Can you leap small children in a single bound? Are your scissor-wielding skills comparable to Edward Scissor-Hands? Do even the toughest of targets get precision cuts when in your chair?
Then we want YOU!
We're currently seeking someone who LOVES TO WORK WITH CHILDREN and has just the right personality to join our team and add to an unforgettably-fun experience for clients.
Shear Madness, Haircuts for Kids, is more than a salon . . . it's a memory maker! It's taken us 26 years to develop the perfect environment for our kids and our stylists. We'll readily admit, not ALL of the experience is the actual haircut you give them (although it plays a huge part!)--you see the station you'll work at comes equipped with a flat-screen TV and the ability for your kid-clients to play video games or watch a cartoon-playing DVD. There are endless toys and funny-face mirrors on the walls. We call it our "pleasant distractions" so you can make the perfect cut.
As a Shear Madness stylist, SMILES ARE CONTAGIOUS for our clients and our stylists! You'll work in colorful, bright environment with FUN at every turn. Fellow stylists share your passion of working with kids in a fun environment.
If you're a high-energy, children-friendly, sweet and sassy stylist who LOVES to work in organized chaos, we invite you to apply for the interview of a lifetime!
Part-time positions are available! We will train you!
