The salon industry is a booming industry for the beauty professional. What most beauty professionals may not be aware of is the options they have when looking for the best business opportunity for themselves.
When doing your research, you will discover that you can have more customization options and keep more profits in a salon suite. The beauty industry has their traditional commissioned salon concept and the booth/chair rental model, but the stand-out in the group is the Salon Suite.
Our salon suites are “mini salons”, housed within our beautiful Salons by JC locations. What makes them unique is YOU! You have total control over your suite – colors, decor, and service pricing – you create the space of your dreams catered to your business and your clientele.
The Current Salon Trend
The trend for beauty professionals is steering away from the traditional open salon concept. Beauty professionals are realizing they can have more freedom and make more money running their own business instead of working for someone else. During this time of COVID-19, Salons by JC is ensuring that suite owners and their clients are in a safe and sanitized environment. Limiting exposure to others and giving clients the private one on one service they are looking for is what we will continue to do.
The Salons by JC Concierge
At Salons by JC you are on your own, but never alone. Our Concierge is there every step of the way to help you transition smoothly from your previous salon location. The concierge can assist you in many ways, from helping you increase your client list by acquiring walk-ins, to assisting you with marketing strategies, social media presence, and business operations questions, you will always have someone by your side.
