Job Descrption
Join Our Team as a Hairdressing Assistant in Covent Garden, Central London
Our salons in New York, Tokyo and London are constantly expanding to provide services to satisfy our growing clientele. We are now looking for a Hairdressing Assistant to join our team at our salon in Covent Garden, Central London.
Our philosophy is simple: "We seek the happiness of our clients and ourselves". If our clients are happy, we are happy. If there are problems, we believe in listening and solving them together. As professionals, we don't compromise on quality and we always prioritise customer satisfaction, not just technical skills.
The first skill you will learn is our original shampoo and head and shoulder massage service. Although this may not be a common skill/service for local hairdressers, it is a key part of your role as an 'assistant' in this salon, going beyond just cleaning duties.
While these responsibilities are important, we understand they may not be the most glamorous. However, we... understand that everyone wants to grow into a stylist quickly and use their creativity. Our assistants practice daily, even after work, showing their dedication to improving their skills.
Our work culture may be different from typical local salons, with a strong emphasis on the high standards of Japanese and Asian culture, so motivation and resilience are key.
We do not require extensive experience, as we provide full training, but we are seeking candidates who are hardworking, friendly, and dependable.
