Executive Summary:
Excellent opportunity to acquire an established family hair salon at a high-visibility San Pedro coastal retail location with over 30 years of continuous salon operation at the same address and 14 years under current ownership. Currently operating as a recognized national franchise location, with flexible buyer options at franchise expiration in November 2026, the buyer may pursue franchise renewal directly with the franchisor, transition to independent operation, or rebrand under another concept.
The salon operates with 6 experienced W-2 stylists across 8 chairs, including a senior stylist with 25 years of personal tenure at the salon, serving a deeply loyal, multi-generational customer base of 7,500+ ticketed visits annually with a 95%+ returning customer rate. The retiring owners have streamlined operations for a smooth transition; ownership responsibilities are limited to basic management, payroll, scheduling, supply ordering, customer relations, and occasional stylist services.
Investment Highlights:
Continuous 30+ year operating history at the same San Pedro location
95%+ returning customer rate; 7,500+ annual ticketed visits
Average ticket value up 11% over three years, pricing power demonstrated
6 experienced W-2 stylists; senior stylist 25 years tenured
Pending 5-year lease extension under negotiation
Modern POS system with full customer database operational
Franchise agreement in place through November 2026 with multiple buyer paths
1,010 sq ft turnkey salon; 8 chairs configured; 3 currently open for expansion
Ideal for an owner-operator stylist, a salon-industry buyer expanding their footprint, or a buyer placing a working manager. Untapped growth potential through filling the remaining chair positions, expanding higher-margin services (color, keratin, extensions), and developing local digital marketing, areas underdeveloped under current ownership.
Highly motivated retiring sellers. Owner financing available for qualified buyers. Realistic offers will be considered.

About the Business
- Years in Operation
- 35
- Employees
- 6 Full-time
- Facilities & Assets
- The salon at 2470 S. Western Avenue has operated continuously as a hair salon for over 30 years, with current ownership in place for the past 14 years. The business currently operates under a Fantastic Sams franchise agreement through November 2026. Retiring sellers are passing on renewal themselves, leaving the buyer with full optionality on franchise direction, renewal with the franchisor, transition to independent operation, or rebrand under another concept.
- Market Outlook / Competition
- The salon competes in the value-oriented family haircare segment, serving men, women, and children at accessible price points seven days a week. Local competition includes independent salons, franchise locations (Supercuts, Great Clips, Sport Clips), and higher-end specialty salons. The salon's competitive moat is built on three factors that are difficult to replicate: a 30+ year continuous operating history at the same address, deep personal customer relationships through tenured stylists, and a high-visibility coastal retail location with strong neighborhood foot traffic.
- Opportunities for Growth
- Three immediate growth levers for a new operator:
• Fill open chairs, 6 of 8 chairs currently active; each added stylist drives incremental revenue at marginal fixed cost
• Expand higher-margin services, color, keratin, and specialty work carry meaningfully higher margins than basic cuts
• Develop digital marketing, strong organic awareness, but minimal investment in paid digital, online booking, or customer reactivation
A buyer transitioning to independent operation post-franchise would also eliminate ~$710/week in royalty and ad fees.
