Meet the leaders behind Purple Salon & Academy. I am Hiral Vora, the Founder and Chairperson, and this is my husband, Harish Vora, our Co-Founder and CFO. Together, we have built this academy on a foundation of passion and excellence for the past 17 years.
Our Purple Graduation Course is a mix of theory and intense practicals. Here you can see students learning hair coloring on a client, makeup application, and attending a lecture from me. We ensure you are well-rounded professionals.
The first day of our hairdressing course begins with a prayer for a successful journey. We then dive into the importance of professionalism, discussing how our appearance and way of talking impacts client trust.
A crucial part of our training is the professional ethics and hygiene class. Here, our instructor discusses the standards of conduct and cleanliness that are essential for a successful and respected career in the beauty industry.

About Inside the Academy: Our Culture & Team
When you train with us, you are not just another student ID. You are part of our 17-year family. Every lesson is hands-on—you work with real clients under supervision, not just dummy heads—so you step out ready to handle any service confidently from day one.
Why We Are Different
We know how confusing the beauty industry can be when you start. 'Bahut log pareshan rehte hain, kya karayein?' (So many people worry, what should we do?). At Purple, my mission is to remove that confusion. We don’t believe in dry, textbook-only theory. Our academy culture is built on mentorship and real-world readiness.
Hands-On Learning
We treat our academy like a functioning salon. You will practice on live models and clients, gaining the exact experience that employers look for. Whether it is mastering a tricky haircut or learning the chemistry behind skin aesthetics, our trainers are industry veterans who teach you the 'why' and the 'how'.
Your Career, Our Commitment
- Certification: All our programs carry government and UGC-approved certifications to ensure your hard work is recognized everywhere.
- Support: My husband Harish and I are personally involved. We do not just teach and forget; we provide lifetime placement assistance to help you find your footing in the industry.
- Inclusive Environment: We have designed our courses with flexible options, including easy EMI plans, so that money doesn't stand in the way of your dreams. As I always tell my students, 'Your dreams are my dreams.'
If you are in Mira Road and looking for a place where you will be pushed to grow but always supported, come visit us. Let's talk about your goals over a cup of coffee.
