| Comments | Service Canada administrative data According to the Cosmetology Industry Association of British Columbia (CIABC), most salons pay entry level hairdressers at a rate just above minimum wage. Skilled and talented cutters can make very good money once they have an established clientele. Remuneration is most often commission based, with commissions ranging anywhere from 40 percent to 60 percent of the total service sale. Hairdressers may also make tips, generally between 10 percent and 15 percent of a total sale. These can add up, particularly at salons that charge high rates for services. Updated: 2010-01 | ||
