L1310 Full-Service Salon & Day Spa

You have to see this salon and spa to truly appreciate all that it has to offer!  Located in a busy Orange County center, this salon was established 20 years ago and has a very loyal, affluent clientele! The salon, which was recently remodeled, has a unique floor plan and style, featuring 15 hair stations, 6 shampoo bowls, 3 dryer stations, 3 fully-plumbed facial rooms, 2 waiting areas, and 2 bathrooms, one of which is equipped with a shower.  There is also room to add 2 more hair stations, and 2 manicure stations.  In addition, there are 2 storage areas for the stylists, a locked storage room for the owner, plus a private office near the reception area.  A covered patio in the back of the salon offers a relaxing retreat for stylists to have their coffee break or enjoy their lunch.  The salon and spa occupies approximately 3,000 square feet,  but what is most amazing is the extremely low monthly rent of only $1,500 – which is well-below market! The landlord has reduced it to this level indefinitely, from the already-low $2,590 specified in the long lease, to help in this economy. This beautiful full-service salon and spa offers designer cuts, expert color, color correction, up-do’s, Brazilian Blowouts, Japanese hair straightening, as well as massage, waxing, bridal make-up, facials, resurfacing skin peels, micro dermabrasion, dermafillers (Restylane, collagens, and Hylaform) and Botox.  A retail area displays hair and skincare products, as well as jewelry, sunglasses, purses, scarves and seasonal gifts.There are currently 7 stylists, 4 of which are on a rental basis, and 3 on a commission basis, 1 aesthetician and 1 nail technician, both on a rental basis.  The salon is slowly transitioning to a commission basis. This should be even more profitable, but can require more hands-on management and on-going product training.The owner has identified several opportunities to grow the business, such as filling the remaining 8 hair stations and facial rooms, and marketing to the database of 1,000+ clients, the upscale residential area surrounding the salon, and the employees of the many large corporate headquarters just minutes away!  The owner is selling the salon because her commute is too far, and she would like to spend more time with her family.
