Skip the fit-out

We've already done the brass mirrors, the dried palms, the stylist station you actually want to work at.

The deal

Flat monthly rent. No hidden fees.

We make money one way: chair rent. We don't take a cut of your bookings, we don't charge a platform fee, and we don't sell your customer list.

Optional marketing partnership: if you want help filling slow days, we'll promote your chair for a small percentage of incremental bookings — only on the bookings we drive, only if you opt in.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

How does chair rental compare to traditional salon employment?
You pay a flat weekly rent for your chair and keep 100% of what you earn. No commission split, no minimum hours, no boss telling you when to take lunch. You own your client list, your prices, and your schedule.
What's included in the rent?
Your chair, mirror, station, shared backwash, towels, kettle, music, electricity, water, wifi, cleaning. The booking platform, payment processing, and your own subdomain are also included.
What's the minimum lease term?
Three months to start, rolling monthly after that. We want you to commit enough to build clientele, but not feel trapped.
How do I get paid?
Customers pay through your booking page (Stripe). Funds land in your bank within two business days. We never touch your money.
Do you take a cut of my bookings?
No. The flat rent is it. There's an optional marketing partnership where we help fill your chair on slow weeks for a small percentage — but only if you opt in.
