What Users Say: (From Glassdoor)

I worked at beGlammed part-time

Pros

– make your own schedule

Cons

– they may schedule up to 10 candidates in one hour so you barely make anything hourly

The pay isn’t the best, but its not too bad. If you do both hair and makeup its better because there are times you will do both on an appointment. I work for glam squad too and they only let you do one or the other.

I’ve been working for beGlammed, as a freelance artist, since November 2014. beglammed has helped me build my portfolio and keeps me busy with clients. It is nice to focus on servicing your clients and focusing in artistry without worrying about paying for advertising, getting clients, paperwork or chasing clients to get paid. They do all that for me! The team at headquarters have always been very helpful and answer any concerns or questions I mights have.  It’s easy to overbook or overlap your appointments so be careful.
