Hi geeks,
Ok, so I opened a new salon just over 4 months ago now and I have a self employed beautician.
Upon opening we discussed uniform and said that we would wear plain black & white only.. At the beginning all was great but over the past couple of months she has really slipped and the things she is wearing is so unprofessional.. Today for example: pale jeans with ripped knees, a black studded belt, trainers and a festival tshirt!!!!! .. And she is a beautician!!!!!! I gave her a black tunic that I had and she wore it for all of 2 days and is back to looking like this?! .. I have now ordered tshirts for both of us, fitted plain black tops with the company logo printed on them.. Whether this will work long time, or if it will be a short term fad, I'm not sure.
If I employed her, I would feel fine to say that her workwear is unacceptable, but because she is self employed and renting a room off of me, I don't know how to approach the situation?
This is affecting the reputation of my salon and therefore my business also so something needs to change, but does anyone have any advice/tips on how to approach the topic?!
Thanks geeks.
