The ETS Junior Braid School is a youth entrepreneurship program for students ages 10-18. Students have the freedom to show creativity and create income simultaneously. We provide students with a classroom setting to work on developing their craft, then move them to a salon setting to bring their talents to light. Each program last for 12wks. Once students graduate, they are eligible to return as an intern for an additional 3 months. Upon completion of their internship, students are then candidates to work in our braiding salon, ETS Braid & Go located in
Jefferson Mall in Louisville, KY.
We too value the importance of achieving results through collaborative partnerships. In 2021 ETS partnered with BLOCS Network of Louisville, a collaborative partnership with JCPS, Metro United Way and Louisville Metro. Our focus areas are, Program Quality, Data Collection and Analysis, Access and Participation, Outreach and Advocacy.
In 2020 ETS partnered with St. George Scholarship Institute providing free programs that educate, mentor, and nurture youth into healthy lifestyles.
We partnered with JCPS as a vendor and formed a 12week after school braid program (21st Century Program) at Iroquois High School and Myzeek Middle School.
We were also granted a proclamation from the Mayor’s Office and were awarded June 2, 2020 as the official ETS Junior Braider Day!

Our facility is about 6500sqft. We have two sides with two separate entrances. Our students learn different styles of braiding using a very interesting technique that breaks down the usage of each finger in a way students can easily understand!
Our beginners are typically braiding within a day or so after participating in our "Braid Boot-camp." We understand that some students may require more attention than others. We provide one-on-one instruction with each individual student as needed so that there is no braider left behind!
Each Braider has the opportunity to become a Certified ETS Junior Braider after completing a total of 96hrs which is a minimum of 2 days a week 4hrs per day. Each student is responsible for logging their hours each day and at the end of each program a "graduation ceremony" is held.
Once a braider is certified with ETS, our facility is open to them during normal business hours to continue their journey of entrepreneurship. We encourage our students to take ALL clients at the salon to ensure a safe, clean, comfortable and professional environment. Once your braider is apart of the ETS family, our mentor-ship NEVER stops!!!
