Pros

Easy, good tips, great co workers, awesome clients

Cons

Great clips takes all complaints into consideration, I understand the customer is always right, but it is not fair when you always just give it to them for free, people are not always honest. If you are looking to further education, the training Gc offers is great as a new stylist starting out, but after that it's a joke, at least in my market the education is always the same classes. Hard to have an outside work life with no set schedule and always covering shifts. Franchisees don't understand how hard it is working full time let alone over time. No support from other franchisees, they are not very brand friendly, it almost feels like some treat certain owners salons over others. What happened to team, it's not just one or two salons it's the whole brand. Try to think about how we feel when we hear this.
