"The difference between working at Mango as opposed to other salons is the people in leadership at Mango. They work hard to respect the needs and wants of their employees. They try hard to accommodate us. We also have an exceptional benefits package which is not the case in most other salons. "

"Mango is more than a job or a career. It is an extension of my family. When you're with this company for a long time, you grow as a person and your family grows with them. They're with you through the ups and downs, just like a family. At the end of a really busy day, I still don't feel like I've worked because I feel like I'm at home. For me that is everything!"

"Mango has given me so many creative opportunities, beyond the chair—-from photoshoots and Aveda fashion shows, to teaching classes, giving back through charity work, and even judging a hair competition. I love my clients and my daily work, but all these experiences make a great job even more inspiring and artistically fulfilling."
