Pros
They will help you grow as a stylist through classes if your not very confident. Lots of clientele that you don't have to advertise for or schedule for. Great. co-workers, really became more of a second family. Franchise allows you to help other locations so the opportunity for extra hours is avail. Great hourly wage, you keep tips, plus commission on product sales bonuses of performance.

Since each salon is independently owned and operated, franchisees may use a number of different factors to determine stylist's total benefits. Thank you.

RecommendsPositive OutlookI worked at Great Clips part-time for more than a year
Pros
My location stayed busy which = money. If it's not busy, it would not be worth as were paid more if we cut more.
Cons
Management is busssyyyyy. Always available to staff, but with how many responsibilities they have along with being stylists themselves, I can't believe they aren't paid more or given more benefits.
