Why a Hair Care Business?

Unlike many other industries, the hair care industry fills a need, not a want.  Hair never stops growing, so even in struggling economies, when home ownership, new cars, and family vacations are put on hold, haircuts and shaves are not.

As a RAZZLEDAZZLE® Barbershop franchise, you'll be part of a $60 billion dollar barbershop business industry. You’ll have the distinct advantage of having an industry expert supporting you every step of the way as you grow your business. With experienced managers, barbers and stylists taking great care of clients, you'll be free to focus on growing your barbershop franchise business, which benefits you by being recession proof, having easy-to-use technology, a minimal inventory of take-home-hair care products, and access to training utilizing reliable operational, personnel, and financial management forms and procedures.

Franchise Model

THE RAZZLEDAZZLE GUEST EXPERIENCE

We strive on excellent customer service. It takes exceptional, consistent customer service to create a growing and loyal clientele. Utilizing over 30 years of hair care entrepreneurial experience, RAZZLEDAZZLE’s Founder, Elena Linares developed a unique approach to delivering the professionalism and excellent quality through a business that our customers expect – all in a relaxing environment with affordable prices.

THE SERVICE

The RAZZLEDAZZLE™ barber shop franchise offers precision haircuts, as well as a full range of barbershop services, including, but not limited to: straight edge shaves, beard and hair coloring, mini massages (scalp, neck, shoulders, foot and hands), waxing (eyebrows, nose and ears), pedicures, manicures, shoe shines and shoe drop-off, to name a few. 

THE VALUE

THE RAZZLEDAZZLE BAERBERSHOP BUSINESS SYSTEM

Achieving the full potential of this high-demand, high-repeat cash or cash equivalent business requires a barber shop franchise model free of guesswork. We don’t leave anything to chance.

As a franchisee, you'll benefit from a plethora of potential revenue streams. This creates a stable foundation for multifaceted sales growth.

CUSTOMER FREQUENCY

Customers prefer a shop they can depend on to meet their needs, provide great service, and count on excellent customer care.  For franchisees, our brand offers all three.  A great customer experience can mean a larger customer base and therefore help provide a more constant, predictable cash flow.

OPERATIONS

The RAZZLEDAZZLE barber shop franchise combines the simple infrastructure of a classic barbershop with the operational prowess of the RAZZLEDAZZLE team and its founder, an entrepreneurial visionary with over 30 years of experience and a proven track record.  We help our franchisees plan for and foster growth, monitor quality, and increase sales at every opportunity throughout the business process.

IDEAL OPERATIONAL SETUP

RAZZLEDAZZLE barbershops can be managed by experienced full-time managers; they do not require constant franchisee presence. This makes it easier to keep your present job, as you establish your first barbershop.  Additionally, this makes the process easier to open new locations.

Professional Staff: RAZZLEDAZZLE barbershops are staffed by professional barbers and stylists with vocational education and certified training from RAZZLEDAZZLE educators. Our staff is also supported by highly trained, capable administrative and management teams that are able to utilize their talents to ensure our clients receive excellent customer service.

Expected Tempo: We offer a unique concept and operational system that allows franchisees to serve more clients per day. This operational system also makes training, quality control, assessments, and improvement much simpler to facilitate.

Regular Hours: We operate during regular business and retail hours, thus allowing franchisees and their teams to maintain a constant, comfortable lifestyle.

THE ROLE OF A FRANCHISEE

As a franchisee, an important fact to know is you do not need to know much about the hair care industry as a whole.  Instead, the professional barbers and stylists you hire will provide that industry expertise and maintain a high level of professional proficiency.  RAZZLEDAZZLE will provide coaching and training. We want your focus to be on the precise operations of your business. As a franchise owner, you'll be educated and become an expert in:

• Recruiting a robust staff.
• Establishing close partnerships with your local community and local corporations: for profits, non-profits, sports facilities, educational facilities, etc. 
• Implementing strategic and long-term marketing campaigns. 
• Leveraging income potential by executing company strategies and growth campaigns. 
• Empowering team members by promoting capable personnel. 
• Working with RAZZLEDAZZLE to assist you in the growth of your business.
• Providing a long-term vision and accountability process for greater operational sustainability. 

We carefully designed our systematic, benchmarked approach to customer care in order to fully support each franchisee’s growth, regardless of the initial size of the RAZZLEDAZZLE BARBER SHOP franchise operation.
