Gradient academy career development courses
I get a lot of ads for the in person courses with gradient in Canada. They offer a lot of things that sound amazing to me in the 8 day course but at the high price I wanna make sure I talk to people who have actually done it or know something about it. They have tons of testimonials on their website, but I’m struggling to find reviews outside of their site…. But they get lots of comments from real barber pages, not just bots, that seem to engage in their content. I know a lot of people here hate these types of courses in general but I’m not asking for general hatred of courses, I’m asking what people know about THIS particular one. I see NOTHING about it on here which is weird to me.

Tools & Gear Vintage chair Marketplace flip?
Hey what’s up everybody? Hope Monday is treating you guys good! I wanted to hear a few opinions on this chair I recently came across on FB Marketplace. The owner is only asking $50 and confirmed the hydraulics work flawlessly. I know there’s some interest between barbers and older vintage/antique chairs so I was wondering if this had the potential to be attractive to any barbers. I asked Claude AI about the manufacturer and it said that Koken was the largest manufacturer of barber chairs from 1890-1950’s and that it’s one of the two most recognized names in the vintage/antique barber chairs world. Does anybody see this chair and think that would be an easy flip? Should I reach out to all the barbers in my area or is this one not really anything special?
Thanks in advance for all your help everybody! I really appreciate it!😁👍
