It’s a good starter in aesthetics if you want to understand the basics of dermatology and how lasers and other treatments operate. But as a Registered Nurse in California, I don’t feel well compensated - $28 for a base rate + tips and commission to equate for the $55 an hour “guaranteed rate,” and whatever you don’t make in tips nor commission, apparently the company “chips” in the remainder to ensure you’re getting the $55/HR “guaranteed rate” but it’s so complex to translate when reviewing your paystub. Skin Laundry implementation of the tipping program for nurses because 60% of the clientele don’t tip and honestly, they should just terminate the tipping program and increase the BASE RATE to $65 an hour at best.
Aside from that, management has been very questionable - Some, maybe one, displays a highly fraudulent personality to get what they want in the company, exemplifying passive aggressive behavior towards other managers and sometimes.. even the nurses. It’s very unfortunate Skin Laundry keeps people like this in power when they are NOT capable of being a leader nor role model. But hey, if you’re buddies or “tight” with certain people in corporate, it’s smooth sailing.
Work-Life Balance - Absolute trash. Skin Laundry is ALWAYS short staffed. Why? The compensation - Let’s be real. Management has to work with limited staffing which impacts the nurses work-life balance by causing us to work every weekend without rotating weekends for some months, on end.
Overall, a “good” starter in aesthetics but Skin Laundry needs to get their business in order and adequately pay the nurses. Nurses administer the treatments due to state regulations - Without us, they’re nothing and that’s why nurses are dropping like flies in certain regions because of the compensation, work-life balance, management, and little room for growth. Other than that, Skin Laundry has room for improvement and a good business model to make laser treatments affordable and accessible. But…they’re screwing it up with being cheap and cutting back on certain things.
Take this review how you want, but I am not the only one.
