What Makes Our Franchise Special

From the moment you walk into the moment you leave, we deliver an experience like no other salon. Designed with a children-centered layout, all Chiquicuts Salons feature a fun atmosphere rich in color, child-appropriate decor, kiddie furniture, and fairytale-themed equipment without neglecting to consider both safety and comfort as key elements.

Each of our styling stations is ergonomically suited for children, and the staff is trained to work with kids. Free mechanical rides, video games, and a small movie theater are also part of our entertainment amenities, and a souvenir toy is always given at the end of each service session.

A franchise candidate will be required to invest a minimum of $25,000 (CAD) in unencumbered personal cash, with the balance financed by the financial lender of their choice. Royalties are based upon an expected revenue model, which approximately translates into:

The costs to open a Chiquicuts Kids Hair Salon franchise might vary depending on the local market conditions of the city in which you reside, lease rates and store size, level of debt, utilities and media advertising.

The amount of working capital required depends upon the level of gross income the business achieves once open, the expenses it must cover to “break-even”, and other business decisions that vary from owner-to-owner. A critical success factor for your small business is having access to capital when you need it.
