Colorist - Colorist Clive and Co. Employee Review

The training at Clive and Co is difficult, but exceptional! My proudest moment of my career was celebrating my presentation, and earning the privilege of working alongside some of the most talented hairdressers that I have known. Clive is a wonderful teacher whose precision cuts is unparalleled. Everyone is very supportive. Paid vacations and sick pay is provided. That’s rare in this industry. Clive also offers disability insurance which if needed is a godsend. I have health issues and have been unable to work for almost 2 years. Clive and staff continued to check on me and have been very supportive. I won’t work for anyone else in the hair industry!

Too busy? Which is a good problem to have.

I have worked at Clive and Co. for about 5 years now. It took me a bit to find a salon that I wanted to plant roots down in, most salons in Dallas are way too unorganized for my liking. In five years I have learned more than I could have ever imagined. It took me about a year to complete my apprenticeship, and it isn’t made to be easy. This salon runs like a well oiled machine, and when you come to work everyday, you need to make sure you’re ready to WORK! We stay busy all day, every day... and if you’re lazy this is not the salon for you. Clive is truly a great boss, if you tell him your goals in the industry he will move mountains to help you get there. One of my favorite things about this salon is that we are given awesome benefits- paid vacation, paid sick days/holidays, a 401k, health+dental insurance, and a fun work environment. So if you are ready to put in some work and dedication, you’ll love working at Clive and Co.

You get what you put in, so you are the only one that determines your happiness. if you don’t have a great attitude and put in the hard work, you will probably find some cons. For me I have no complaints, as I have worked in two other salons that were absolute disasters.
