Pros

They give hours to work

Cons

Pay really sucks and tips. Can vary from $1.00- maybe 10.00 per client can live on a check for 2 week total payout less than $400.00

Since each salon is independently owned and operated, franchisees may use a number of different factors to determine stylist's total compensation. If you would like, you can email Jeanne@greatclips.com with the salon location where you were employed & details. We will provide it to the franchisee for you. If you would like to be anonymous, please let us know. Thank you.

Pros

Fast paced, guaranteed base wage, endless opportunities for advancement, team work, guaranteed clientele, discount on products, flexibility, paid vacation and holidays I’ve worked at my location under two years after not being in the hair industry for quite some time. I was promoted to assistant manager after working there for ten months, and promoted to store manager nine months after that. I love this company and all of our clientele. This is honestly one of the best companies to work for despite no chemicals besides perms at some locations. It is such a welcoming environment for stylists of any age. My stylists in my salon range from 20 yr to 75 and we all work as a team.

Cons

Sometimes during winter we can have periods of time where no one will come in because the weather is too bad. Other than that, this is a wonderful company to work for. Love my franchise owners as well!

Pros

Ummm .... .... .... .....

Cons

Pay higher hourly wages! They pay 15$ per hour in the state right next to me. Owner is GREEDY owns over 20 locations. He can't even pay his loyal managers .50c more than the regular stylists. I'm going to give bad review every chance I get. Mostly because my reviews keep getting deleted.
