Producing Lash Salon Operator

Deka Lash Louisville, Kentucky $25–$60 an hour

We are looking for a licensed beauty professional who has the talent, drive, and leadership ability to run a salon business — but may not yet have the capital to open one independently.

This is not a basic manager job. This is an opportunity for someone who wants the autonomy, responsibility, and upside of operating a salon without personally signing a lease, buying equipment, funding the buildout, or taking on the full financial risk of ownership.

The ideal candidate may have dreamed of owning a concept like Deka Lash, a lash studio, or a beauty salon, but is looking for the right platform to prove herself first.

What You’ll Do

Produce services as a licensed beauty professional
Lead daily studio operations
Help recruit, train, coach, and retain service providers
Drive memberships, rebooking, retail, reviews, and client retention
Maintain high service standards and a strong client experience
Manage scheduling, productivity, cleanliness, and team accountability
Treat the business like it is your own

Who This Is For

This role is ideal for someone who:

Is licensed and actively producing revenue
Has management or lead-stylist experience
Wants more than a job
Would love to own a salon someday
Has strong work ethic and attention to detail
Can lead a team while still serving clients
Wants autonomy, influence, and performance-based upside
Is entrepreneurial but does not currently have the money or risk tolerance to open alone

What You Get

The ability to operate with real autonomy
A business platform already funded and supported
Leadership authority without the startup investment
Compensation tied to your production and the studio’s success
A chance to build, grow, and prove yourself as an operator
The feeling of ownership without the financial burden of ownership

Compensation

Compensation may include:

Pay from your own service production
Tips
Retail and membership incentives
Team performance bonuses
Studio revenue or profit-based incentives
Growth bonuses tied to hiring, retention, reviews, and sales goals

The Right Fit

We want someone who thinks like an owner, leads like a manager, and produces like a top professional.

If you have always wanted to run your own salon but have not had the capital, confidence, or opportunity to do it alone, this could be the next best step.

Pay: $25.00 - $60.00 per hour

Application Question(s):

Have you ever seriously considered opening your own salon, lash studio, or beauty business? If yes, what stopped you?
If you were given the opportunity to run a studio like it was your own, what would you focus on first in the first 90 days?
Are you currently producing revenue as a licensed beauty professional? If yes, what services do you perform and what does a typical week look like?
Describe a time you had to lead, train, or hold another beauty professional accountable. What happened?
What parts of business ownership excite you most: sales, hiring, training, marketing, operations, client experience, financial performance, or team leadership? Why?
This role offers autonomy and performance upside, but not immediate ownership equity. Why would that still be attractive to you?
