Pros

Some of the regular customers were great, most of them were professional hair stylists so they knew already what they were looking for.

Cons

Where do I start? The manager was horrible. I was hired as a non professional when it comes to hair styling yet the manager expected me to know it all and when I had no idea on which bleach or developer to recommend to a customer she would throw a tizzy fit because she had to help a customer. It brings me to one point of working here: do NOT apply here blindly, you should make sure you know about hair and coloring it because you WILL get questions about it. If you work here, also do not expect any compensation such as raises or advancement. I can only suggest this job to people in hair styling who need an extra paycheck. NOT for beginners.

Pros

Loved working around beauty products.

Cons

Upper management and pay are horrible. Liked most co workers but some extremely lazy. Hair color training is lacking and the only thing they care about is sales, not a care if you mess someone’s hair up.
