ASSOCIATE MASTERS PROGRAM
At Hedkandi, we believe your career deserves more than just a job. Our Associate Program is a hands-on, fully immersive training experience designed to shape the next generation of top stylists in Calgary.
Since 1999, Hedkandi has been known for transforming both guest experiences and stylist careers. Associates aren’t here to “wash hair and sweep floors” — you’re part of a proven development path that blends technical excellence, business confidence, and a strong culture of mentorship.
Structured Education: A four-module, eight-month program that combines advanced technical training with real-world salon experience.
Mentorship That Matters: Learn directly from Hedkandi’s senior stylists and educators who are invested in your success.Guest Experience Training: Master the art of hospitality — the Hedkandi way — and learn how to deliver a luxury service that guests remember.
Business & Career Skills: Build confidence not only behind the chair, but also in consultation, retail, and long-term career growth.
A Culture of Fun + Luxury: We’re serious about excellence, but never at the expense of creativity, community, or joy.
What We Offer
Licensed stylists (or soon-to-be grads) who want to accelerate their career with advanced training.
Ambitious, coachable, and creative individuals who thrive in a high-energy, boutique salon culture.
Stylists who care as much about people as they do about hair.
A strong work ethic, professional presence, and a desire to be part of a team that pushes each other to be the best.
