Pros
You get Paid cash daily
Cons
Unless you threatheb to quit, you won’t get your raises. They’ll hire girls with no experience at 50% just to staff the shop while too stylists make 40%. You get a 1% raise to be a key holder. Totally not worth it because god forbid life happens and you can’t close, NO ONE will stay for you. Managers and other stylists get treated even better if they do drugs on the job. 1099. Basically, after you pay your taxes on the $15 cut, you walk away with just over $4. YOU pay all credit card processing fees. Their machine doesn’t have a tip option so you have to ask clients if they want to tip you. They don’t take Discover or AMEX. They allow girls that don’t show up because they do too many drugs to stay on the schedule and just expect everyone else to pick up the slack rather than just taking care of the good and getting rid of the bad stylists. Regional managers don’t actually care about how you feel, they just don’t want you to quit. They’ll tell you anything to keep you.. including promise promotions and raises then later say “hah just kidding”. They purposely give store management positions to girls that they know don’t have the drive to do better. They tell regional managers that they have this big awesome position but really they are just there to make sure that shifts are covered.
