Education
Education is something we've always done and will always do - it's who we are. A crucial part of our mission is to nurture beauty professionals and apprentices. Our stylists attend monthly trainings conducted in-house as well as out sourced by professionals leading our industry. Education is not just for the `ohana at Ulupono - we invite professionals across the islands to learn with us because we believe that learning as a community only helps to strengthen our industry as a whole.
Another avenue that supports our mission to educate is our Haumana - the apprentices gaining real salon experience and strong theoretical foundation to support their growth in their chosen career path. Our background in beauty education has helped us to create a robust, structured, and clear path to fulfill the Beauty Operator license requirements set by the state of Hawai`i. With the support of their principle Kumu, Alaka`i of Education & Sales, and the rest of our Ulupono 'ohana, our Haumana are well equipped to learn and achieve their career and financial goals.
Our Haumana are eager to learn, see feedback as an opportunity for growth, are unafraid to try new things and make discoveries, value playing as a team, crave structure, enjoy being creative, and ultimately love working with people. Positions may not always be available, but if this resonates with you, we invite you to submit an application to discuss the Haumana program and your professional goals in more detail.
