Sola Salon Studios Franchise Model Overview

A Sola Salons location is a commercial space, typically in a strip center or on a busy commercial street, built out into individual turn-key studios that independent hair stylists, estheticians, nail technicians and other beauty professionals rent to run their own businesses. The franchisee is essentially a specialty landlord: revenue is studio rent, not services, and the key metric is occupancy, which is what Item 19 reports. The investment is seven figures, driven almost entirely by interior build-out and studio fixtures, though most recent franchisees offset part of it with landlord tenant improvement allowances. Staffing is light; the owner or a trained manager must supervise full time, but there are no service employees. Rent collection runs through required property management software. The system is roughly 90 percent franchised and has grown steadily for three years, with affiliates operating about 67 locations. Transfers carry a transfer fee plus a lead fee if the buyer came through the franchisor.

Ideal owner profile

Owner or full-time trained manager who can supervise the location directly
Real estate or commercial landlord mindset; comfortable with leasing, tenant relations and occupancy management
Seven-figure capital or financing, with experience negotiating leases and tenant improvement allowances
Skill at recruiting and retaining independent beauty professionals in the local market
Multi-unit developers can secure a development area at reduced per-unit fees
