Pigtails & Crewcuts Franchise Cost and Requirements for 2024

Background

Pigtails & Crewcuts is a national, upscale children's hair salon with over 70 locations in 23 states. We have 20+ locations in different development stages as well. Founded in Atlanta, GA, our dedicated franchise team has over 75 years of combined franchising experience. Our mission is to create a fun and memorable haircutting experience for children and their families. With brightly colored walls and our signature theme car chairs, Pigtails & Crewcuts provides an environment where kids can be kids.

The hair industry is a $65 billion industry, and the children's segment is over $7 billion; therefore, this recession-resistant industry will continue to grow. While there are competitors in this space, there really is no national brand. Pigtails & Crewcuts is the premier provider of children's haircuts across the country by providing an exceptional experience in our salons, and through our support of our franchisees. What sets us apart is our strong Item 19, dependable and ongoing franchise support, and excellent franchisee validation.

Features of our Business:
-Low investment
-Simple buildout (8-12 weeks)
-Flexible hours of operations
-Single and multi-unit opportunities
-Full-time and semi-absentee ownership
-Multiple revenue streams: hair services, retail, and birthday parties
-Unmatched franchise support on all aspects of this business

Pigtails & Crewcuts uses our core values to help guide us at the franchise and salon level, as well as to create a company culture our franchisees and their staff can believe in. -Work with integrity and respect
-Build positive relationships
-Be fun, enthusiastic, and compassionate
-Deliver consistent quality
-Give back to your community

Candidate Profile:
This franchise opportunity lends itself to a number of ownership opportunities. Our franchisees come from all walks of life and have different goals and objectives that vary from day-to-day operations to higher level ownership. However, none of our franchisees are hairstylists. Some owners are the salon each day managing the daily operations, but most are semi-absentee who either work fulltime or own multiple salons and other businesses. Our semi-absentee model is a great opportunity for clients who are interested in business ownership but might not be ready to leave their fulltime jobs. We have both single and multi-unit franchise opportunities available. Contact franchise@pigtailsandcrewcuts.com for more information!
