Pros

Other stylists and our manager at our store are very good. She is the main reason for me working there. Our fellow employees help each other and unlike other HC salons, they are not trying to chop your head off.

Cons

That just about every quarter they take some benefit away from us. The latest one is that employees may not be able to buy products at 50% off, now we may buy them at 30% off. This will cause many (they are already talking about doing this) to have to travel to a beauty supply store adding an expense to the already depleted paycheck and tips. In the past year 2008-2009 HC changed 2X the commission rate for retail sales and in the past 6 months + or - they have made it nearly impossible to make money selling retail, but they insist that we must sell.

It's wonderful to hear that you love our team atmosphere and feel supported in your career development. We know that a busy salon brings its fair share of fast-paced stress, and we appreciate your ability to handle the rush so beautifully. Thank you for everything you do for our clients in Jacksonville! Gustavo Serbia, Chief Human Resources Officer

Pros

Close-knit group of coworkers, casual/relaxed management style, busy location

Cons

not much flexibility for schedules (have to work late nights), color line is limited and low quality, no support from upper management and salon needed a lot of updates that I think have been taken care of now, but were left in unacceptable condition for a long time. Also, not enough structure to who takes walk-ins, which led to laziness, drama, and bad customer service.
