The Role

Mobile Double Process Color Professional — New York City

The NYC Mobile Salon is actively hiring licensed double process color professionals to join our growing team of mobile beauty experts serving clients across Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island. This is not a traditional salon job. You will not be sitting in a chair waiting for walk-ins or paying hundreds of dollars a week in booth rent. Instead, you will be traveling directly to clients — in their homes, offices, hotel rooms, and event venues — delivering the same high-quality double process color services you would in any top NYC salon, but with dramatically better pay, total schedule flexibility, and zero overhead costs.

Dramatic color transformations delivered to your door — bleach and tone for platinum, fashion colors, and bold looks. Our licensed colorists specialize in the precision and care that double-process requires. As a mobile double process color professional on our team, you will bring this level of expertise directly to New York City clients who value convenience, quality, and personalized service. Double-process color means we lighten your hair first, then apply a toner or color on top for the final shade. This is how you get platinum blonde, icy tones, pastels, vivid fashion colors, and dramatic transformations. It requires an experienced hand and professional products — our colorists have years of experience and use bond-protecting treatments to keep your hair healthy throughout the process.

A typical day as a mobile double process color professional might include two to five appointments across your chosen service area. You wake up, check your bookings for the day on our platform, pack your professional kit, and head to your first client. Each appointment is a one-on-one experience where you can focus entirely on your craft without the distractions and noise of a busy salon floor. Between appointments, you travel at your own pace — many of our professionals schedule gaps for lunch, errands, or simply to recharge. Your day ends when you decide it ends.

We are looking for double process color professionals who take pride in their work, who treat every client like their most important one, and who want to build a sustainable, high-earning career in the beauty industry without sacrificing their personal life. Whether you are currently working in a salon and ready for something better, freelancing on your own and tired of hustling for every booking, or re-entering the industry after time away, The NYC Mobile Salon gives you the platform, the clients, and the support to succeed on your terms. Learn more about our double process color services or explore all open positions on our team.

Mobile double process color jobs in NYC are in higher demand than ever. New Yorkers across all five boroughs are choosing the convenience and comfort of at-home beauty services, and that demand translates directly into consistent bookings and strong earnings for the professionals on our roster. If you have the skills, the license, and the drive, we have the clients and the infrastructure to keep your calendar full.

Responsibilities

What You’ll Do as a Mobile Double Process Color Professional

As a mobile double process color professional with The NYC Mobile Salon, your primary responsibility is delivering exceptional, salon-quality double process color services in client homes, offices, and event venues across New York City. Here is what a typical workload looks like:

  • Perform bleach and tone services for platinum, icy tones, pastels, and vivid fashion colors in client homes
  • Assess hair health and history before every double-process appointment to ensure safe lifting
  • Apply bond-protecting treatments throughout the lightening process to maintain hair integrity
  • Manage multi-step processing with precision timing for consistent, even results
  • Consult with clients on realistic expectations, maintenance requirements, and aftercare for double-process color
  • Set up and break down a full color station in client spaces with protective coverings and professional equipment

Requirements

What We’re Looking For

  • Valid New York State License

    You must hold a current, valid NYS cosmetology, barbering, esthetics, or nail specialty license appropriate for double process color services. We verify every license before onboarding and conduct periodic checks to ensure ongoing compliance.

  • Own Professional Tools & Kit

    You are expected to arrive at every double process color appointment with your own professional-grade tools, products, and supplies. This includes everything specific to double process color services — shears, brushes, lamps, products, and any other equipment required.

  • 2+ Years Experience (Preferred)

    We strongly prefer double process color professionals with at least two years of hands-on experience. This ensures you can handle a wide range of client requests confidently and deliver consistent results in a mobile setting.

  • Reliable Transportation

    As a mobile professional, you need reliable transportation to travel between appointments across your chosen service area. Car, subway, rideshare — the method is up to you, but punctuality is non-negotiable.

  • Smartphone for Booking Management

    All bookings, scheduling, and client communication are managed through our platform. You need a smartphone with reliable internet to receive appointment notifications and manage your calendar.

  • Professional Attitude & Appearance

    You represent The NYC Mobile Salon every time you walk through a client's door. We expect a polished, professional appearance and a warm, respectful attitude — especially when providing double process color services in someone's personal space.
