A PLACE WHERE ARTISTRY MEETS OPPORTUNITY

Salon Studios is "A Place Where Artistry Meets Opportunity." At Salon Studios Beauty Mall®, we have taken the booth rental salon business to the next level, creating an upscale environment for guests seeking boutique quality salon and spa services.

When you enter a Salon Studios Beauty Mall, you will find  the ultimate five star experience for our community of hairstylists and beauty professionals, giving them exclusivity, privacy and luxury. We give our artists everything they need to run their own business without all of the up front costs. Stylists benefit from the awesome energy gained from working in close proximity to other beauty professionals but are free of the drama of a traditional salon.

Our concept provides a business model that eliminates the headaches and challenges of owning a hair, lash, laser tonning, massage, tanning, weight loss,  or esthetics business. No more managing a substantial employee base, inventory and long daily hours. We make it simple for our franchise owners. You become a curator, renting studios to entrepreneurial salon professionals that want to own their own business without all of the up-front costs and limitations of working for someone else. This provides our franchisees a great semi-absentee life-style business model where you are the operator of your beauty mall community.

With our unique approach to the salon suite business, we are positioned to be the next great franchise aggregator in the Multi-Billion Dollar Beauty Industry. So why buy one?

The *$60 Billion beauty, salon and spa industry *(as quoted by Market Research IBIS World) is one of the most stable, recession resilient and fastest growing industries in the country. The attraction to the salon/spa industry is simple – most everyone uses some sort of hair or personal care service. However, there is a paradigm shift in the way the industry is changing and growing.

Unlike many industries that have declined or even disappeared, the salon industry continues to outpace the overall economy with over 3800 new locations opening in the last 3 years (- Professional Beauty Association 2014 Economic Snapshot Report.) Of that, “independent business entities within the salon industry account for 83% of all establishments and 93% of total salon revenues.”

The bottom line is that women will always care about their appearance, whether it is an up or down economy. The Salon Studios Beauty Mall® is positioned to capture a greater market share of today’s beauty consumer by delivering a wide range of luxurious salon and spa services at an all-in-one convenient location.

Owning a Salon Studios Beauty Mall® is a solid investment in a rapidly growing industry that is not prone to economic fluctuations, changes in technology or the fickle demands of customers moving from one fad to another. Beauty will always be in demand and the services provided by our highly skilled artists cannot be outsourced or replaced by technology as salon and spa customers will always demand the personal touch provided by our talented partners.
