About Emerge Modern Salon

Emerge Modern Salon is a mindful, education-focused salon committed to excellence in technical skill, artistry, professionalism, and the continued evolution of our industry.

We believe great hair is about more than the finished look. It is about creating an experience where people feel seen, cared for, and confident-and building a workplace where artists can do meaningful work while continuing to grow.

We are looking for talented, motivated stylists who value excellence, education, collaboration, sustainability, and community and who want to be part of a supportive, healthy, noncompetitive team.

Our Culture

At Emerge, we are committed to:

• Excellence in technical skill, artistry, and professionalism
• A mindful and conscious approach to beauty and business
• A supportive, healthy, and noncompetitive environment
• Collaboration rather than competition
• Sustainable salon practices and environmentally responsible decision-making through our partnership with Green Circle Salons and dedication to earth friendly product alignments.
• Giving back to our community through leadership, volunteer opportunities, fundraising events, donation drives, and other community initiatives
• Personal and professional development for every team member
• Leadership development and opportunities for growth within the company

The Role

As an Emerge Stylist, you will provide exceptional hair services while creating a welcoming, thoughtful experience for every guest.

You will be expected to continually develop your technical skills, cultivate your own artistic voice, build strong client relationships, and contribute positively to the culture of the salon.

We value stylists who are curious, accountable, self-motivated, emotionally intelligent, and committed to being lifelong learners.

• Take ownership of the quality of your work and your continued artistic development

Professional & Business Development

• Maintain professional standards for scheduling, punctuality, communication, and client follow-up
• Develop and maintain a healthy clientele and personal business
• Work toward individual performance and career goals
• Participate in education, coaching, trainings, and team development opportunities

• Contribute to the overall success of the salon, not simply your individual book of business

• Contribute to a collaborative, supportive, and noncompetitive team environment
• Communicate respectfully and effectively with coworkers and leadership
• Participate in team meetings, trainings, and salon initiatives
• Support fellow artists and contribute to a culture of shared knowledge
• Participate in community events, charitable initiatives, and sustainability efforts when possible
• Represent the values and professionalism of Emerge both inside and outside the salon

Education & Growth

Education is at the heart of Emerge.

We believe that continued learning keeps artists inspired, confident, and relevant. Our education opportunities include:

• Monthly in-salon education with Emerge trainers

• One-on-one business coaching for the entrepreneurs within our company
• Ongoing opportunities for leadership development
• Support and additional benefits for industry educators
• Opportunities to develop your own specialty, expertise, and artistic voice

Why Emerge?

We believe a salon can be both high-performing and deeply human.

At Emerge, we are building a salon where talented people can do excellent work, keep learning, build a sustainable career, and contribute to their community.

If that sounds like the kind of environment where you would thrive, we'd love to meet you.
