Our mission
Helping beauty pros work for themselves, not by themselves
By connecting freelance hair and beauty professionals with salon owners, we want to make it easy to rent out chairs in established salons so that freelancers can find flexible workspaces, while salon owners can turn their unused chairs into profit.
The team

MuseAvenue was founded by Raphael Veron and Thomas Roux, who combined their deep expertise to create a transformative platform for the hair & beauty industry.
