Salon Leader / Licensed Cosmetologist - League City

Salon Manager / Lead Stylist – Growth Opportunity

FS Cut & Color is looking for a strong salon leader who loves doing hair, building a team, serving guests, and helping a salon grow.

This is a great opportunity for a licensed cosmetologist who wants more than just a chair. We are looking for someone who can lead by example behind the chair while also helping create a positive, professional, guest-focused salon culture.

Our Salon Manager / Lead Stylist helps drive the success of the salon by delivering excellent guest service, coaching the team, supporting daily operations, and helping the salon reach its goals.

This is a working manager role. You will spend a large portion of your time serving guests behind the chair while also helping lead the team, maintain standards, and support the business.

We are looking for someone who is dependable, upbeat, solution-oriented, and ready to help build something strong.

Why This Opportunity Is Different

At FS Cut & Color, we are not just looking for someone to manage tasks. We are looking for a leader who wants to help build a salon culture where guests feel cared for, stylists feel supported, and the business grows.

This role is a great fit for someone who wants:

• A leadership role in an established salon
• Walk-in traffic and repeat guests
• The ability to earn behind the chair while leading
• A team environment with room to grow
• The chance to influence culture, standards, and guest experience
• Potential future growth opportunities, including a possible path toward ownership for the right person
