Pros

*Great staff *Knowledge of senior stylist *Multiple locations *Each store has a different energy not all are the same

Cons

The owner would micromanage leadership and the staff. Managers would not keep assistant managers informed with current changes within a timely manner. I was the assistant manager for two locations, and there was no benefits or incentives given within a 2-year time span. And there was no additional room for growth within the company.(I have worked it different locations in different states as well. this location was not my favorite) The educators were not well-trained and a variety of textures or styles. And would criticize newer stylist coming right out of school and was not willing to help them grow.

Good experience to be in the beauty industry if you don't do hair, Good way to network with the community as well

Cons

A little disorganized at time, I think the corporate policies were also a little too script sometimes whnen it came to the way clients had to be charged
