You can achieve your own lifestyle while working as a hairdresser

That is renting a space (freelance hairdresser). The younger generation is now increasingly thinking, "I want to work like everyone else, have a fun life, and have more free time to live a fun life." Naturally, hairdressers of the same generation share this same mindset.
It seems that the number of people choosing to become freelancers, which offers a high degree of discretion, is rapidly increasing, as they want to be able to control their own working hours and enjoy their work while spending more time with their clients.
It is also true that the number of contract salons that accept such clients is increasing in major cities across the country. Having a high degree of discretion means that success and failure are entirely your own responsibility. Some people may feel that this is extremely risky or difficult, but working on your own responsibility can actually be enjoyable. That is why Ikebukuro Beauty Salon Kumari offers a working style where you can find the time that suits you, such as renting a space (shared salon) (freelance).

What you need to know about working as a freelance hairdresser (renting a space/sharing a salon)
Do you feel anxious when you hear about being a freelancer? Do you think you can make money? Either way, it's up to you. Here are three points about working as a freelancer that you should know before you actually become one.

Part 2

Don't confuse salary with compensation. Many contract salons advertise high commission rates, making it seem like you're making more than double what you were earning as a full-time employee. However, for full-time employees, this is the amount after taxes and social insurance are deducted from the salary you receive. For freelancers, taxes and social insurance premiums are not deducted, so you must pay your own taxes and insurance premiums. Full-time employees are covered by employment insurance and other insurance, and receive a certain amount of stable income from their company. Freelancers are paid only for the work they do, so compensation can fluctuate greatly from month to month. They also have to calculate their income by filing annual tax returns.

Part 3

It's also important to maintain your skills and invest in yourself! In the freelance world, there's no excuse for not knowing or not being taught. You need to learn for yourself, not blame others for things you can't do. If you believe in improving your skills yourself, you should consider becoming a freelancer. Nowadays, it's easy to make connections with others in the beauty industry, thanks to social media and other tools. You'll also need to make an effort to get to know fellow beauty professionals and keep up with current trends and ways of working. Whether you can succeed as a freelancer for many years will depend on whether you enjoy learning on your own.

Part 1

The biggest benefit is the amount of discretion you have. Long working hours are the norm for hairdressers. You also need to be able to cooperate with other members of the team, and your days are filled with work. However, as a freelancer, your job is to treat customers, so your compensation simply depends on the time you put in, your skills, and your ability to make suggestions. You can also decide on other things like side jobs and your family situation at a pace that suits you. In other words, the biggest benefit is having greater discretion.

The advantages and disadvantages of renting a space in a beauty salon (shared salon)

Benefits of the beauty salon rental system

This "shared salon" system of renting space is a fairly popular way of working in the United States and is a common system that has become widespread.

This system is gradually becoming popular in Japan as it offers great benefits to both the hairdressers who work there and the customers, and it is expected that the number of such salons will continue to increase.

Benefits for working hairdressers

From the perspective of a hairdresser, the advantage is that they don't have to be at the salon for a set number of days or dates, so they can work efficiently by combining their schedules.

Benefits for customers

Each customer is treated one-on-one by the same hairdresser from start to finish.

At beauty salons, it is common for the stylist to provide a consultation and then have an assistant handle the perm or color, but by having one stylist complete the entire process, customers are pleased with this system as it allows them to accurately create the hairstyle they envision and realize it. There are also salons that use medications that the stylist is particular about.

Disadvantages of renting a space at a beauty salon

Since the rental fee is a "shared salon," the location is under the control of the salon owner, so there may be times when the location becomes unavailable due to unexpected circumstances. Also, there may be times when the stylist is unable to provide services on a certain day or at a certain time.

Disadvantages for working hairdressers

Since the customer is responsible for the hairdresser, if the hairdresser becomes unwell or has an emergency, they may not be able to attend to the customer. Since there is no assistant or replacement staff, this can be very inconvenient for the customer.

If you are not familiar with the place, you will need to become familiar with the mirror rental location, as there are rules that must be followed depending on the salon's tools, salon rules, and rental location. Since the hairdresser is not always there, it is a disadvantage for the customer to have to coordinate their schedule with the stylist.

What is the difference between a salon that rents out space and a salon that outsources services?

In reality, they are both freelancers, but there are some differences...

Salon space rental (shared salon)

- Work in a salon, paying a daily/hourly fee

・You can treat only your own customers for a short period before going independent.

- Used during store renovations

・Married people who want to do it for pocket money

・We cannot attract new customers.

You can set your own prices based on your skills and services.

Contract salon

- You are bound by the salon's rules and time limits

・New customers can be attracted

-Prices must be set according to the salon.

・It is difficult to have a side job. *Compared to the bad salons that rent out space.

-You may earn more than you would at a salon that rents out space.
