Hair Stylist Intern
About The Position
Join a locally owned Great Clips® salon team and start building real-world salon experience while you’re still in school. The Hair Stylist Intern role is designed for cosmetology and barber students who want to learn what salon life is really like, connect with a professional team, and prepare for a smooth transition into a licensed stylist role after graduation. This opportunity is ideal for students who are curious, motivated, and excited to grow their skills in a supportive salon environment. Get paid while you finish school or wait for your Colorado license. You'll run reception, shampoo, and sanitation, and learn a high-volume floor from an experienced crew — then step straight into a full Stylist role the day your license lands. No cutting until you're licensed. Weekend availability required; both part/full time considered. United Salons dba Great Clips pays on a weekly basis, every Friday. We prefer to promote from within.
