Work At Boho

The Salon

There are many salons, but only one Boho Salon. The front-end of our salon is designed with our clients in mind: comfortable, stylish, and clean. The back-end is designed with our stylists in mind: functional, affordable, and incentivized. We have spent many years working to find the perfect balance between business and pleasure… this is it.

Survive or Thrive

Many stylists accept the reality that their career is simply paying for the essentials – they are just surviving professionally. At Boho, we believe in improving our quality of life. We believe in thriving! Artists thrive when their energy is focused on the craft and most of us struggle in business because of this. Financial statements, balance sheets, inventory, lead generations, cleaning, and marketing take a lot of energy; energy that could be used for creating. It is this reason that many stylists are attracted to commission-based salons that do everything for them like schedule clients, offer benefits, provide equipment/products, and answer calls. Sounds great… but this all comes at a huge expense to the stylist. Commission-based salons may take 50-60% of your income. Ouch! After taxes, product charges, and insurance are withheld there is not much income left over for the stylist. That is why many stylists start looking for a smarter option once they have developed a large clientele list – and this is how Boho thrives! We provide most of the benefits other salons do without taking all income out of your pocket. 

The Right Fit

All stylists have their own way of doing things. Their own style. Some thrive in an environment where there is a management team to help with all the little things, but Boho is right for those stylists who are no longer in need of management and who are able to handle their own business in exchange for more income. Our stylists are bound by an agreement to maintain the highest standard of professionalism and free to be themselves otherwise. If that sounds good, then Boho may be right for you.

The Difference

We have created the following charts to show the comparison between commission-based salons and Boho Salon:

 

Commission-Based Salons

* Using an average 50% commission split with the salon. Not taking into account income tax withholdings.

Boho Salon

* Based on annual $100K in gross services performed.  Not taking into account income tax due.

In the example above, a full-time stylist working at Boho Salon earns an average 21% more income than a stylist working for a commission-based salon. In the commission model, the profit margin never changes for the stylist – they are very limited in how much profit they can create for themselves – the more services they provide, the more money they split with the salon. At Boho, the more services a stylist provides, the more money they keep! A fully-booked stylist could easily earn TWICE as much working at Boho than if they were at a commission-based salon, effectively doubling their income by simply working for themselves at Boho.

How Boho Works

Our Salon Model is designed to maintain professionalism, while giving the stylist freedom to develop their personal business and earn the most money possible.

Here is how it works:

Its that simple! Every stylist keeps 100% of their service dollars and 15% commission on retail sales! The only “cut” the salon takes is a flat rate station rent.
