The Professional Beauty Federation is a nonprofit trade association that was formed in 1999 to give voice to hairstylists, barbers, nail techs, estheticians and other beauty/barbering professionals, students, schools and businesses to raise the professionalism of the industry and provide much needed advocacy to protect the licensed professional.

The Federation led the fight to open salons during the pandemic with our grassroots campaign #OpenSalonsNow, our lawsuits against government/health officials and most recently with our nationwide PPP and ERC assistance programs that has thus far helped over 11,000 professionals and businesses, injecting over $30 million dollars back into the beauty/barbering industry. In addition to our advocacy and legal work, the Federation provides competitive merchant services and low interest loans to independents and salons, liability insurance, product and equipment discounts, and a host of other benefits to help sustain and raise our beloved profession.

For schools/students: annual dues are $1,000/campus and $25/student (students can use the “group rate”).
