As the inventors of the solid shampoo bar, we felt it was about time to open up our own Shampoo Bar, celebrating the revolution and leading by example in the hair care industry.
The Shampoo Bar is a salon space where customers can book in for a hair wash and style or self-style.
You'll be based in the Shampoo Bar salon inside our incredible flagship store in Glasgow. With support of other Hair Stylists, Shampoo Therapists and the front of house team, you will be there to give seamless 5-star customer experience to provide the ultimate demo of a shampoo bar product with hair consultations bespoke to our customers wants and needs, following up with styling the clients hair. In addition to this you will also be working on our shop floor as a sales assistant.
Whenever you aren't in with clients you will be serving our customers and showcasing our products on the shop floor. This includes stocking, till service and in depth consultations- all to be delivered with a bit of Lush flair!
Please note; 'The Shampoo Bar' does not offer cutting or colouring services and is washing and styling only.
Diversity matters
We are building a brand that represents the people of the world. It's what you do that counts, and we are always looking to expand perspectives and voices to shape our future.
We see you, we celebrate you, we want you!
Who we are
You might know us as the inventors of the bath bomb, but there's more to this great-smelling, partly employee-owned, family-run company than pioneering cosmetics. We believe our business should put more back into the world than it takes and demonstrate that capitalism can be a force for good.
The Living Wage Foundation's statement 'a hard day's work deserves a fair day's pay' is one that we are proud to commit to in the UK. As an accredited Living Wage employer, we put our people first and fight cruel practices like animal testing, promote regeneration, and show that it is what's inside that counts - whether that's an ingredient in a product, or the minerals in a smartphone.
Please note: We may close this vacancy early if we receive an overwhelming response or our business requirements change.
