Become a Hair Salon Owner

Open Your Own Hair Salon

Imagine owning a fun and financially rewarding business making people look and feel fabulous. Welcome to the hair salon business!

About a Career as a Hair Salon Owner

Opening a hair salon lets you own a creative feel-good business in a largely recession-proof industry. No matter how the economy is, people need their hair cut and it's not something most people can do at home!

If you can't cut hair yourself, you can hire hairstylists for your hair salon. If you are currently a hairstylist working for someone else, starting your own hair salon business gives you the freedom of being your own boss.

When you open a hair salon (also known as a beauty salon, barber shop, hairdressing salon, beauty parlor, or beauty shop), you have the luxury of designing the type of hair salon you want, and providing the types of services you want.

You can open a traditional hair salon offering hair care to all types of clients, or you can open a hair salon that caters to a select type of client, such as a men's barber and shave shop or a children's hair salon.

You can open a neighborhood beauty shop or an exclusive upscale salon. You can open a full-service hair salon or specialize in hair care services such as hair cuts, hair coloring, hair straightening, hair extensions, or hair styling for special events such as weddings and proms.

As a hair salon owner and a business professional in a leadership role, you can earn the respect of clients and your community. Your hair salon can be a social hub where you develop long-term friendships with employees and clients.

    People Have Said…

    Brenna Pearce, Editor:

    The FabJob Guide to Become a Hair Salon Owner takes you step-by-step through what you need to know to open and operate your own hair salon. The guide offers insider advice from experts currently working in the beauty industry to help you achieve your own success as a hair salon owner.”

    DaRico Jackson, celebrity stylist and owner of Amiri Salon, Beverly Hills, CA:

    Whether I am working on a celebrity or a non-celebrity, the gratification comes from seeing the self-esteem magnified when a women gets out of my chair. Sometimes women come to my salon down in the dumps, for whatever reason… but after an uplifting conversation, a glass of wine, an outstanding shampoo with a head massage, and a fabulous new look, their whole outlook changes. I love to see them walk out with their head lifted high, and that extra sway in the hips. When this happens, I know I’ve done my job.”

    Susie Galvez, beauty industry expert and author:

    Being a generalist is not the way to go. Instead, be known as the one to go to for: perfect cuts, highlights and color, most stylish looks, healthy hair, etc. Of course you can do all of these things, but concentrate on being the best at one or two of them and the word will get out.” (DaRico and Susie are two of the experts who gave advice in this FabJob guide)

    Mohamed Arshad, New Haven, CT:

    This e-book helped me make a final decision “go or no-go” to venture into the hair salon business. It helped me understand the business from zero knowledge and paved the way in setting up my family business. It is a practical real business guide that saved me time in research.”

    Genna Sakowski, Perth, Australia:

    I am not a hairdresser myself so I needed a lot of information on this field. I purchased ‘become a hair salon owner’ and the book is great. I strongly recommend your book!”

    Tamara E. Holmes, Essence Magazine:

FabJob.com has given me the confidence to dive in, just like I've always wanted to, whereas before I felt shaky and without a mentor. I'll always go through this ebook for future questions especially during my first year. Thanks!"

        "I purchased the e-book three years ago and I have since started my own company. The book has been my living guide especially in my first year of operation. In many ways, I could not have gone through the starting year without it. This year I am expanding my operation and I was panic stricken for a while to find out that I lost the e-book. I wrote to FabJob about it and in less than an hour I received another copy of it. Congratulations to FabJob! You have great books and your customer service is amazing."

        "I just downloaded your manual (yesterday) and can’t tell you how helpful it’s been to me.

Thank you so much for this valuable resource!"
