, and a trusted community without having to create or manage another program.

  • Built-in leadership support for owners
  • Retain top talent
  • Recruit aligned team members
  • Build a people-first culture
  • Increase career longevity
  • Improve team health and well-being
See how it works

You didn't become an owner to feel overwhelmed and alone

No one really knows what it takes to own a salon or spa until you’ve lived it. Overnight you’re the leader, coach, recruiter, problem solver and culture builder. Before lunch, that you’re probably eating standing up, you’ve already fielded your salon DMs, made 3 owner decisions, checked on inventory, taken care of multiple clients, led morning huddle and emotionally supported your team… all the while your morning coffee needs to be warmed up for the 3rd time.

Only owners understand what it’s like to finally take that family vacation in Hawaii, and get a text as you’re boarding that the water heater went out again. Your lead stylist decides to go independent right as your salon is finally hitting the profitability metrics you’ve been working toward for years.

You’re trying your best to train new talent, but the constant recruitment and training efforts are always on you, and you worry no one will be able to help with that. New hires and generations are different than they were before, and you’re trying to pivot and adjust in real time.

You’re working to motivate your team, provide a work environment they love, keep your shelves stocked, keep payroll going, and stay hydrated, all the while protecting your own mental health. It’s the best job in the world. It’s also the biggest responsibility, and the most people-intensive work there is.

The Vitality Wheel™

Every lesson, challenge, coaching session, and check-in is built around six dimensions of Vitality: the foundation for healthier people, stronger teams, and thriving businesses.

What does a month in Vitality look like?

Every month follows one simple rhythm.

Every month begins with one guided Vitality Mini Retreat built around a single theme. From there, your team follows four simple steps inside the app that turn this month’s theme into habits that strengthen your culture. Everything is planned, guided, scheduled, and ready to go. It fits into the way you already run your business.

The four steps, every month

Host a guided Vitality Mini Retreat with your team. Join us live or watch the beautifully guided lesson on demand. However you learn, everyone experiences the same monthly theme.

Each month includes a simple gamified challenge that helps your team apply what they’re learning, whether they watch live together or on demand. Small steps that create real growth!

Reflect on the monthly theme together, share wins, ask questions and encourage each other in your private team space. Those conversations keep momentum alive and turn wellness into a team habit, not a solo task.

Join the monthly self-care session, or practice any time with 100+ guided sessions on demand. Every practice supports your wellness streak, making it simple, consistent, and fun.

“It helped my team connect the dots between their mindset and sales behind the chair. As an owner, a lot of programs and tools say they’re turnkey, but this one actually is.

Now the owner benefit

Build a business you can step away from and trust your dream team has it handled

You didn’t start your salon to be the one responsible for everything. At some point, every owner becomes the bottleneck. Real sustainability isn’t found in being there for every opening, every closing, every decision, and every problem. It’s built by developing people who can confidently lead. The Vitality Project helps you become the kind of leader who develops leaders as your team grows and your business grows stronger.

Together, you create a culture where ownership is shared, leaders step up, and success no longer depends on one person carrying everything. Imagine taking a month off without losing momentum, spending two weeks at the beach, working fewer days behind the chair, so you can focus on growing your business and not constantly running it, traveling, leaving early for Pilates, coming in late, and handling life’s unexpected moments without worrying your salon will fall apart. That kind of freedom doesn’t happen by accident. It comes from becoming the kind of leader who can trust, delegate, let go of control, and create space for others to lead.

As you build your dream team, you create the freedom to live your dream life.

Empowered people empower profits

The most expensive things in your business don’t live on a P&L.

Burnout, turnover, inconsistent leadership and culture challenges rarely begin as financial problems, but they almost always become financial problems.

Your greatest business assets aren’t on a spreadsheet

  • Your time
  • Your freedom
  • Your mental capacity
  • Your people

Healthy people create healthy businesses. When you invest in your people, leadership strengthens, performance stabilizes, and your business becomes easier to run.

That’s why Vitality focuses on your people first,
so your P&L can follow.

A voice for the beauty industry. Hairdresser turned industry thought leader.

Helping beauty entrepreneurs with big missions change more lives. Helping human centric beauty organizations change the world.

Before launching The Vitality Project, Elizabeth Faye spent more than a decade coaching and helping change the lives of more than 30,000 paying clients. Her retreats, coaching programs, and communities created the foundation this work was built upon. She has worked alongside some of the beauty industry’s most recognized names and is now bringing everything she has learned into one connected experience.

A hairdresser turned trauma-informed life and health coach, somatic facilitator and workplace wellness expert, she brings mental health, healing and leadership into beauty in a way that is practical, critically needed and deeply human. She is a TEDx speaker, podcast host, author, and co-director of an award-winning documentary on Amazon Prime.

At the center of her work is The Vitality Project, the beauty industry’s first true workplace wellness program, built to integrate directly into salon systems and beauty school curriculums so professionals are protected and people first cultures actually get built. It is rooted in one belief: that each person has the power to create meaningful change.

Burnout shouldn’t be the cost of success.

Your questions answered

Vitality Project FAQ

Still have a question? Come talk to us.

What is the financial investment for The Vitality Project?

Pricing is based on your team size, not per person, so you only pay for what fits your salon. Plans start at $200 per month for teams of 3 to 5 and scale with team size.

Each pricing tier covers a range of team sizes, so if your team fluctuates, you can easily add or remove team members.

You can choose monthly or annual billing. Annual members receive two months free, so that is our recommended option.

Monthly billing is still a 12-month commitment, but you can pay in monthly installments. You will not receive the two months free, but you’ll have the flexibility to move to a lower tier if your team size decreases during those 12 months.

Every plan includes the full Vitality experience. There are no hidden costs or add-ons. After answering four quick questions, you’ll see your exact price before committing.

See your exact price
How long am I committing for?

Twelve months either way. What you are choosing is how to pay for it.

Annual: Pay once and get two months free. It is the best price, one decision, and you are done for the year.

Monthly: Spread the investment across twelve payments. It is easier on cash flow, and it is still a twelve-month commitment, so it is not a rolling plan you can stop in month three.

The straight version: monthly costs more across the year because you make twelve payments instead of ten. Annual costs more today. Owners who pay monthly are protecting cash flow. Owners who pay annually would rather make the decision once and not think about it again.

How much time will I have to invest to make this successful?

Between 10 and 30 minutes a month, depending on the level you pick.

Empower, done for you: 10 to 15 minutes a month. Built for booth and suite rentals. You stay mostly hands-off, and we run the program for your people.

Engage, done for and with you: 15 to 30 minutes a month. Built for hybrid teams. You host quarterly mini retreats, and we provide everything you need.

Ignite, done with you: 30 minutes a month. Built for commission and employee teams. You host monthly mini retreats, and we provide everything you need.

A 10-minute Wellness Blueprint during onboarding picks the right level and personalizes the program to your business, your goals, and how involved you actually want to be.

That number is management time only. It does not count the calls you attend for yourself. Your Owner Mastermind, Champion sessions, guest experts, and self-care sessions are not work you are running. They are support you are receiving. Take as much of it as you want.

Management time stays that small because the platform does the running. It schedules, prompts, tracks streaks and Vital Checks, holds the entire on-demand library, and puts an AI coach in every person’s pocket. You are not having to do the teaching, the creating, the admin work, the reminding, the tracking people down, or any of the accountability. Our technology, educational systems, and team literally run the program. You provide it and host it.

We also develop a Champion on your team, someone other than you who carries the momentum. This is the part owners often underestimate. You are getting leadership development you would otherwise hire a consultant for, and it comes back as a person who can lead the room when you are not in it.

The honest answer to “can 20 minutes a month really work?” is that it works because it is not 20 minutes of you. It is 20 minutes of you on top of a system running every day underneath.

My team size changed. Does it cost more to add people?

Growing inside your tier is free. Add people up to your tier’s ceiling, and your price does not move.

When a hire pushes you past that ceiling, the 90-Day Team Member Fit rule holds your current rate for 90 days. Invite them immediately, get them into the program from day one, and your rate does not change until you have had three months to know whether they are staying. If you pay monthly, your next three billing dates stay where they are. If you pay annually, the difference is prorated at day 90. It applies to a move of one tier.

Removing access is instant.

It also changes how hiring feels. New people arrive into a culture and a development system that already exist, instead of into whatever you had time to teach them that week.

Is this really for me or for my team?

Both, and they end up being the same thing.

For your team: 91% of licensed beauty professionals report at least one ongoing wellness challenge, and 1 in 4 are considering leaving the industry because of it. This is the support that helps you hire, develop, and retain great talent.

For you: Imagine having a culture operating system that does the heavy lifting. You’re able to hire, train, and retain talent, and even take that girls’ summer trip you’ve been dreaming about, knowing the business and your people are supported.

The Vitality Project is where a mastermind meets an employee benefit and a culture operating system. It helps your team finally run the kind of business you’ve been dreaming of. This is truly where heart meets technology.

We also develop a Champion on your team, someone other than you who carries the momentum. This is the part owners often underestimate. You are getting leadership development you would otherwise hire a consultant for, and it comes back as a person who can lead the room when you are not in it.

Even if your team never opened the app once, a year at the entry tier is $2,000 when paid annually. Set that against what one resignation has cost you: the empty chair, the retraining, and the clients who left with them. Most owners have been paying for that problem for years without ever seeing it on a P&L.

What are all the ways I am supported, personally and professionally, as an owner?

You are not buying a program for your team and standing outside it. Your membership includes:

Monthly Owner Mastermind Call: A room of other salon and spa owners working on the same things you are.

Bi-monthly Champion Mastermind: We develop the leader on your team so you are not the only one carrying it.

Monthly Self-Care Session: Live breathwork and guided meditation with wellness practitioners. For you, not for your team.

Quarterly Guest Experts: Brought in to address what owners are actually facing.

A private owner-only chat: Where you can say the thing you cannot say in front of your team.

Community Map and Match Maker: So you can find the owners near you and the ones building what you are building.

Your coaching team: Real people who know your business, not a help article.

Owning a salon is one of the loneliest jobs in the industry. Most owners are the person everyone brings problems to and have nowhere to bring their own. This is the part of the membership that is only yours.

Can I use my L’Oréal points to pay for it?

Yes. You are already buying product. Those L’Oréal purchases earn Level Loyalty points, and those points can cover part of your membership or all of it.

Earn points on your purchases, cash them in for a Vitality Project program voucher through your Level Loyalty account, and send it to us. We confirm it with L’Oréal and apply the credit. Vouchers run from $250 to $2,500 and up.

If you pay annually, the credit goes toward your next renewal. If you pay monthly, it comes off the top of your remaining payments. L’Oréal can take up to 60 days to settle a voucher, and we email you the moment it clears.
