Do you think owning a hair salon is a dream which is beyond your grasp? If so, you need to read this article by Salon & Spa Galleria, serving the Greater Fort Worth area with twenty-three outstanding and affordable salon suite rental locations. Call us at 817-917-1416 and let’s talk about your future as a hair salon, or beauty salon, owner.
A small hair salon which is totally affordable for most.
We are going to use our own Salon & Spa Galleria as an example of salon suites and their cost. We cannot speak for other salon suite rental companies and, quite frankly, we have no idea what they charge for renting a salon suite.
As of March, 2024, our entry-level salon studio rented for $75 per week, or $300 per month for a four-week month. Compare that to the cost of renting a stand-alone retail location which will rent, at the very least, $1500 per month in just about any city in America.
$300 per month and no gargantuan down-payment, no getting a loan to pay for the opportunity.
Will prices increase in time? Of course they will, just like everything else in life; but let’s talk about the worst-case scenario for just a moment. Let’s say, just for fun, and this in no way is accurate; let’s say the rental price doubled in June, 2024. Again, no way this happens, but stay with us for a moment as we explain. So, the price doubles, to $600 per month. Even that is significantly lower than any retail location you may rent in some strip mall.
And it is significantly cheaper than purchasing a retail building, which will easily run you a couple hundred thousand dollars.
Think small and grow into success.
So, what are we talking about when we say “entry level studio for rent?” We are talking about a one-room hair salon suite with more than enough room for a hair stylist chair, a hair-washing station, and a small waiting area. We are talking about a highly-functional work area for one talented hair stylist, which is all you need to make a good living in this industry.
And, as your success grows, and you need/want to add another chair/stylist to the mix, you can do so. Yes, that will increase your rent but again, compared to the increase in sales this would generate, this really is a profitable undertaking.
Negotiate for as many free amenities as possible.
