Salon Lofts' Growth Leads to St. Louis

Salon Lofts is expanding and will soon open its first three new locations in the St. Louis area: Fountain Plaza in Ellisville, Heritage Place in Creve Coeur, and a third site in Clayton, Mo.

Breaking into the St. Louis market, Salon Lofts is the industry leader providing hair stylists, and skincare and massage specialists the opportunity to be independent salon owners without the risk and overhead of traditional salon ownership. Stylists lease their contemporary, private, individual spaces, and have the freedom and independence to decorate their lofts and manage their own businesses.

Along with numerous innovative tools, Salon Lofts offers a proprietary online scheduling tool, Open Chair, which allows consumers to search for a high end salon experience with a tenured stylist and book online 24/7 from their PC, tablet or mobile device. With research indicating that 80 percent of consumers going online first to find a stylist, this is a powerful tool for both client and stylist. In addition to Open Chair, loft owners receive business management and marketing support, and services such as maintenance, cleaning and insurance.

“We really want to make this a turnkey experience for stylists to break out on their own and succeed with their clients, without the typical pitfalls of starting a new business,” said Daniel Sadd, Salon Lofts CEO and president. He added, “The Gateway City is a vibrant, sophisticated market where we are happy to offer stylists a chance of entrepreneurship, and clients access to the best salon services in the most attractive setting.”
