Q & A mostly asked about our training program.

Q: Are you departmentalized?
A: Yes, our Stylists and Colorists are extensively trained in their respective department. During our training you will still have an overview of the other department as we work closely in teams.

Q: Why are you departmentalized?
A: We believe that Hair styling and cutting are very different than hair coloring. Each one is a specialty that requires a very different approach to education for exceptional knowledge and financial success. You will become a Master in the department you choose because the salon offers continued education both in the salons and abroad.

Q: How long is the program?
A: Our program is based on the merit system. You will be evaluated every other month. The faster you learn, the sooner you will graduate.

Q: What’s in it for me?
A: You will help other Technicians on paying clients. This will give you the confidence on how to care and deal with paying clients before you do your own and make great tips.

Q: How much $$$$$$ can I earn?
A: As a Charles Ifergan Stylist or Colorist, you can expect to earn $50,000 to $60,000 by the end of your second year after graduation. From there the sky is the limit!

Q: Is that true that Colorists make more money than Stylists?
A: Of our top 10 earners, 5 are Stylists and 5 are Colorists. Our Stylists can make a lot of money because they can book every 30 minutes and/or use the help of Assistants to do their blow dries.

Q: Can I work on photo shoots or fashion shows?
A: All our team members have the chance to participate in this fun and exciting part of our job.
