ARE YOU READY TO GLOW?
Chicago's most in-demand salon is looking for its next great team member.
Salon Glow Chicago is growing, and we're looking for talented people who take pride in their work and their team to join us across the chair, the front desk, and behind the scenes. We've built more than a salon. We've built a place with real systems, real growth paths, and a culture people don't want to leave.
Our Mission
We serve our guests, team and community by providing customized salon experiences and guidance that foster confidence, connection and care beyond the salon.
Our Vision
To redefine the salon experience in Chicago by building a company known for exceptional people, unforgettable experiences, and a culture that transforms careers and lives, anchored by Glow Academy and a standard that grows with every new location we open.
OUR CORE VALUES
Powerhouse Mindset. How I lead myself. We own our growth, actions, and results.
​
Team Harmony. How I treat my teammates. We build each other up and create a culture people want to be part of.
​
Smooth Operators. How I execute. We execute with consistency, professionalism, and attention to detail.
​
The Glow Experience. How I serve guests. We create experiences that keep guests coming back and talking about us.
​
Skills can be taught. Core values are choices.
HOW WE GROW OUR PEOPLE
Real Growth. Real Standards.
Every track we offer, whether behind the chair, in operations, or in brand and marketing, has a clearly defined path forward, real income growth, and real criteria to get there. Promotions here are earned through performance, not simply handed out over time. That means when you move up at Salon Glow, it means something, and everyone around you knows you earned it.
This isn't a vague "grow with us" promise. It's a documented map.

As a stylist I understated how important it is to find a salon home that compliments you, yourself as much as you compliment your salon home. The culture at Salon Glow Chicago is very team based, and empowering stylists for the hard work we put in to be the difference between good, and great. I love that I am embraced for the stylist I am right now but also pushed to next level myself for me and for my guests. The sky is truly the limit here and we are proud of the incredibly fun, safe, happy, organized, work home we get to be a part of. - Tara
Working at Glow has been one of the best decisions I’ve made for my career. From day one, I’ve felt supported by a team that truly wants everyone to succeed. The education and mentorship have helped me grow so much as both a stylist and a person.
One of the best parts of working here has been the people. I’ve made amazing friendships at Glow, and everyone is always willing to support and encourage one another. It creates an environment that feels welcoming, collaborative, and genuinely enjoyable to be a part of.
I’m so grateful to be part of a team that invests in its people and makes coming to work something I look forward to every day. I’m proud to be a Glow girl!

A Message From Brittany
I still remember my first interview in this industry. I walked in hoping to feel like I belonged somewhere, and instead I left in tears, wondering if I'd chosen the wrong career at all. I promised myself that if I ever built something of my own, no one would ever walk through my doors and feel unwanted. I wanted to build a place where people feel welcomed the moment they arrive, not tolerated.
​
I did eventually find a salon I loved, until the day I decided to leave and build something of my own. My boss made that harder than it ever needed to be. I was devastated. But it taught me something I never forgot: no one should ever be made to feel bad for chasing their own dreams. So I built Salon Glow to celebrate people's wins, including the ones that eventually lead them somewhere else. Some people build their entire career here. Others use Salon Glow as a stepping stone to something bigger. Both are wins to me. I support the dream, whatever it looks like.
​
I wanted to build a place where people don't just clock in and get through the day. I wanted a place where you're actually excited to come to work, where your growth is taken seriously, and where the people around you genuinely have your back. That's not something I say lightly. It's something I've tried to build into every system here, from how we train, to how we promote, to how we treat each other on a hard day.
​
I believe you can have freedom and structure at the same time. I believe good people deserve to be paid what they're worth and given a real path forward, not just promises. And I believe the best teams are built on trust, not fear. I also put my team first, always. A rude customer will never have more power in my salon than my staff's safety and happiness. I believe you keep customers happy by keeping your employees happy first, and everything else follows from there.
If that sounds like the kind of place you want to grow in, I'd love to meet you. Not just to fill a chair or a desk, but to find someone who wants to build something meaningful with us.
​
With gratitude,
Brittany
Founder & CEO, Salon Glow Chicago
