Apprentice

Start your career the right way

We believe an apprenticeship is the best way to start your career as a stylist. Our program is 6 months to a year in length during which you will receive one on one instruction with our senior stylists to prepare you to take guests as new artist on the Zinke floor. While assisting, you will also attend our weekly in-house education. We are honored and proud to have our education program named a top education program in the country by Salon Today Magazine. As an assistant you will learn all forms of hair styling and how to efficiently operate in the day to day of the salon world. This busy time in your career will prepare you to handle what’s next.
