About Lena Rose Beauty
Lena Rose Beauty is Chicago’s first non-toxic, holistic beauty spa and shop. We’re a small, close-knit, growing team rooted in four values: Community, Compassion, Connection, and Conversation. We hand-make our House Line, vet every product on our shelves, and create a fume-free, low-waste environment built to protect the long-term health of our team and our clients.
We’re hiring full-time Nail Technicians at both locations and looking for someone who wants to grow with us — not just clock in.
