This is a select service business. Hair cutting is the main focus. I don't mind that since perms are stinky and colors can be stressful. Clients are provided and it is a team atmosphere. It is a franchised business, so each franchisee does things differently. The main focus is quality haircuts at a great price in a timely manner. Training is provided with continuing education as well. Schedules can be flexible if needed.
Cons
Low base pay, but if you work efficiently you can increase your base rate. Shops are open 7 days a week with evenings being as late as 9 pm during the week. Which unfortunately can effect your pay if the location isn't busy during that last hour. There can be a high turnover of employees. The work is constant and this can drive some stylists away. Being timed on services provided and time taken in between clients can drive employees away as well.
