Pros

Consistent hourly pay. Walk out with tips daily. Full access to color product.

Cons

Inconsistent scheduling. I went through about 5-6 managers while employed. None of which knew how to run a store. Most were hired above long term employees and hadn’t little or no management experience. There is a lot of pressure put on stylists to sell retail, however there is not a full retail backbat available.
