a sweet suite story

  • a growing family

    The My Salon Suite brand started like most great ideas do – on the back of a napkin. A husband and wife team, like many of our Franchise Partners, were looking for their next venture. An uncle (who happened to be a hairstylist)  was joining them for dinner one evening and introduced them to the salon suite concept. Soon after, the first My Salon Suite location opened by the McAllister Family in Metairie, Louisiana, in 2010.

    The McAllister family hadn’t even completed construction on their first salon suite before they signed the lease for their second location just six miles down the road. They built their third MMy Salon Suite in Sarasota, Florida, in 2012, one year later. That’s when the My Salon Suite franchise story truly began.

    The locations proved so successful that My Salon Suite began expanding across North America from 2012 through 2015. With their expertise in driving business expansion, they knew it was time to kick things into high gear.

    My SalonSuite partnered with Salon Plaza to further drive the growth of the business. With Salon Plaza’s more than 25 years of salon operation experience, the partnership was able to provide unmatched knowledge and support for all franchise partners.

    Since partnering in 2015, My Salon Suite has exploded to more than 275 locations open and operating across the country. And the My Salon Suite franchise story just keeps getting sweeter. There are currently 200+ locations under development in the United States and Canada.

how is suite management franchising different from its competitors?

My Salon Suite has broken the stranglehold that traditional salons have on stylists and clients everywhere. Privacy, safety, and cleanliness are all too important for Americans, and My Salon Suite emulates that sense of security throughout the franchise system.

Our Members have deep roots within the health and beauty profession, and they continue to help bring so much fun and creativity to every franchise. The salon suite system is designed so Members still have the freedom to enjoy the synergy that comes from working near other beauty professionals, while being in their own beautiful, private environment to keep themselves, and their clients, comfortable and safe.

Franchise partners also serve as business coaches to hairstylists, massage therapists and others looking for the opportunity to run their own business. Our franchise partners have the comprehensive training and resources they need to help Members see their dreams come to fruition.

Thanks to our extensive training and ample resources, our franchise partners have the knowledge, management skills and spaces to make independent beauty professionals more successful. No salon ownership required.  We focus on growing our people, growing their lives, and growing their earnings!

Our community lives by these simple ideals; it’s our FLAIR Commitment. We encourage all our franchise partners to create a community that inspires and nurtures salon entrepreneurs.

  • a new day for salon professionals

    According the International Franchise Association’s 2025 Franchise Economic Outlook report, Personal Services franchises, including health and beauty, are the leading category of franchise growthat 7.5%.

    That makes this an incredible opportunity for entrepreneurially-minded individuals. Whether you want to grow your current business venture or explore franchising as an option, a salon industry franchise can help give you the freedom and income you’re looking for.

    Why are salon suites seeing such a burst of popularity over traditional salons? In a word: Ownership. In a salon suite, the stylist rents their own private, enclosed space. Because all the stylists pay is rent, the rest of their income stays with their business. No commissions necessary.

privacy

Salon suites are very private, and each suite has four walls and its own door. For clients who appreciate the one-on-one interaction with the stylist, this is a big selling point. Ask your friends how many things they tell their stylist that would be considered “personal or private” to their stylist?

appointments

Stylists in salon suites are given the flexibility to book appointments that fit into their schedules. Perhaps the stylist would like to work one night a week. They adjust their schedule accordingly.

retail space

Stylists in traditional salons are often incentivized to sell products and retail items on a very small commission – sometimes 10% or less. In a salon suite, stylists make 100 percent commission by selling products they believe in.

customization

Unlike the experience in a traditional salon, in a salon suite, they’re taking the first step in building their personal brand.

entrepreneurial goals

The creative and entrepreneurial individuals who thrive in the salon suite atmosphere is just that: Entrepreneurs. They have discovered within themselves a desire to create an experience larger than them and serve their community with the best salon, grooming and styling services on the market. Everything from their equipment to the atmosphere of their suite reflects who they are as stylists.

Our Members are artists who have been dreaming of owning their own business for years. These stylists are passionate about their look and visual elements. They feel connected to their space. Each artist wants to create their own brand — their own FLAIR™!

Our salon suite atmosphere empowers stylists to share who they are as individuals and connect with their clients. Many stylists have worked their way up through the ranks. They may have started at budget-friendly salons and only know about renting a chair and paying dues to their salon. For salon professionals who made the move to My Salon Suite, three out of four report an increase in their earnings!

As their skills grow, so does their passion for the craft. Eventually, it’s time for stylists to leave the nest. This entrepreneurial ladder leads straight to My Salon Suite.
