A source said newly married Alaina, who was adopted by Eminem and ex-wife Kim, has a "great rapport" with customers and has her photograph and name listed on the salon's website.
However, she has chosen to keep her day job off her social media, including her popular Instagram account, which has garnered 109,000 followers.
The images published by The U.S. Sun show Alaina chatting with a female client and showing her products during one of her eight-hour shifts last week.
She can be seen going through a brochure to show the customer treatments before beaming and hugging her goodbye.

Despite her father's colossal wealth, she has always been keen to work and earn her own money.
She is now a trained esthetician able to carry out cosmetic skin treatments such as facials, chemical peels, and waxing.
Alaina opened up about going back to school on her sister Hailie Jade's podcast, saying: "I'm about to go back to esthetician school. It's only a four-month program.
"I can learn how to do facials, makeup, waxing, all that kind of stuff. Why not further my education for four months?"
She admitted she previously had a "regular 9 to 5" as a receptionist.
The U.S. Sun can reveal Alaina lives in a quiet community with her new husband Matt Moeller in a three-bed, two-and-a-half-bath home purchased in 2016 for just under $300,000.
Alaina is the biological daughter of Kim's late sister Dawn, who died of an apparent heroin overdose in 2016 following years of drug abuse, according to previous reports.
FAMILY PAST
Dawn also had older children, Adam and Patrick, although little is known about them or their biological fathers.
Alaina was raised by Kim and Eminem and remains close to both her parents, who are separated but remain on good terms are years of ups and downs.
The rap star has previously spoken of his relationship with Alaina, telling Rolling Stone in 2004: "I have full custody of my niece.
"My niece has been a part of my life ever since she was born. Me and Kim pretty much had her, she'd live with us wherever we was at."
Eminem has also mentioned his adopted daughter in later albums, revealing that he calls her by the nickname, Lainey.
In his 2004 hit Mockingbird, he sang: "Lainey, uncle's crazy ain't he, yeah but he loves you girl and you better know it."
Revealing how much he regarded her as his own, he also called her and Hailie "pretty much sisters now."
He went on: "And Daddy's still here, Lainey I'm talking to you too, Daddy's still here. I like the sound of that, yeah, it's got a ring to it, don't it?"
In Crazy In Love, he also sings: "You're the Slim to my Shady. The Dre to my Eminem, the Alaina to my Hailie."
Eminem also considers Kim's other child, Stevie, 21, who identifies as non-binary, as his own, while his ex also has a teenage son Parker from a more recent relationship.
The U.S. Sun also revealed exclusive photographs of Kim seen for the first time in five years this month, showing off a new rockstar look with cropped bleached blond hair and neck tattoos.
GATSBY WEDDING
Alaina married her long-term boyfriend Matt in a Great Gatsby glam-themed wedding on June 9, telling People that her father had a big role in the ceremony.
"I had an 80-ft long black and white checkered aisle and my dad walked me down the aisle," she told the outlet. "He wasn't going to miss that."
Bridge and groom exchanged vows in front of 125 guests at Packard Proving Ground Historic Museum near their home in Shelby Township, and a source told The U.S. Sun her mom was also in attendance at the ceremony.
"The grounds were the foundation of the wedding and what I built my vision around," Alaina went on.
"Our wedding was something out of a movie. I planned the entire thing, down to every last detail. Even customized napkins of our dogs with the phrase 'Our parents are married!' It's just very rewarding to see all your hard work come to life."

Her sister Hailie Jade, 28, was maid of honor, and other family members were there at the ceremony to celebrate the couple.
She added: "These are once-in-a-lifetime moments and I'm just so grateful to be loved the way I am by everyone. None of this would have been possible without my Dad. I'm beyond blessed."
