The Short Version

Your talent, our house.

You handle the craft. We bring the room: location, front desk, booking, marketing, walk-ins, and a name people in Ottawa already trust. This agreement sets out how we share the work and the pay.

How Your Pay Works

Commission on every service.

You Earn
A commission on every service

You earn a commission on every braiding service booked through the chair. Walker's Finest keeps a share covering your station, tools, booking, front desk, and client marketing. Hair and extensions are billed to the client separately and never come out of your commission. Your exact commission is confirmed with you in person.

How We Run The Chair

Eight things we all live by.

Everyone cleans their own station.

Ownership included. You leave your space the way you'd want to find it — swept, wiped, and ready for the next client.

Client communication stays on Square.

All booking, confirming, and follow-up happens through the shop's system. We don't exchange personal numbers with clients — it keeps everyone protected and keeps the chair, not the phone, in charge.

Clients belong to the chair, not the stylist.

The people who sit with you found us through Walker's Finest. They stay Walker's Finest clients. No moving them off-book or taking them with you.

All work is booked and paid through Square.

Every service runs through the shop — booked, rung up, and settled there. No side work, no cash off the books, no exceptions.

No mobile service.

Braiding happens in the chair at Barrhaven. We're building a destination, and that means the work lives here.

Hair and supplies are billed separately.

Extensions and add-ons are charged to the client on their own line, never blended into the service price or your commission.

Show up, or give notice.

Your bookings are people who planned their day around you. Be there for them. If something comes up, tell us as early as you can so we can take care of the client.

Represent the finest.

The name on the door means something in this city. Every client leaves feeling like they got the best — because they did.
