THE LAUREN ASHTYN COLLECTION

Travel Stylist

Independent Contractor · National Pop-Up Events

POSITION TYPE

Contract (1099 Independent Contractor)

LOCATION

Our brand is based in Spartanburg, SC — travel required to markets nationwide

SALARY / PAY RANGE

$3,500–$7,000 average per show, combined commission and gratuity

OVERVIEW

The Lauren Ashtyn Collection is on a mission to help women feel confident and beautiful. We're on the road, bringing our show to women who can't come to our home salons, and our Travel Stylists bring that mission to life at pop-up shows and events nationwide. This role delivers an exceptional client experience with toppers, wigs, and hair extensions. This position is filled through our established Travel Stylist pathway, so you’ll move through hands-on training and certification before stepping fully into the role.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Represent The Lauren Ashtyn Collection at pop-up shows and events across the country, delivering consultations and services with our toppers, wigs, and hair extensions.
• Work closely with clients in a fast-paced show environment — moving efficiently while making sure every client feels cared for, understood, and fully educated about their hair.
• Travel to event cities: flying in, helping with setup, working long event days, packing out, and traveling home.
• Be available for both weekday and weekend shows, with a minimum of 14 shows per year.
• Work comfortably on camera alongside content creators throughout events.
• Represent the Lauren Ashtyn brand exclusively — while serving as a Travel Stylist, you will not provide topper, wig, or extension services for other brands.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• An active cosmetology license and hands-on experience with toppers, wigs, extensions, or other alternative hair.
• A genuine love for helping women feel confident and beautiful, along with a collaborative, easy-to-work-with attitude, reliability, and coachability.
• Comfort with frequent travel and long, physically active event days.
• Comfortable being on camera and working alongside content creators throughout events.
• Strong client communication skills and a polished, professional presence.

COMPENSATION

Once you're certified, have been offered a position, and are stepping into it, you'll earn commission plus gratuity on a structure that grows with tenure: 5% commission plus 90% of gratuity for shows 1–12, 7% commission plus 90% of gratuity for shows 13–24, and 10% commission plus 90% of gratuity from show 25 onward.

On average per show, combined commission and gratuity across all tiers range from $3,500 to $7,000.

THE PATH TO THIS ROLE

New Travel Stylists join us through our Contractor Stylist pathway: an initial discovery call, a shadow show, and a training and evaluation period leading to certification eligibility. Completing certification does not guarantee an official contractor offer — final decisions are based on performance, professionalism, and overall fit. It’s designed to give both sides a clear, honest look at the role before you officially step into it.
