K Bella Hair Studio & Spa in Brighton offers a limited number of cosmetology apprenticeships designed for motivated individuals who want to build a strong foundation before working behind the chair. Our apprenticeship program focuses on real-world salon experience, professional growth, and long-term success - not just completing required hours.

Why Apprentice at K Bella
K Bella is a busy, established salon that has served the Brighton community since 2009. We have expanded multiple times and continue to grow, earning Best of Livingston County recognition across multiple categories year after year.
As an apprentice, you’ll work side by side with experienced stylists and technicians while learning how a successful salon truly operates. This program is ideal for individuals who want more than technical skills - it’s designed to prepare you for a confident, successful career behind the chair.
You’ll gain hands-on experience assisting with color services, shampooing, client preparation, and maintaining a professional salon environment. Apprentices also learn inventory management, product knowledge, and the daily operations that contribute to a smooth, high-performing salon.
Who This Apprenticeship Is For
Applicants must be at least 18 years old and a high school graduate. A willingness to learn, strong work ethic, and professional attitude are essential. Apprentices are expected to become knowledgeable in the product lines carried in the salon and to actively participate in day-to-day salon operations.
This program is best suited for individuals who are serious about their career in cosmetology and want to graduate fully prepared to work behind the chair with confidence.
What You’ll Gain
Apprentices receive discounted salon and spa services, opportunities for product commission, and direct mentorship from seasoned professionals - including salon owner and internationally trained stylist and educator, Kristan Sayers.
Beyond technical skills, apprentices learn how to manage clients, build a career path, understand salon business operations, and explore opportunities such as education or salon ownership in the future. Many of our apprentices graduate ready to transition seamlessly into stylist roles.
