Image 360 Franchise OwnersImage Studios 360 was founded by brothers Jason and Shaun Olsen in 2010. After working together successfully for years as partners in the auto industry, the Olsen brothers recognized a need in their area for a salon suite business. After consulting with multiple stylists about best practices, the Olsens developed a completely innovative salon space, ideal for stylists and owners alike.

Image Studios 360 owners acquire a large retail space, around 5,000 square feet, and then build 28-32 salon studios in that space. Each of these smaller studios is then leased to different beauty professionals such as hair stylists, estheticians, nail techs, and massage therapists. These beauty professionals are free to then operate their own business within their studio. Image Studios 360 owners provide the space, opportunity, and stability for beauty professionals to do what they do best.

“I love the freedom and support that I get at Image Studios 360…Every established hair stylist should be here!” - Michelle Money, Owner of Michelle Money Salon, Image Studios Sandy

The Image Studios 360 Franchise

The Olsen brothers were able to start franchising Image Studios 360 in 2015, just 5 years after starting the business. Image Studios 360 is a simple, stable and scalable franchise. The franchise has been successful as a mini-mall of salons because of strategic marketing, brand appeal, ongoing training and education programs, and the Image Studios 360 operating system. With the support of corporate, Image Studios 360 franchisees are able to keep their studios fully leased and to in turn receive a predictable and stable cash flow. This consistency allows franchisees to focus on growing additional locations or even to pursue other interests.

Corporate offers franchisees six weeks of virtual training before getting the franchise off the ground. Once the salon studio is up and running, franchisees participate in monthly conference calls in order to continuously grow and improve.

“Image Studios 360 gave me the resources, opportunity, and support to BE the business owner I've always wanted to be.” - Jared Gomez, Owner of Versus Salon, Image Studios SLC
