Hairdresser seeking work, Vienna?

Not a chain. One salon.

Are you looking for work as a hairdresser in Vienna, a new position or the apprenticeship? Here, hairdressing and the nail salon sit under one roof — a small team in Wieden, everything close at hand and regulars who give us 4.8 stars on Google. We are at Favoritenstraße 68, 1040 Vienna (4th district), right by the U1 station Taubstummengasse.

We work with Wella and Olaplex, across every technique: cutting and styling, colour and highlights, balayage, hair extensions, perms and updos. If colour is your strength, you'll have plenty to do here.

Two positions are open: a salaried job, full-time or part-time — and an apprenticeship for anyone who wants to learn the craft from the ground up. For either one, we don't need a formal application letter.

Hairdresser, part-time (m/w/d)

Hairdresser wanted in Vienna (m/w/d)

Full-time or part-time, starting by arrangement — we decide together how many hours a week that will be. This is what your day here looks like.

01

Cutting & styling

Women's and men's cuts, blow-dry, finish. You work independently at the chair — with your own appointments.

02

Colour & balayage

Roots, full colour, highlights, bleaching and balayage — with Wella colour and Olaplex protection.

03

Consultation with the client

Listening, judging what is achievable, advising honestly. That is why clients come back.

04

Salon routine

Appointments, a clean station, hygiene. In a small team everyone pitches in — away from the chair as well.

Completed training or experience

What you bring

01

Completed apprenticeship

A completed hairdressing apprenticeship or comparable salon experience. Even straight out of your apprenticeship, you're in the right place here.

02

Confident with colour

Colour and highlights come easily to you. We do a lot of balayage — experience with it is a plus, not a requirement.

03

German at the chair

Enough German to understand what clients want and advise them honestly. An accent bothers nobody — silence does.

04

Reliability

Turning up on time, taking appointments seriously, working cleanly. In a small team every gap shows immediately.

Mon–Sat, closed on Sunday

What we offer

Two crafts, one roof

Hairdressing and the nail salon in the same space — one team, and we pass clients on to each other.

Demanding work

Balayage, hair extensions and updos are part of the everyday work here — not just wash, cut, blow-dry.

Predictable hours

The salon is open Mon–Sat 09:00–19:00 and closed on Sunday. Your work schedule is agreed together in advance.

Pay per KV

Paid according to the collective agreement for the hairdressing trade — the figures are stated openly in the key facts.

Position 02 · 3-year apprenticeship

The open apprenticeship

Want to learn the craft, not just watch it? The apprenticeship as a hairdresser (stylist) takes three years in Austria and runs alongside vocational school. Here you start with washing, care and preparation — and work your way up one skill at a time.

Because hairdressing and the nail salon share the same space, you will see colour, balayage and updos on real clients — not just on a mannequin head.

What it takes: completed compulsory schooling, reliability and enjoying working with people. We don't expect previous experience — that is exactly what the apprenticeship is for. A taster day beforehand is possible at any time.

Applying — FAQ

I am looking for work as a hairdresser — do you have any openings?

Yes. A salaried position as a hairdresser (m/w/d), full-time or part-time, and an apprenticeship are both open. A short message on WhatsApp is enough — a CV helps, we don't need a cover letter.

Full-time or part-time — how many hours can I work with you?

Both are possible. Just tell us how many hours suit you — we set the work schedule together in person. The salon is open Monday to Saturday from 09:00 to 19:00 and closed on Sunday.

What will I earn as a hairdresser under the collective agreement?

Pay follows the collective agreement for the hairdressing trade. The minimum is € 2,071 gross per month in the first year of practice on a full-time basis and rises with the years of practice to € 2,287 from the sixth year. Part-time is calculated pro rata. Pay above the minimum is something we discuss in person.

Can I do a trial day first?

Yes, and we recommend it. A day in the salon tells you more than any interview: how the team works, which clients come in and how the day runs. Message us on WhatsApp or call +43 664 75200395.

Do I need a completed apprenticeship to work with you?

For the salaried position, yes — either the completed apprenticeship as a hairdresser or comparable salon experience. Starting straight after your apprenticeship is no disadvantage. Without any training, the apprenticeship is the right way in.

I have no hairdressing training — can I do the apprenticeship with you?

Yes. Alongside the salaried position, an apprenticeship as a hairdresser (stylist) is open as well. It takes three years, runs alongside vocational school and starts with washing, care and preparation. No previous experience is needed, and a taster day beforehand is possible at any time.

How much do I get as an apprentice in the first year?

The apprentice pay (formerly called apprentice compensation) is € 804 in the first, € 921 in the second and € 1,244 in the third year — gross per month under the collective agreement for the hairdressing trade.

How much German do I need at the chair?

Enough German to understand what clients want and advise them honestly. An accent bothers nobody — silence does.

How do I apply — do I need a cover letter?

Informally: a message on WhatsApp, a call to +43 664 75200395 or a short e-mail to [email protected]. A CV helps, we don't need a cover letter. We discuss everything else at the salon.

One message is enough
