Pros

Good connection with clientele. Good place to pick up extra shifts when they are needed. You can meet some awesome people.

Cons

There's honestly nothing to say about this place but HORRIBLE. the company itself is a joke. They only care about how much money they are making each year. They don't bother to appreciate who really makes that happen. WHICH IS US THE STYLISTS. without us drybar wouldn't be anything. I have been with this company for 4 years and not once have I ever gotten AT LEAST a "thank you for working with us" from the egotistical owner Alli Webb. Met her a couple times and has no care for anything or anyone but herself. We get little to no pay, 4 years of a 45min commute for 10.75/hr. So basically the worst sweat shop anywhere. You will get no hours, no commission(due to their new policy). So if you like working for nothing, come work here. You will be expected to scrub toilets, clean their frames with qtips and toothbrushes,scrub baseboards, pick up dead rodents from the shop. Worst place to work. Only reason I stay is because I have a steady clientele and I get to basically come in whenever I want to or not. Other than that, DO NOT WORK HERE. better off at a hair cuttery.

Pros

A Leadership team that is always supportive - Trust me, you think they wouldn't be flexible because of how high of demand they are.. but they ARE. So grateful to have found a place right out of school. I also am making more than I did at my restaurant serving. The consistency of training and gaining my skill since I'm new out of Cosmetology school, I greatly appreciate the help and support.

Cons

June is a little more mellow.. Not as many clients like the typical 8-10 per day.

Pros

The BEST thing about being employed as the hairstylist is that you do not have to worry about bringing/having a “BOOK” ; like in some cases where hair salons would prefer a new stylist to have a clientele base upon starting! Drybar hairstylist can easily build a “Booked & Busy” client based request if you follow these 3 tips: •SPEED (45min tops for the whole process)! •CONSISTENCY (Client consultation, Shampooing, Styling, ReBook)! •SCHEDULE ( wether you Full/Part time); Time Management is the key to maintaining your daily/weekly/monthly schedule!

Cons

Drybar is NOT your average corporate salon, they DO NOT like for hairdressers to sit around riding their CLOCK w/o nothing to do, they will have you clock out for the rest of your shift and send you home (ex.; if your shift is from 12pm-6pm and the salon slowdown around 2:15pm ( if you NOT cleaning, sweeping, restocking) they will send you home); literally, just putting you at 2hrs 15min for the day!! Highly played FAVORITISM (Depending on your “Home Salon” from District, manager to Salon manager ), *YOU DO NOT HAVE TO HAVE A VALID REASON * ( JEALOUSY or HATING either or both are very UNPROFESSIONAL in the workplace)!
