Do you want to fucking love your job?

5+ years of professional, behind-the-chair experience

Our salon runs on inclusive hourly / package / gratuity-free pricing and a client base that books directly with each stylist. Translation: this is not a hand-holding environment. You need to be fully confident handling a wide range of services and situations on your own.

✨ You run your schedule & your bookings

✨ You manage your clients

✨ You own your work

This level of responsibility is a huge part of what makes this place fucking awesome for both our clients and our team.

For us, it’s never about filling a chair. It’s about building a team of stylists who have the foundation to thrive here. In this case, experience is not optional. It’s essential.

If you’re ready to join a tight-knit ecosystem that values your skills, your autonomy, and your ability to handle your shit like a pro, now’s the time.

• We do not currently offer an apprentice program
• We do not have receptionist / front desk positions available

WFLYH is Different

  • Gratuity Free

    We’re gratuity-free because we believe your rate should be your real, guaranteed income → not a maybe, not a hustle.

    No chasing tips.

    No awkward money talks.

    No pressure to over service clients for extra cash.

    Focus on your craft, not people-pleasing performances.

  • A mountain landscape with snow-capped peaks in the background and rolling grassy hills in the foreground, featuring a modern building.

    Hourly Pricing

    Behind the scenes, we use an hourly pricing structure to determine each providers prices within our service menu.

    No awkward upselling.

    No confusing a-la-carte service menu.

    Pricing that makes sure every stylist is compensated for their time, talent, and work behind the chair.

  • Person leaning out of a moving car window, extending arm with bracelets, on a mountain road with trees and snow-capped peaks in the background.

    Schedule Freedom

    Curate a schedule that works best for you, your clients, and your circadian rhythm.

    No time-off requests. No required make-up days. Zero bartering with management or competing with coworkers for days off.

    WFLYH is open Tuesday through Sunday, with flexible scheduling available from 8am to 10pm.

  • A sticker with the words 'Pay Me' in bold black letters on a white background, placed on a wire fence, with some graffiti and peeling paint visible nearby.

    48% Commission

    Every commission based W2 employee is paid 48% commission of service sales.

    No sliding scale commissions, ever.

    No unethical “backbar fees”

    All meetings + trainings are paid, in addition to commission earnings, at the current minimum wage rate.

  • A glass jar filled with Euro coins with a small green plant growing out of it, placed on a wooden surface with a blurred wooden background.

    401k + 3% Match

    We’ll contribute an amount equal to 3% of your paycheck to your 401k retirement account when you contribute at least 3% yourself.

    In other words… Free money for future you.

    *After 6 months of employment:

  • People sharing a large pizza with various toppings at a dining table, with empty plates around.

    Profit Sharing

    Profit sharing is like getting a slice of the salon’s success pie → when the salon makes money, you get a tasty bonus.

    The 2-year vesting schedule means you gotta stick around for two years to grab your whole slice. Leave early, and you only take a bite of what’s yours.

  • Colorful swirling clouds of ink in water close-up, featuring pink, orange, blue, and white hues against a black background.

    Gender Free

    We’re not gender neutral, we’re gender free.

    This isn’t about being bland or middle-of-the-road. It’s about creating a space where everyone is seen, affirmed, and celebrated.

    Hair doesn’t have a gender, and no one should be charged more (or less) because of how they identify.

  • No Front Desk Fuckery

    WFLYH is built on trust, independence, and direct relationships between stylists and their clients.

    You run your books, your schedule, your money, your way.

    Simple as that.

  • Two people with bright red bob hairstyles, wearing matching white mesh jerseys with red accents, standing and talking in front of graffiti-covered wall.

    No Double Booking

    We don’t double book because your time matters; and so does your client’s.

    You both deserve a stress-free experience without the rush.

    Quality over quantity keeps everyone happy as fuck.

  • Colorful assortment of colored pencils arranged in a circle with tips pointing inward.

    Mentorship

    Franky spends 30 minutes one-on-one with each team member every 3 weeks.

    These sessions are all about:

    → setting goals

    → staying accountable

    → offering support and validation

    → tackling problems head-on

    → creating real moments for growth and learning

  • Salon or barber shop styling stations with black chairs, pink storage units, and mirrors against a dark wall, with a potted plant on top of one mirror.
