View Our Story

Salons by JC is an industry-leading salon suite franchise with more than 27 years of experience empowering beauty professionals across North America. Founded in 1997 in Dallas, Texas, by Jack Griffey and Cecil Miller, we pioneered the salon suite rental model — giving hairstylists, barbers, estheticians, nail technicians, massage therapists, and other beauty professionals the freedom to run their own independent businesses without the overhead of a traditional salon.
Today, Salons by JC operates 170+ locations across 20+ states and Canada, serving more than 7,000 beauty professionals — with a 92% tenant renewal rate that reflects the strength of our community and support system. We are proud to be the only salon suite franchise with a full-time, on-site Concierge Manager at every location, a model we've maintained for over 27 years.
Ranked 8 consecutive years on Entrepreneur Magazine's prestigious Franchise 500 — including #1 in the Salon Suites category in 2018 and 2019 — Salons by JC is the trusted name in salon suite rentals for both beauty professionals seeking independence and entrepreneurs looking for a proven franchise investment.
