Styling is fun, management terrible

Pros

High quality products and hot tools make styling fun. Generous employee discount on product/tools. Free services. Mostly nice clientele, and good tips. Pay is minimum wage (12.00 in Los Angeles) but if you sell lots of product and get tips, the pay isn’t bad. I averaged about $22/hour once commission and tips were factored in.

Cons

The hourly pay is minimum wage, and management sucks. You are treated as a number and not a human. On busy days we would be asked to take lunch after only 1 client, so that we could be available the rest of the day. They will also force you to take a lunch even if you only have a 3-4 hour shift. This is so they won’t have to pay you for 30 mins if the salon is slow. This is ILLEGAL. On slow days you will be asked to come in and work for 2 hours and then be sent home. Some days I was asked to clock out early and still work for a while so that they wouldn’t have to pay me my earned overtime. And not to mention, I was DOCUMENTED for calling out sick!!! They require 8 hours notice to call out sick. That is a ridiculous policy, and should you have an emergency, or come down sick, prepare yourself to receive angry and hostile text messages and documentation from management. How this company is run is extremely unethical, and I would save yourself the headache and stay away. There is a reason no one stays at DryBar longer than 1 year. 9 months in, and very few had been working there longer than I had.
