A supportive setting to ask questions, learn expectations, and understand day-to-day salon life
A pathway to future opportunities as a licensed stylist, where available
Program structure, scheduling, and responsibilities may vary by salon location, as internship programs are created and managed by individual Great Clips salon organizations.

FAQ
Q: Is this a paid internship? A: Compensation, if offered, varies by salon organization. Details will be shared during the interview process.
Q: Will I be cutting hair as an intern? A: Intern responsibilities vary by location and must follow state regulations. Most interns observe, assist, and learn rather than perform full services.
Q: Does this role lead to a job after graduation? A: Employment is not guaranteed, but many salons use internship programs to connect with students who may be a good fit after licensure.
Q: Are Hair Stylist Intern opportunities available at all Great Clips salons? A: No. Internship programs are completely optional and offered by select locally owned Great Clips salon organizations.
