What are the responsibilities and job description for the Barber position at SLIK Barber Lounge?
We're not looking for a chair renter. We're looking for the right person.
SLIK Barber Lounge in Florham Park, NJ is hiring barbers who want more than just a chair. We're
building something different — a premium barbershop where barbers are employees (W2), not independent
contractors. You get stability, a brand behind you, and a future worth building toward.
What makes SLIK different:
- W2 employment — not 1099, not booth rental. You're part of the team.
- Modern, premium facility in Florham Park
- A chair that's already warm. Our clients are currently waiting 2 weeks to get booked. We're not
slow — we're overbooked. You won't be sitting around hoping someone walks in. You'll step into demand
from day one, with consistent income from week one. We offer an hourly rate while you ramp up, then
transition to commission as your book fills — so there's zero risk of empty weeks.
- A strong shop brand that works with you — we invest in the SLIK name, and you bring your own hustle
to build yours alongside it
- A growth path that goes beyond just cutting hair — ask us about it in the interview
- Mentorship and ongoing training — we help you level up
- Creative freedom to do your best work within the vision you and your clients create together
Who we're looking for:
- Licensed NJ barber (or willing to transfer license)
- Good character first — we can teach technique, we can't teach attitude
- Growth mindset — you want to get better, and you're ready to step into a strong client base and keep
building from there
- Reliable, professional, team-oriented
- Some experience preferred, but we'll train the right person
You don't need to be a rockstar. You need to be someone who shows up, wants to improve, and cares
about the craft. The owners are barbers themselves — they work alongside you and invest in your
development.
What you'll get:
- Steady, reliable income from the start
- A shop with a premium brand and real demand behind it
- A real growth path in this industry — not just a chair, but a future
- A team that has your back
Ready? Apply now. Tell us a little about yourself — where you're cutting now, what you're looking for,
and why you want to make a move.
