Job description
We are Glasshouse Salon - London's leading sustainable hair salon that specialises in natural and organic products. We have recently reopened in a brand new, state-of-the-art space on Mare Street, Hackney. We are on the lookout for talented hair stylists at all levels to join our close-knit team during an exciting time for the business.
Who are we
Glasshouse Salon is situated in the creative community of Hackney. We've made a name for ourselves as a leading figure in the green beauty industry. We specialise in modern, uncomplicated cuts and colour using only natural and organic products, minimising the use of harsh chemicals.
The salon is the brainchild of Olivia Crighton, a hair stylist and colour expert originally from New Zealand, who has worked with i-D, Tank, Vogue and many others. We pride ourselves on operating using the most sustainable methods possible, and offering our clients a unique experience in an un-intimidating environment.
We are also a dedicated retail destination for natural and organic beauty, stocking everything from toxin-free makeup to botanical skincare, both in the salon and online at Glasshouse Shop.
Who we are looking for
We are looking for creative and talented hair stylists to join the Glasshouse team. This is a unique opportunity to be part of a salon environment which practices what it preaches - we put hair condition at the forefront of everything we do and deliver modern cuts and colour in a fast-paced environment. We’d love to hear from you if:
- You are keen to get on board with an ammonia-free colour and Organic Colour Systems’ high-performing colour and care range.
- You are looking to work in a salon that minimises the use of chemicals, prioritises hair condition and cares for its staff and clients in the process.
- You are willing and open to learning new techniques and working with new products.
- You are well put-together and interested in fashion, beauty and wellbeing (we especially like people who are trend-aware, not necessarily trend-led).
- You’re a team player. We’ve worked hard to minimise any hierarchy often present in traditional salons - we like everyone to pitch in at every level.
- You can communicate confidently, giving bespoke consultations and building great relationships with clients.
What we offer
- The chance to make a real impact in a sustainable salon that is at the forefront of the natural and organic hair industry.
- A colour specialist salon that focuses on creative colour and techniques.
- Weekly training and specialised workshops.
- The opportunity to work with safer, gentler organic and natural products from the likes of Oway, Sans [Ceuticals], RMS Beauty and Ilia.
- Regular opportunities to be involved in shoots, shows and projects for our popular online magazine, Glasshouse Journal.
- Cost price on all Glasshouse Shop hair and beauty products.
- A friendly environment that prioritises team wellbeing. We are not just a professional team, but a close-knit group of individuals who operate in a positive, ethical way.
