hi, i used to rent a chair and at the time i got 60%, and 40% went to the salon, although when the salon went V.A.T i had to add on the 17.5 % but we also increased the prices at that time.... i totaly belive i was on a good deal,but saying that the more you work the more you earn, its a good insentive, also if i was on hols i didnt get paid and if i had a quiet day then it was my tuff luck.
I now own my own salon, and have girls on the same rate.. so now the boot is on the other foot it does hurt a bit.
If you want a good stylist and you want to keep them its what you have to do never let a good stylist slip through your fingers.

Thanks for your reply. Do you have a written agreement between you and the stylists who rent chairs.

thanks.
