Full-Time Starting Pay:
$20-$25 per hour + 100% of client tips
Additional Compensation:
10% commission on qualifying Head Spa membership/package sales About Rare Luxe Sanctuary Rare Luxe Sanctuary is a luxury beauty sanctuary specializing in healthy hair care, luxury hair extensions, and elevated beauty experiences. We are expanding our signature Head Spa experience and are looking for a polished, passionate, and highly motivated Head Spa Specialist to join our team. This position is ideal for a beauty professional who combines technical skill with exceptional hospitality and understands that luxury is found in the details. Our Head Spa experience is designed to provide guests with an elevated combination of scalp care, relaxation, hair care, and personalized pampering. We are looking for someone who can deliver that experience consistently while representing the Rare Luxe Sanctuary brand with professionalism, confidence, and care. Hospitality is at the heart of everything we do. About the Position The Head Spa Specialist is responsible for delivering Rare Luxe Sanctuary's signature Head Spa services to clients who book directly through our website. Our services include professional shampooing, conditioning, scalp treatments, steam treatments, head and neck massage, and a professional blow-dry. Our specialized Head Spa bed also provides mechanical compression for the arms and legs, as well as back massage features. While the equipment enhances the experience, the Specialist is responsible for providing the personalized, hands-on head and neck massage that makes the service feel truly luxurious. Clients may also choose to add neatly executed cornrows/scalp braiding as an additional service, so the ability to braid cleanly and professionally to the scalp is required. This is a hands-on service position and does not initially include management responsibilities. The successful candidate will be responsible for delivering exceptional services, maintaining the guest experience, supporting daily salon operations, creating social media content, and representing the Rare Luxe Sanctuary brand.
Head Spa Services Responsibilities include:
Perform all Rare Luxe Sanctuary Head Spa services according to established service protocols. Professionally shampoo and condition clients. Perform scalp cleansing, treatments, hydration services, and steam treatments. Provide relaxing and professional head and neck massage. Safely and confidently operate Head Spa equipment. Properly utilize the Head Spa bed's compression and massage features. Perform a professional blow-dry following each applicable Head Spa service. Perform neat, clean cornrows/scalp braiding for clients who purchase the applicable add-on service. Assess hair and scalp needs within the scope of your training and licensure. Maintain client comfort throughout the service. Communicate appropriately regarding water temperature, product application, massage pressure, and overall comfort. Provide appropriate at-home scalp and hair-care recommendations. Maintain accurate client service notes when required. Follow all Rare Luxe Sanctuary service protocols consistently. The Luxury Guest Experience At Rare Luxe Sanctuary, we're not simply performing a service — we're creating an experience. The Head Spa Specialist is responsible for creating a calm, welcoming, polished, and luxurious environment for every guest.
Responsibilities include:
Greet clients warmly and professionally. Create a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. Maintain a polished, well-groomed appearance consistent with Rare Luxe Sanctuary's luxury brand standards. Communicate confidently and professionally. Listen carefully to client concerns and preferences. Anticipate client needs whenever possible. Maintain appropriate professional boundaries and client confidentiality. Ensure the client feels comfortable and cared for throughout the appointment. Provide a seamless experience from arrival through departure. Educate guests about appropriate maintenance, products, memberships, and services. Encourage appropriate rebooking when applicable. You should be equally comfortable engaging in conversation with a guest or allowing them to completely relax and enjoy quiet time during their service. The Rare Luxe Standard At Rare Luxe Sanctuary, luxury is in the details. We expect our Head Spa Specialist to notice the things others may overlook: A perfectly prepared treatment room. A clean and organized workstation. A warm, welcoming greeting. The right massage pressure. A beautiful blow-dry. A properly stocked station. A relaxing client experience. A beautifully captured piece of content. We are looking for someone who takes ownership of their environment and their work. You should not need someone standing over you telling you what to do. If you see that something needs to be cleaned, organized, restocked, prepared, recorded, or addressed — you take initiative. If you're someone who waits to be told what to do, this likely isn't the right position for you. If you're someone who takes pride in doing things exceptionally well, we want to meet you. Sanitation & Safety Impeccable sanitation is a non-negotiable part of the Rare Luxe Sanctuary experience.
Responsibilities include:

Checking equipment before use. Ensuring the room is clean and guest-ready. Maintaining a visually beautiful and camera-ready environment. Completely sanitizing and resetting the room between clients. Restocking products and supplies. Maintaining the overall presentation of the Head Spa area throughout the day. Content Creation & Social Media Content creation is a required responsibility of this position. Rare Luxe Sanctuary is a highly visual luxury beauty brand, and documenting our services and guest experience is an important part of our marketing strategy. The Head Spa Specialist will be expected to learn and participate in our content-creation process.
Responsibilities include:
Learn Rare Luxe Sanctuary's content standards and brand guidelines. Capture quality video and photos of Head Spa services. Record before-and-after content when appropriate.

Capture content without disrupting the guest's luxury experience. Follow required client consent procedures. Occasionally participate in content while on camera. Assist with content for Instagram, TikTok, advertising, website marketing, and other platforms. Maintain a polished, camera-ready treatment environment. Represent the Rare Luxe Sanctuary brand professionally both on and off camera. You do not need to be a professional content creator when you apply. You do need to be comfortable learning, using technology, capturing content, and occasionally being on camera.
