Job Description / Average Wage

Hair Dresser: You will be in charge of cutting clients hair, as well as doing any other procedure that they want done such as coloring, perms and more.  You will either take clients by an appointment, or you may find some that show up at your salon without an appointment.  The average stylist reports that he/she receives around $7 to $10 a hour plus tips.

Coordinator: You will be in charge of helping the manager run the salon.  You will answer phones, take appointments, as well as cut hair yourself, if you have went to school for it.  In your downtime, you will stock shampoos, clean the floors, as well as the equipment.  Your average wage will be around $7 to $12 a hour.

Help Desk:  Working the front desk, you’re going to be in charge of answering the phone as well as greeting guests that come into the salon.  You’re going to help set up appointments as well as help guests with their appointments when they come in.  This is a job that is generally non-skilled, but if the help desk position is someone that is a stylist, you will help assist with cutting hair in your downtime.  This position starts at $7 to $10 a hour.

Salon Manager: Your duties will include running the whole store, as well as scheduling the employees, as well as making sure that the salon is running at 100%.   Most managers are going to be stylists.  You will report any problems to either corporate, or the franchised owner themselves.  Your average wage will be around $27,000 to $78,000 a year.

Benefits

The benefits are going to vary, depending on your location, as well as who owns it.  Corporate stores may differ from a franchised owned store.  It’s best to ask your hiring manager, when they do decide to hire you on what your benefits will be.
