      Pros

      fast money, clientele provided, hourly pay plus tips.

      Cons

      always under or overstaffed. cannot take clients with you even if they were only coming to you by request for years. you are very replaceable and staffn is always changing. managers only care about numbers and franchisees are just names that you never meet. also the amount of customers you do you end up losing what you could have made if you were comission because productivity drops at the end of night shift so you slave for minimum wage

      We appreciate that you were a member of a great team. Franchisees and managers work hard to staff the salons for busy customer traffic while still taking into account a work/life balance.
