Beauty School Students: Get Your Foot in the Door!

Working our front desk is the perfect way to start your career before you're licensed. You'll learn how a busy salon runs, get to know our clients and stylists, and see what makes a great stylist successful. When you graduate and earn your license, you'll get priority consideration for a stylist position with us. Your clients will already know your face, and you'll be ready to hit the ground running!

• Build real-world customer service, scheduling, and retail skills that help in any career.
• Grow with us! Work with our leadership team to plan your path from the front desk to the stylist chair.
• We believe every voice matters. You'll have the opportunity to make a meaningful impact on your team and community every day.
• You'll get to know our supportive, caring family business owners who put customers and employees first. We're a small business that's 100% family owned and operated.

What You'll Do:

• Greet clients and check them in for their appointments.
• Answer phones, book appointments, and manage the schedule.
• Process payments and help clients find the right products.
• Help manage salon inventory.
• Build relationships with busy Walmart foot traffic.
• Keep the front desk and waiting area clean and welcoming.

What We Need from You:

• Friendly Face: Greet clients with a big smile and a professional touch.
• Reliability: Show up on time and ready to go.
