This workplace has helped me become the stylist and leader I want to be, while supporting my growth. The mentorship program gave me invaluable insights—teaching me to approach consultations with more depth, formulate with purpose, and plan realistic outcomes that align with each client’s vision.

I love the workplace flexibility with my schedule and that I get to be part of a team who truly supports one another.

I love being a part of a team that lets me CREATE. I was starting to hate hair until I moved to Columbus and was given the opportunity to create my own job. Every day I learn something new. My mentors are so attentive.

I was really afraid I hadn’t learned enough in COS school. But the education program gave me great comfort.

I went from working solo in a suite to being part of a team again without giving up my individuality. I finally have balance!

I have appreciated the ability to explore many aspects of the business and have my growth be a priority.

Coming into a salon space for the first time was intimidating, but I’m happy to have found a team who always supports when needed.

Coming into a salon where mutual support is the standard has been incredible—especially after experiencing environments where that wasn’t the norm!

In my short time here I have seen and found the real meaning of a team, finding some of my favorite people. I feel like I’m making a difference.

Being able to have the choice of my schedule and knowing that I have a voice in what goes on in the salon I work at makes me feel included and heard.

I love it here because there is truly a path for everyone.

CREATE helped me build and grow my career. I love the team, knowledge, and constant educational opportunities! Sky’s the limit.

Having an option to get a jumpstart if I ever try to go out on my own is cool!! It is something I’ve never heard of with any other salon.

The CREATE workplace fosters a collaborative and vibrant energy unlike any workplace I have personally experienced. The company operates to bring out the best in every team member; everyone is held to a high standard and we support each other in creating excellence.

Every time things get hard, I'm so grateful for this salon group because the teamwork makes me feel like I can overcome anything.

I was ready to quit doing hair. Then I found the create salon collective- it's the first time I've felt like I could actually have a career that suits me.
