IMAGE Studios®, a leader in the salon and spa studio space, has opened its newest location in Dunedin, Florida by IMAGE Owners, Julie & Hilton Bell. IMAGE is part of a burgeoning trend in the beauty business, which leases turnkey salon suites to beauty professionals looking to open their own business, empowering entrepreneurship and growth in the growing $63 billion beauty industry.
Leading the trend in the creative coworking space boom, IMAGE Studios® operates similarly to WeWork, Regis, and Impact Hub, with a focus on turnkey salon space for beauty professionals. IMAGE Studios® takes large retail space (typically 4,000 – 6,500 SF) and builds anywhere from 25-35 salon “studios” that are leased to professionals including hairstylists, estheticians, microblade specialists, massage therapists, tattoo artists, and other health and beauty service providers, who operate their businesses within these studios.
IMAGE Studios® founder, Jason Olsen, said “it is great to see locations opening in Florida! We were excited to work with Julie and Hilton, they have a great energy and built a beautiful, high-end salon. We can’t wait to see the success they will have as more and more IMAGE Pros join this incredible location.”
There are over 65 IMAGE Studios® in development throughout the US, and this is growing every single month. The company expects to have 300 locations in development throughout the continental US by 2023 to meet the demand of its business model. The build-out stage of our development covers the areas of design, construction, milestones, and timelines. IMAGE Studios® is an exclusive studio salon that provides modern, high-end salon spaces at affordable rates to salon professionals, making it possible for professionals to become successful entrepreneurs. By providing a luxurious and high-end space, like-minded professionals to connect with, and the guidance of mentors invested in the success of these entrepreneurs, IMAGE Studios® provides a unique opportunity to ensure success for all. IMAGE boasts the simplicity of the concept: IMAGE Studios® provides an incredible space and atmosphere; the IMAGE Pros bring the passion, talent, and clientele. Together, we create an intoxicating formula for success for our small business owners across the country.
