Bulldog Barbers, Luxury barbershop & colourhouse are looking for some one inspirational, aspirational, fun and artistic to join a growing shop in the highly affluent area of Sunninghill. Situated in the suburb just off Ascot, nearby to the stunning Virginia waters / Great Windsor Estate and exclusive Wentworth estate. This job offers a an opportunity to create a fantastic client base.
We are ready to expand our team at our growing Barbershop / Children's hair salon. We specialise in Men's Luxury services and Children's hair cutting services. However, we are best known for being specialists in cutting special needs childrens' hair. The Salon is a super relaxed, friendly and fun workspace and we are super excited to be adding another edition to our team.
Bulldog is not only unique but will be setting the Bar high and offering a service that no other has before in the area, in a cool, modern, cutting edge styled shop.
A fantastic oppurtunity to take your barbering / hairdressing career to new heights!
This year we will be expanding our team in light of renovating our shop by the end of 2026, early 2027, to create 2, state of the art, immersive, Sensory hair cutting rooms.
The applicant must enjoy their job and want to be the best they can possibly be, while still being able to enjoy an easygoing relaxed barbershop atmosphere that men enjoy.
It is an absolute must, that the applicant is patient and enjoys cutting children's hair, as we specialise in children who dislike having their hair cut, and take pride in offering equal opportunities to special needs clientele / children.
The applicant must be able to adapt and be willing to take on training in special needs hair cutting.
Our SEN services are unique, and challenging, but extremely rewarding, and for the right applicant, the position will be a fantastic opportunity to learn new skills and approaches to being a stylist / barber.
We have a high volume of children coming through our doors and the applicant must be prepared for this.
At Bulldog, quality is more important than quality. We see hair as an art! We will be providing top quality hair cutting services alongside the owner who will be specialising in all chemical services including colouring, straightening, and perming. There will be future opportunities for the right applicant, to be fully trained in all aspects of chemical services and potential to move further into the grooming industries, such as hair removal and skin care.
You will have more time than the average barbershop for each client, with room to be creative and have a greater job satisfaction.
That being said, experience in the industry is important. The applicant must have 5 years minimum experience on the shop floor and have an exceptional eye for detail and confidence to go with it.
The applicant must be qualified in either;
NVQ level 2 in Barbering , NVQ2 level 2 in hairdressing, or even better, qualified in both.
