Join the Health, Wellness, & Beauty Industry
Benefit from a Growing Billion Dollar Industry
The beauty and wellness industry, valued at an impressive $100 billion, continues to thrive with annual growth rates of up to 13%, offering unprecedented opportunities at the intersection of beauty services and commercial real estate.
IMAGE Studios is leading the charge in this dynamic and rapidly expanding market, meeting the soaring demand for luxury salon spaces tailored to the needs of diverse beauty professionals. With a proven model and an eye on the future, our brand is perfectly positioned to empower entrepreneurs as they tap into this lucrative, fast-growing industry.
A Growing Pool of Beauty Professionals
The beauty industry encompasses a vibrant ecosystem of talented professionals across multiple specialties. There are over 1,400,000 licensed beauty professionals in the United States alone, and this is projected to grow to more than 2,000,000 through 2030. This expanding talent pool includes traditional hair stylists and others, including:
- Barbers
- Estheticians
- Makeup
- Massage
- Nails
- Waxing
- Spray tan
- Microblading
- Botox
- Hair extensions
- And so many other specialties
Unlike competitors whose tenant base is over 90% hair professionals, IMAGE Studios boasts a unique composition—approximately 60% hair and 40% skincare, makeup, lash, nail and artists, as well as RNs, PMAs, IV, and hormone therapists. This diversity broadens the customer base and fosters a collaborative community, driving cross-referrals and increased revenue potential.
The Beauty Market Evolution Presents Opportunities
Today's beauty professionals are increasingly entrepreneurial, with the majority expressing interest in salon ownership or independent practice. However, traditional salon ownership comes with substantial overhead costs and operational complexities.
This market reality has created a demand for luxury salon suites that offer the prestige of ownership without the traditional barriers to entry. IMAGE Owners can attract:
- Salon Suite Tenants: Beauty professionals who already operate their own business within a competitor's salon suite concept, with an established clientele and proven success managing products and services.
- Self-Employed Professionals: Independent beauty specialists who have built their own business and client base while working from home, traveling to clients, or booth renting in traditional salons.
- W2 Employees: Beauty professionals working in traditional salons, earning hourly wages or commissions, who have the potential to transition into business ownership.
With the beauty industry increasingly embracing independence and entrepreneurship, IMAGE Owners are positioned to thrive in this evolving landscape. They have the opportunity to create sustainable, scalable businesses while empowering beauty professionals to realize their dreams of owning a business.
A Commercial Real Estate Investment
The beauty industry's evolution is not only reshaping the way professionals work but also unlocking exciting opportunities for real estate investment. As traditional salons give way to the salon suite model, savvy investors are discovering the benefits of this streamlined business model. The salon suite concept offers stable rental income from beauty professionals with the simplicity of a straightforward landlord-tenant relationship.
IMAGE Owners benefit from recurring rental revenue while participating in the growing demand for professional salon suites. By providing premium spaces in desirable locations, they can build sustainable income streams through long-term tenant relationships, creating value through real estate positioning and rental returns.
