Isn’t acceptance or rejection at a salon largely based on the interviewer’s personal preferences? Since everyone has different tastes, it feels unfair when one person gets to decide. That said, there aren’t that many male members, so I understand that they have to be extremely selective.

Not everyone is going to think every applicant is exceptionally beautiful, but isn’t there a kinder way to turn someone down without hurting their self-esteem? They haven’t explicitly said, “You’re unintelligent, and neither your work history nor your looks are anything special,” but that’s how I end up taking it.
It’s good that you found that out.
It means you’ll have to work in a field outside the salon, while making the most of your own position.
That’s better than forcing your way into a salon and not getting any offers.
There are plenty of ways to go about it.

You wanted them to turn you down in a way that wouldn’t hurt your self-esteem, right?
I don’t know how the salon handles rejections, but I can understand why you’re angry.
When conducting interviews, there’s a belief that you should let applicants say everything they want—especially when you’re going to reject them.
It’s a way of minimizing the rejected person’s frustration.
Perhaps you could try to look at this positively and use what you learned from this experience if you ever find yourself in a hiring position.

I read as far as, “I don’t accept being rejected at the interview. Also, I sometimes feel like I was told things that the other person never actually said…”
When you fail, it’s more constructive to honestly reflect, identify what you can improve, and try again. Blaming the interviewer is misguided, and even if there were issues with the evaluation process, writing about them here won’t overturn the decision. In other words, you’re essentially proving yourself to be a rather unfortunate person who can’t solve problems even when faced with them.
I’ve put it extremely bluntly, but since you seem to feel that people said things they never actually said, perhaps you’re actually feeling incredibly happy and fulfilled instead.

At the salon, women’s photos and profiles aren’t shown to male members.
I think the screening criteria are different from those of clubs where a woman’s photos and profile are what determine whether she receives an offer.
I’ve met female members who were also registered with the salon, and my impression was that the salon has very well-defined standards for evaluating applicants during the interview.

That’s quite a difficult question to make sense of.
I’ve been introduced to several women who didn’t pass a salon interview. After meeting each of them in person, I could understand why they hadn’t passed.
By meeting and dating both women who passed and were introduced to me and those who failed the interview, I gradually got a feel for where the line for passing was.
I’m sorry to rub salt in the wound, but I think you can pass a salon interview even if you’re not absolutely stunning. In other words, the passing standard is probably more lenient than you think, so it doesn’t seem to come down simply to the interviewer’s personal preferences.
Also, the staff at dating clubs really are professionals.
