Protect Your Salon: The Complete Hair Stylist Employment Agreement
Hiring a new stylist is exciting, but it's also a major business step. What happens if they leave and try to take your client list? Who really owns that viral reel they filmed at your station? Stop guessing and get professional protection.
Our Lawyer-Drafted Hair Stylist Employment Agreement Template is your one-time purchase for peace of mind. Designed specifically for salon and studio owners, this contract clearly defines the employment relationship, sets expectations, and—most importantly—protects your hard-won business assets.
This is not a generic, one-size-fits-all form. It's a comprehensive agreement that tackles the specific challenges of the modern beauty industry.
What Makes This Contract Essential?
This template gives you the legal framework to:
Secure Your Social Media: The "Content Ownership" clause is built-in, ensuring you (the employer) own all photos, videos, reels, and social media content created by the employee on your behalf
Protect Your Client List: Includes a strong "Non-Solicitation" clause to prevent departing stylists from actively poaching your clients and staff .
Defend Your Business: A "Covenant Against Competition" (Non-Compete) clause helps prevent a stylist from leaving and immediately working for a competitor within your local area .
Limit Your Liability: A vital "Indemnification" clause means the employee agrees to be responsible for claims arising from their own negligence (like a client injury), protecting you and your salon from costly legal fees
Set Clear Expectations: Clearly outlines all job duties , work schedules , and compensation—including how to handle tips and optional product commission
Handle Terminations Professionally: Establishes clear rules for termination, including for "gross misconduct," to protect your salon's reputation and operations .
