“Without the mastery of technique, one cannot attain mastery of form.”
About Ae Salon
Ae Salon is an airy, contemporary fifth‑floor loft with ideal natural light, urban views, high ceilings, full HVAC, and generously spaced stations. Located at 11 Tillman Place (239 Grant Ave.), between Post and Sutter in Union Square, it’s one of the most desirable, upscale blocks in downtown San Francisco.
We are a collective of independent stylists and colorists who share a commitment to precision craft, ongoing education, and a calm, client‑focused environment. Each stylist runs their own business within our space while contributing to a cohesive, professional salon experience. To learn more about our philosophy and model, visit the Ae Salon and Stylists pages.
Who we’re looking for
We’re looking for hairdressers—stylists, colorists, or those who do both—who are confident in their craft yet humble, open, and pleasant to work alongside. If you value continued learning, thoughtful client relationships, and a well‑run, aesthetically considered space, you’ll likely feel at home here.
Flexible schedules and rental plans are available, so please don’t hesitate to reach out if you’re exploring new options.
The space and products
Ae Salon is a 1,200 sq ft, full‑floor salon with large north‑ and east‑facing windows, exposed‑beam ceilings, and seven spacious stylist stations. We share a core set of care and styling lines—Milbon, Davines, and Olaplex—for backbar and retail. Individual stylists are free to choose their own professional color and smoothing systems (for example, Schwarzkopf or Goldwell) to best support their techniques and clientele.
We are steps from the Sutter‑Stockton parking garage, the historic White House garage across the street, and multiple BART/MUNI stations, making commuting straightforward for both stylists and clients.

Owner background
Adrian’s training and cutting technique are rooted in Sassoon methodology. Before the pandemic, he worked in an idyllic penthouse salon overlooking Union Square. After that space closed, he opened Ae Salon to recreate a beautiful, shared environment for independent stylists who value craft, care, and community. You can read more about Adrian on the Adrian page.
