Isabelle A. | Esthetician at our Burnsville spa
I came to Cole’s Salon right out of school, and starting out, I was a bit nervous about stepping into a salon that had such a high level of experience. However, the thorough training process here made all the difference. The in-depth training at my own pace helped me feel not only comfortable but also welcomed into both the industry and the Cole’s family. It has been truly surprising how much of a family we are here. The support and encouragement from my colleagues have been overwhelming in the best way possible. It’s been fantastic to receive advice and tips on techniques and to see different perspectives that have expanded my own approach.
The most rewarding part of my role is the joy of making a difference in my clients’ lives. Whether it’s brightening their day or boosting their confidence, knowing I’ve made a positive impact is what makes this career so special for me. One of the highlights of my start at Cole’s was attending our 45th anniversary celebration. It was an amazing opportunity to meet more of my coworkers and experience firsthand the deep sense of camaraderie and love that defines this place. Getting to know the incredible women I work with and seeing how much they support each other was truly heartwarming.
Amy J. | Designer at our Burnsville salon
Reflecting on my career, I feel like I’ve been doing hair for much longer than 18 years, but in the best way possible. I didn’t fully realize at 19 how perfectly this career would fit me, but now, it feels like a perfect match. The relationships I’ve built with clients over the years are truly special, and many have been with me from the beginning. To all of them, I can only say, “WOW!”
A big thank you to my mentors and everyone who has supported me along the way. And a special shoutout to my husband and our moms for their help with the kids and managing our busy schedules. Your support allows me to do what I love.
Working at Cole’s has been the best experience, and I can’t recommend it enough. I am always surrounded by amazing people that never fail to brighten my day.
