This class will provide beauty professionals, including independent contractors, salon owners, and freelance stylists, with an in-depth understanding of self-employment taxes and how to navigate the complexities of tax filing. Many beauty professionals work for themselves or on a freelance basis, which requires them to understand how self-employment taxes work, how to properly file taxes, and what deductions they can claim to minimize their tax liabilities. Students will walk away knowing how taxes works specifically to their business and the best way to be prepared for tax season each year.
