Structured Learning: The program is structured with multiple levels, assessments, and performance metrics to ensure new stylists progress at their own pace.
Business Skills: Associate programs include business-building components to prepare stylists for long-term success, not just technical skills.
Mentorship: Mentoring by experienced stylists is a key element of associate programs, helping new hires integrate into the salon culture and community.

Accelerated Learning: Associate programs are like a second phase of education, focusing on honing skills and adapting to the salon's specific environment.
Preparation for Success: Associates are encouraged to build their clientele, achieve rebooking goals, and understand salon operations before becoming full-fledged stylists.
Adaptable Hiring: Salons may hire associates either specifically for a particular salon or hire them across multiple locations based on the needs and readiness of mentors.
