WHO WE ARE
15 years of doing
things differently.
We opened Reflektion in 2012 with a simple idea: a salon where stylists are treated like the professionals they are. Over 500 five-star reviews, 100+ new clients a month, and two thriving locations later, that idea is still the foundation of everything we do. We're not just a place to work — we're a place to build something that's actually yours.
OUR VISION
We believe every woman is already beautiful — exactly as she is.
Our vision is a world where you never have to change yourself to fit someone else's idea of beautiful. Made with color and care that's good for you, good for our staff, and good for our planet.
OUR MISSION
Elevate your outer appearance to match your inner beauty.
Our mission is to make you look in the mirror and think —
I didn't know my hair could look this good!
A VALUES-LED SALON
What we believe in.
These aren't words on a wall. They're the standards we hold ourselves to as owners and a team — and the experience you can expect when you join.
01
Act like a Professional
We hold ourselves to a high standard — in our craft, in how we treat clients, and in how we show up for each other. Being a professional means your work and your presence speak for themselves.
02
Pursue Growth
Continuous learning is non-negotiable. From your first day to your hundredth client, we invest in your growth with structured training, mentorship, and access to the best educators in the industry.
03
Practice Sustainability
We choose products that are low-chemical and safe — for clients, for stylists, and for the planet. We aim to build sustainable careers for our staff as well. Sustainability isn't an add-on here; it's built into how we operate.
04
Foster Community
We're a team, not just coworkers. The culture here is built on real support — the kind where your colleagues celebrate your wins and show up when things are hard. Our clients are our people and we show up for them too.
No gatekeeping. No guessing. No commission anxiety. We give you the compensation, the training, the coaching, and the clients — and we tell you exactly where you stand, every month.
ALL POSITIONS
Find your fit.
We hire for two paths — a structured foundational program for stylists early in their career, and a direct placement for experienced stylists ready to bring their book to a better environment. Click into each role to learn more.

Virtual Interview
If we think there's a fit, you'll hear from us within 5 business days. We'll schedule a short virtual call — usually 20–30 minutes — to get to know each other, answer your questions, and talk through what the role actually looks like day to day.
04
In-person interview + Shadow Day
If the virtual call goes well, we'll invite you in. You'll meet the team, see the space, and spend time on the floor with us. This is a real look at what working here feels like before either of us makes a commitment.
