Hair Apprentice to Salon Owner at Fringe Artistic Salon and Spa

Job Description

Join the Fringe Family: Lead Stylist Apprentice & Associate

Are you a licensed stylist with some experience under your belt, looking for a mentor who will actually invest in your growth? Fringe Artistic Salon and Spa is looking for a dedicated, driven Apprentice/Associate to work directly one-on-one under our Owner and Lead Stylist.

We aren't just a salon; we're a family. We know the beauty industry can be a whirlwind, and we pride ourselves on being an open, accepting, and judgment-free home. Our goal isn't just to hire an assistant; it's to make sure you are happy, supported, and feel truly at home as you build your career with us.

The Role: One-on-One Mentorship

Our owner has a booming book and needs a right-hand stylist to help manage our high-energy, two-floor salon. You won't just be watching from the sidelines—you'll be in the thick of it.

Daily Hands-On Training: You will work directly under the Owner/Lead Stylist every single day, receiving personalized coaching on advanced techniques.
The "Personal Styling Day": We dedicate a specific day each week just for you. This is your time to bring in your own clients, build your personal book, and flex your creative muscles while still having the safety net of our expert team.
Monthly Continued Education: In addition to daily training, we host monthly in-house classes to keep your skills sharp and your trends current.
Client Management: You'll assist with luxury color applications, foiling, and shampoos, but you'll also be given the autonomy to consult and work hands-on with our established elite clientele.

Who You Are

Experienced & Licensed: You hold an active NJ Cosmetology License (or approved permit) and have some salon experience. You're ready to move past the "basics" and into high-level styling.
A "People Person": You have a professional appearance and a positive, enthusiastic attitude. You understand that great hair is only half the job—the other half is great service.
Motivated & Organized: You're a self-starter who stays on top of client logs and is always one step ahead of the lead stylist.
A Team Player: You value a kind, inclusive workspace and want to contribute to our "family-first" culture.
