About The Position

The Hair Stylist Intern role is for cosmetology and barber students who want to gain real-world experience in a salon while still in school and prepare for a potential transition into a licensed stylist role after graduation.

Depending on the salon, the experience may include exposure to salon operations and customer service; observing and supporting haircutting and finishing techniques as permitted by state regulations; and using salon systems, tools, and technology.
