20 Year Celebration and Awards
To properly celebrate 20 years of Salons by JC, we will be hosting a 20th Anniversary Celebration on Sunday, October 21st at d.e.c. on Dragon from 7 PM – 10 PM. This event is open to all franchisees, their guests, and beauty professionals in the Dallas area.
The Owners Conference will begin Monday, October 22nd at 8:30 AM at the Addison Conference Center, kicking off the event will be the “Salons by JC Social” hosted by Marlene Romo Flores.
“Social Media has evolved tremendously in the last 10 years and its main focus has been to afford the small business owner, who didn’t have a big marketing budget, the ability to be able to compete against the bigger name brands. I look forward to speaking to the owners at the conference and sharing my insights and learning from them as well,” Marlene says.
The conference will also crown a new Concierge of the Year. Our 2017 Concierge of the Year, Jo-Lynn Greenman is now a our Salon Business Coach and has hit the ground running by visiting different locations across our spectrum of franchises. “It’s been a wonderful experience to visit locations across the nation to provide support for our concierges and franchisees while gaining new insight into how we can continue to make our brand the best in this industry. I look forward to connecting, learning, and celebrating with everyone attending the conference this year.” Jo-Lynn shares.
In addition, honors will also be bestowed upon the Franchisee of the Year and the location with the Highest Occupancy throughout the year.

About Salons by JC: In 1997, Jack Griffey and Cecil Miller began their journey to transform the beauty industry one salon suite at a time. Like most young entrepreneurs, they started out with a big idea but had to learn how to start and run a business from scratch. After much perseverance and hard work, one year later, they opened Salons by JC in Dallas, TX in 1998, welcoming beauty and wellness specialists who were ready to break free from the traditional salon model. The company has since moved its headquarters from Dallas to San Antonio, where it continues to grow through franchising. Today, Salons by JC has over 90 locations in 26 states and Canada.
