Pros

This is my first job in the industry, 2 years out of school. the training provided was extensive and very helpful in getting me back in the groove of things. i was hired on as a stylist but im a hard worker coming from management experience and was determined to get my haircut times and sales numbers up which led me into the assistant manager position fairly fast! my hard work towards these simple things have also given me opportunities for bonuses and good tips! 5 months in and i’ve earned $100 just for having good survey scores from clients reviews, and a raise on my paychecks for hitting the company’s efficiency numbers. the sense of community specifically in the LeeHill franchise has been incomparable to previous chains i’ve worked at. they care and want you to improve for YOU! my manager has been completely understanding with my packed schedule and very flexible so i can still have time with my family while working full time.

Cons

i definitely recommend sportclips with LeeHill for beginners, stylists looking for a steady career, or anyone in between.

Pros

Great hourly pay with tips. Averaged about $38 to $40 an hour. Great starting place. They do offer training. The co-workers were nice at my location. Management does help you with flexible scheduling so if you have children, it works out great.

Cons

Burnout is real. Expected to complete service within an allotted short time. Too many clients come in that want expensive barbershop cuts but want to pay the lowest price (they really shouldn’t even go to sport clips for). Also, way too many clients with long hair wanting full scissor cuts. They won’t turn away clients even if the cuts they ask for are — are not something sport clips does or allows for a lot of time. TV’s get annoying after a while (too loud).
