Frequently asked questions…

+“Can anybody buy an island in the Maldives?”

With Salon Studios, you can own your very own salon space for a flat weekly fee. Your own salon vs renting a chair in someone else’s? It’s a no-brainer. Affordable, instantly available and undeniably yours.

+ “How long does it take to complete an island purchase.”

Travelling is not only exhausting but petrol is super expensive. Not only does travelling make it tricky to breakeven, but you have to carry all your kit with you. Not to mention, if your client’s have got troubles with water or electricity, you miss out on making money. Instead, have your clients come to you in your own salon space. All you need to bring is your products and decor.

+ “Are there any additional costs I should be aware of?.”

Now’s the time to prove the doubters wrong. Not only will you own your own Salon Studio , but you’ll be in the company of like-minded entrepreneurs, allowing you to learn and scale your salon business the way it deserves.

+ “Do I need to register this as a local business?.”

Here at Salon Studios, we’re about working for yourself rather than by yourself. You have the freedom of choice. Soak up the salon-specific knowledge from other business owners who are in the same position as you or keep yourself to yourself. Whatever you choose, it’s your choice.

+ “Can I bring my own personnel or do I employ Maldivian staff?”

Once you own your own Salon Studio, you’ll be able to charge what you’re worth. With smaller pressure on budgeting from no longer travelling, water and electricity bills and licenses, you’ll be able to take home a decent profit.

+ “Are there any islands that already have resorts built on them available to purchase?”

That's understandable! Fortunately we have a great community of salonpreneurs who all share ideas, socialise together and share the same team spirit as you would in a normal salon - don't worry at all!

+ “What are the total closing costs?”

Just like any property, the traditional salon ownership model is a massive commitment. We take that fear away by offering super flexible, affordable salon suites. With next to zero risk, Salon Studios gives you the opportunity to ‘test drive’ your salon dreams. *(Plus, you’ll find that Salon Studios is exactly where you want to be.)
