Pros

There are no good things about this job!

Cons

The managers are nasty to you and don’t care about what you have going on or how you feel. You are not only the receptionist but you are also house keeping and a host, you have to tuck in wires constantly, sweep the floor every 40 mins, dust shelves, unfold and fold towels, help the stylist get they tools warmed up and run back and forth for them to get hair clips etc. The job would have been alright if the stylist and managers were nice people but they are not!!!! There were maybe 5 out of 20 stylist that were nice the rest will give you attitude and look at you nasty. They DO NOT help you with training what so ever and have you figure out everything on your own leaving your stresses and unable to breath. Theirs costumers in your face every second and their system for booking absolutely sucks. They also constantly cut your hours at work not caring if you want/need to stay for the time that they gave you.

Pros

The BEST thing about being employed as the hairstylist is that you do not have to worry about bringing/having a “BOOK” ; like in some cases where hair salons would prefer a new stylist to have a clientele base upon starting! Drybar hairstylist can easily build a “Booked & Busy” client based request if you follow these 3 tips: •SPEED (45min tops for the whole process)! •CONSISTENCY (Client consultation, Shampooing, Styling, ReBook)! •SCHEDULE ( wether you Full/Part time); Time Management is the key to maintaining your daily/weekly/monthly schedule!

Cons

Drybar is NOT your average corporate salon, they DO NOT like for hairdressers to sit around riding their CLOCK w/o nothing to do, they will have you clock out for the rest of your shift and send you home (ex.; if your shift is from 12pm-6pm and the salon slowdown around 2:15pm ( if you NOT cleaning, sweeping, restocking) they will send you home); literally, just putting you at 2hrs 15min for the day!! Highly played FAVORITISM (Depending on your “Home Salon” from District, manager to Salon manager ), *YOU DO NOT HAVE TO HAVE A VALID REASON * ( JEALOUSY or HATING either or both are very UNPROFESSIONAL in the workplace)!
