Does anyone here have any experience with kids hair salon franchise ? My wife wants to get out of her day job. One of our family friends acquired had kids salon in an upscale area and he opened another one in nearby expensive zipcode. I dont know his numbers but he always tells he is doing really good. None of those are franchise. He is also managing both as side.

    A man usually goes to the same barber he went to as a kid. That barber was cutting a kid’s hair, and the next customer would be a senior.

    My question is, what value does a kids salon bring.

          It’s all about the demographics. Kids salon won’t work in 60k housing income demographics.

        The only “kid’s” salons available as a franchise are NOT targeting $300k/ year families. They’re the equivalent of Great Clips. They attract nothing but rookie and/ or bottom of the barrel stylists. The prices are dirt cheap because the stylists aren’t experienced and they make shit money. You’re acting like it’s the top of the market when it’s the literal bottom.

        I’m not trying to argue about any of this. I’ve been in the business as a multiple shop owner and consultant for a long time.
