you have options
we built yello with the goal of empowering stylists to have the best work life balance. we are very selective in who we bring on and ultimately want someone who takes pride in their work and is passionate about becoming a better stylist. that being said, those who join the team have options to grow, whether that's starting as a commissioned stylist and growing a clientele to become an independent contractor, or maybe you already have a full clientele and want to learn about running a salon of your own—regardless we'll encourage you to achieve your goals. and we won't make you sign some threatening non compete. if you decide to leave we wish you the best and you won't have to worry about us ever trying to sue you because that's just messed up.
see where you might fit best:
commission stylist
+ stylists who are just starting
+ want to learn/build a clientele
+ needing a base minimum pay
+ want a w2 (don’t want to worry about taxes, scheduling, or posting on social media)
independent stylist
+ stylists who are great at hair
+ around 25% or more booked
+ willing to post on social media
+ 2 month emergency fund (for stylists who are only planning to bring a few clients)
commission stylist — now hiring
commission stylists with yello are hired on as employees with a base minimum pay (dependent on experience) or a 50/50 split on total sales, whichever is greater. expect to work 2-3 days a week in the first few months as your books fill (and we'll help fill them with advertising and social media). as you grow we ask that you're willing to work up to 5 days a week.
we encourage our stylists to grow, whether that's with yello or somewhere else. however, when hired on we will ask that you stay a commission stylist for a minimum of 6 months before transitioning to become a full time independent contractor with yello.
