The customers were very nice. It was always New and exciting. The customers usually always tipped so having a was of tip money after work was great.

The most time they want you to take on a haircut is 15 minutes. Some haircuts can just not be done in that time.

Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re sorry to hear it didn’t meet expectations. Because each salon is independently owned and operated, we encourage you to reach out directly to your franchisee, as they’re best positioned to address employment-related concerns.
