Licensed piercer

About This Job

HEX is searching for its first official licensed piercer! We’re tired of the same old, same old with traditional shops.. so we’re changing it! HEX is a woman owned maximalist tattoo shop + salon where our culture is put above everything else. We recognize that we aren’t for everyone- and we don’t want to be. We want the people who are the best at not only their trade, but being human beings as well. The people who make sure everyone who walks in the door is seen and heard regardless of any exterior factors. Our place feels like home to us, and we want our clients to feel the same way when they walk through the doors. We want the ones that want more. More creativity, more community, + more chaos.. in the best ways. Since opening our new location in October, we’ve decided to spearhead our own piercing studio inside the shop, where quality service and diverse jewelry inventory will be at the top of the priority list. We aim to reach APP status in the new year as well. We’re ready to take on a commission based employee, and we don’t mind discussing pay rates and benefit options that could be available to you as well. The pay rate in this listing means nothing that’s just what they made us do to post. Work hours/availability up for discussion with room for flexibility. In this listing- it doesn’t show the true depth or who we are and what we do but our name carries a lot of weight in our community. Ask around about us or go online to hexknoxville.com to learn more.
