Are you a licensed stylist who loves doing hair but also knows you are capable of more?

FS Cut & Color is looking for a salon leader who wants to grow beyond the chair. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys serving guests, coaching other stylists, solving problems, and helping build a strong salon culture.

For the right person, this position may offer a future path toward expanded leadership, profit-sharing, or possible ownership opportunities.

About This Position

This is a hands-on leadership role for a licensed cosmetologist who wants to stay active behind the chair while helping guide the team and support salon operations.

You will provide hair services, help create a great guest experience, support team development, and work closely with ownership to improve salon performance. We are looking for someone who is dependable, positive, coachable, and ready to help lead with both skill and professionalism.

What You’ll Be Responsible For

• Performing haircuts, color, styling, and finishing services

• Assisting with hiring, onboarding, and staff development
• Helping manage salon flow, cleanliness, scheduling needs, and daily operations
• Supporting goals for guest count, service revenue, average ticket, retail sales, and retention
• Helping maintain inventory, back bar, retail products, and sanitation standards
• Participating in local marketing, social media, community outreach, and business partnerships
• Communicating openly with ownership about wins, challenges, team needs, and opportunities

• Confidence addressing guest concerns with care and professionalism
• Strong initiative and problem-solving ability
• Flexible availability, including some evenings and weekends

Why Apply?

This is more than a stylist position. This is an opportunity for someone who wants to grow into leadership and have a meaningful impact on the future of the salon.

You may be a great fit if you want:

• A leadership role with room to grow
• An established salon with walk-in traffic and repeat guests
• The ability to earn behind the chair while developing as a leader
• A chance to help shape team culture and guest experience
• Clear standards, coaching, and business support
