The interview process will be with the Business Manager and either the owner or the Salon Manager. You will be required to do a trades test and we need the following models:

  • Gents (scissor over comb and use of clippers demonstrated)

You will need to discuss the process of each cut at the beginning, after the cut and then finally at the end after it has been dried (before any texturising). After, we will then have a chat to discuss the trades test and how we move forward, at this stage we will discuss salary options (commission or a guaranteed amount, this will be based on experience and what level you enter in as). Please relax and be yourself. We understand that is can be very daunting experience, our team are lovely and they will be here to support you if needed. Good luck!
