If you’re a hairstylist, barber, esthetician, nail artist, lash artist, eyebrow threader, or MedSpa professional in Las Vegas, Summerlin, Henderson, Spring Valley, Enterprise, or Southwest Vegas, IMAGE Studios is the ideal salon suite to launch your new business. One of the first questions people ask is, “How much does it cost to rent a salon suite in Las Vegas?”

Salon suite weekly rental rates can vary depending on your location in the greater Las Vegas area. If you’ve got your eye on one of our locations in Las Vegas, Summerlin, Henderson, Spring Valley, Enterprise, or Southwest Vegas, the rates for single salon suite studios can range from $335 to $385 or more per week, depending on size, location, and availability of the suite. You can expect to pay anywhere from $695 to $895 or more per week for a double occupancy studio, which is a great option for professionals that want to start a business with a friend or associate. They are larger than single studios and are equipped with two workstations, and some of them even have their own private entrance.

Each salon suite, whether it’s a single studio or double studio, is turnkey and ready to go. Once you sign a lease you can start working within a few days, depending on what business and professional licensing you are required to have in place. Check out our locations page to find a Las Vegas IMAGE Studios location near you.

Location also plays a significant role in what you pay for a salon suite. If you secure a prime spot with heavy foot traffic in a popular shopping center, you can expect to pay a slightly higher lease rate. Similarly, if you’re in a city with a high cost of living, studio lease rates might be elevated. The size of the salon suite also matters. A larger suite will naturally come with a higher price tag, but it can prove to be a cost-effective option if you plan on sharing the space with other professionals.

At IMAGE Studios, we offer the most extensive array of amenities compared to other brands such as Sola, My Salon Suite, Phenix Salon Suites, Studio Salons, or Salons by JC in the Las Vegas, Summerlin, Henderson, Spring Valley, Enterprise, or Southwest Vegas areas. We take pride in offering the most beautiful salon suites in town which makes us the top choice for beauty professionals who are looking to start their own business safely and easily. As mentioned above, our all-inclusive rent rates range from $335 to $385 or more per week for single person studios and $695 to $895 for double occupancy studios. These rates include essential benefits such as a gorgeous and spacious lobby, high-end design and finishes in all public and common areas, luxury seating and lighting throughout the space, and even upscale restrooms. 

Once you step inside your salon suite you’ll see why IMAGE is the leader in salon suites in Las Vegas. We’re obsessed with great design and believe that the spaces we work within should inspire us to be more creative. Because of this, we make sure we provide you with the very best furniture and salon equipment.

Estheticians, including waxing specialists, have seen a significant increase in popularity in recent years. Consumers are spending more and more money on personal care services, especially in the esthetics sector. The popularity of these treatments can be attributed to several factors, including their ease, affordability, and effectiveness. Because of the growing consumer demand around esthetics, salon suites such as IMAGE Studios, Sola Salon Studios, My Salon Suites, and Salon Lofts have seen a tremendous increase in the number of esthetics entrepreneurs who have decided to open their business.

One significant difference though is that IMAGE Studios’ professional mix is approximately 55% hair stylists and barbers and 45% esthetics professionals, while the greater salon suite industry at large is 80-85% hair stylists and barbers and just 15-20% esthetics. IMAGE Studios design, studio layout, and client experience is more aligned to attract beauty entrepreneurs from all professions.

IMAGE Studios projects over the next 10 years that the esthetics industry will continue to grow even more as consumers spend more money on these services. Salon suites provide the perfect platform for esthetics professionals to open their own business safely and easily.

On average, salon suites are built to house 25 to 45 suites or “studios” that are perfect for beauty professionals such as hair stylists, nail and lash artists, and estheticians to operate out of, and with IMAGE Studios’ professional mix being so diverse, each location brings in a steady stream of potential clients each and every day to everyone. When it pays to locate your business in a high traffic area full of potential clients, there’s no better choice than IMAGE Studios.

If you’re a barber seeking to launch your own business and open your own barbershop you likely have three choices to consider: booth rental, renting a salon suite, or opening a brick-and-mortar barbershop. Booth rental is becoming less and less popular every year, and the cost of opening a traditional barbershop is extremely high. As a business owner, you’ll also need to manage other barbers and personnel, monitor profitability, and assume the risks that come with running a business with multiple moving parts.

Salon suites have become increasingly popular due to their combination of independence and ease of management. In the last decade, over 2,000 salon suites have opened nationwide to meet the growing demand for turnkey beauty spaces. Barbers have also been a growing group within the salon suite industry as many barbers are realizing it’s much safer and easier to open their barbershop as a sole proprietor rather than taking on a big investment and managing employees, which also takes them away from their craft and puts them into the office instead of behind the chair. 

When choosing a salon suite to rent, it’s important to select one that reflects your expertise and experience. IMAGE Studios is the top choice for beauty professionals and barbers and hair stylists, offering numerous benefits, including:

Cost savings: Renting a salon suite is often more affordable than renting retail space in a strip mall or shopping center, as you only pay for your own space. This can be especially attractive for new businesses or those just starting out.

Flexibility: Salon suites offer more flexible lease terms compared to traditional leases. IMAGE Studios also allows you to share a studio with another professional.

Opportunity to create your own brand: As a salon suite entrepreneur, you have full control over your schedule, pricing, and services offered. You can choose your own clients and build your own client base, rather than being assigned clients by a salon owner. This allows you to create a unique brand and identity for your business.

Ability to grow: When you start your own business at a salon suite like IMAGE Studios, you are located in a high-traffic salon with a diverse range of professionals, including estheticians, nail artists, makeup artists, massage therapists, eyebrow threaders, and permanent makeup artists. By networking with other beauty pros, you can potentially receive referrals and vice versa, providing valuable opportunities for growth.

Access to amenities: Many salon suites come equipped with basic amenities like chairs and mirrors, saving you time and cost in setting up your own workspace. Some salon suites may also offer additional amenities like a reception area or private bathroom, making your business more efficient and convenient for you and your clients.

In conclusion, IMAGE Studios can be a great choice for ambitious hair stylists seeking to start their own business. It offers cost savings, flexibility, the opportunity to create your own brand, and access to amenities that can make your business more efficient and convenient.

Here are a few reasons why IMAGE Studios is the perfect fit for your lash business:

1. Cost savings: Renting a salon suite can be more affordable than renting your own retail space in a strip mall or retail center, as you only have to pay for your own space rather than being responsible for a larger rent payment. This can be especially appealing for new businesses or those just starting out.
2. Flexibility: A salon suite offers greater flexibility with shorter lease terms than traditional leases. IMAGE Studios also allows you the flexibility of sharing a studio with another professional. 
3. Freedom to build your own brand: As a salon suite owner, you have complete control over your schedule, pricing, and services offered. You can choose your own clients and build your own clientele, rather than being assigned clients by a salon owner. This allows you to create a unique brand and identity for your business. 
4. The ability to grow your business: When you open your own lash business at a salon suite such as IMAGE Studios, you are locating your business in a high traffic salon suite.

When you locate your business at IMAGE Studios you can take advantage of networking with numerous other beauty pros that can potentially refer some of their clients to your business, and vice versa. 
5. Access to amenities: Many salon suites come equipped with basic amenities like chairs and mirrors, which can save you the time and cost of setting up your own workspace. Some salon suites may also offer additional amenities like a reception area or a private bathroom, which can be convenient for both you and your clients.

Overall, a salon suite can be a great option for a lash artist looking to start their own business. It offers cost savings, flexibility, and the freedom to build your own brand, as well as access to amenities that can make your business more efficient and convenient.

Medical esthetics professionals, including Botox injection specialists, have seen a significant increase in popularity in recent years. Botox is a cosmetic treatment that involves the injection of botulinum toxin into the skin to temporarily smooth out wrinkles and fine lines. The popularity of this treatment can be attributed to several factors, including its ease, affordability, and effectiveness. Because of the growing consumer demand around medical esthetics, salon suites like IMAGE Studios have seen a tremendous increase in the number of medical esthetics entrepreneurs who have decided to open their business at IMAGE Studios. 

One of the main reasons for the growth in popularity of Botox is its convenience. The treatment takes only a few minutes to complete, and there is no downtime required. This allows individuals to receive the treatment during their lunch break or in between other appointments and return to their daily activities immediately.

Another factor contributing to the popularity of Botox is its affordability. The cost of Botox injections has become more accessible, making it a viable option for a larger portion of the population. Additionally, the treatment results can last for several months, providing value for the cost.

Botox is also a highly effective cosmetic treatment. It has been proven to temporarily reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, giving individuals a more youthful and refreshed appearance. The results are visible within days of the treatment and can last for several months.

The growth in popularity of Botox has also been driven by advancements in medical esthetics. New techniques and technologies have been developed to ensure the safe and effective administration of Botox injections. This has led to a wider range of individuals seeking the treatment and has increased the demand for trained medical esthetic professionals.

IMAGE Studios projects over the next 10 years that medical esthetics will become a substantial part of the salon suite industry because salon suites allow medical professionals offering these services to open their business in a “Beauty Mall” where anywhere from 25 to 45 other beauty professionals such as hair stylists, nail and lash artists, and estheticians operate out of, bringing in a steady stream of potential clients each and every day. When it pays to locate your business in a high traffic area full of potential clients, there’s no better choice than IMAGE Studios.

Are you a hairstylist, barber, esthetician, nail artist, lash artist, eyebrow threader, massage therapist, or other beauty professional looking for the perfect salon suite to rent to start your own business? Well, you’re in luck because IMAGE Studios is the premier salon suite brand in the country with locations in 24 states (and growing). We’ve outlined some information below that will help you make the best decision for your business.

The cost of renting a salon suite can vary quite a bit depending on where you live. If you’re looking to rent a salon suite in a big city like New York City, LA, Miami, Atlanta, Dallas, Houston, or Philadelphia, you might be looking at rates ranging anywhere from $325 to $800 per week or more depending on the size and location of your salon suite. If you’re looking to rent a salon suite in cities such as Denver, St Louis, Raleigh, Salt Lake City, Atlanta, Ft Lauderdale, Pittsburgh, Newark, Columbus, Cincinnati, or Las Vegas, rates might vary anywhere from $275 to $550 or more per week. If you’re in smaller markets such as Reno or Boise you can expect to pay anywhere from $225 to $450 or more per week for a salon studio.

So, what else can affect the cost of a salon suite?

Location is a big factor. If you’re in a prime spot with lots of foot traffic or in a popular shopping center, you can expect to pay a bit more for rent. Similarly, if you’re in a city with a high cost of living, the rental rates might be higher.

Size also matters when it comes to salon suite rentals. A larger suite will be more expensive than a smaller one, but it can be a more cost-effective option to rent a larger suite if you plan on sharing the space with other professionals. 

And don’t forget about amenities! At IMAGE Studios you get the most amenities for your money compared to Sola, My Salon Suite, Phenix Salon Suites, or Salons by JC. IMAGE Studios salon suites are the most luxurious salon suites in the country, which is why we’re the number one choice for beauty professionals.
