Position: Hair Stylist (Booth renter)
Hi there! My name is Albert and my husband, Casey and I own Coda Salon. We are 32 and 36, respectively. We opened Coda in 2020 (started building during lockdown) and have grown into a new location that we opened this year. Casey has been a stylist for 20 years and I have been a stylist business coach and salon manager before opening Coda.
Coda Salon is located in the Pearl in Portland, OR. We are a 6-chair salon located on the top floor (with amazing skylights!) of a beautiful historic building. We consider ourselves a high-end salon, without the pretentiousness. We provide high-end (quality) services and experiences without being arrogant or judgmental. We are building a team of experienced booth renters that want the autonomy of a suite-like environment within the context of a 6-stylist team.
What we are looking for:
- 10+ years of experience behind the chair (roughly)
- Sturdy client base (preferably with the ability to take on some new clients)
- Self-driven and responsible
- Able to be a part of a small, experienced team
- Professional appearance, clientele and aesthetic that would represent Coda well
- Confident and humble enough to be able to help and learn (from a technical perspective)
- $1,250/month with a one year commitment and 4% annual increase
What we offer:
- 24/7 access, no schedule limitations
- Direct contact with owners
- You provide and profit off of your own product line. You buy and use the product(s) of your choosing for backbar and styling (with owner approval) and you're allowed to buy and sell as much retail as you'd like, within the confines of your space, and you keep all the profit--ownership takes 0% of those sales.
- Laundry service is provided. Towels, capes, etc.
- Monthly online education and occasional in-person education.
- Supplies provided; sparkling water, coffee, tea for clients. sugar, creamer, etc. Purified drinking water. General salon supplies; soap, hand soap, barbicide, clippercide.
- Great reputation both online and in the community. We have great reviews on google and have been named on the top 20 salons of Portland list for 4 years in a row (and awarded #1 in 2024)
- We have plans to apply as a top 200 salon (in Salon Today magazine)
- We do have limitations on allowing keratin treatments or perms into the salon; if you provide those services, we'll have to chat about that and see where that conversation goes.
I'm sure there are details I'm missing and we're happy to talk through any questions you may have.
