August 7, 2018, Atlanta, GA — Pigtails & Crewcuts, a leading children’s hair salon in North America, is expanding and is pleased to announce franchise opportunities are available in Cary, North Carolina, and the surrounding areas.
“The Cary area is a magnet for families. It’s a great, kid-friendly area with lots of kid-centered businesses, making it a prime location for the Pigtails & Crewcuts franchise. There are many affluent families moving to the area who would support this business,” says Pigtails & Crewcuts Area Representative Caroline Dover.
Dover currently owns two salons in Greenville, South Carolina but has many connections in the Cary area and visits frequently. “Each time we visit the area, I notice there are more and more businesses that focus on children’s services. Even before I joined the Pigtails & Crewcuts franchise, I told my husband if we were raising kids again I’d want to do it here because there is so much for families in the Cary area and it’s all conveniently located. It just makes sense to open a Pigtails & Crewcuts here.”
Pigtails & Crewcuts is known for taking the experience of a child’s haircut and making it fun for all by providing a stress-free environment for children and their parents. Each salon features books, movies, and toys for children to enjoy before, during, and after their haircuts, as well as friendly stylists, and a party room for special events. Pigtails & Crewcuts salons also feature a retail section filled with haircare products and accessories, toys, and other gift items. Currently, there are three salons in North Carolina–two in the Charlotte area and one in Greensboro–with a fourth coming to the Winston-Salem area later this year.
Dover has been a passionate advocate for the Pigtails & Crewcuts Brand since she signed on. She decided to invest in a franchise because she wasn’t interested in owning a store, but rather “building an empire” and chose to do that through Pigtails & Crewcuts. Just five months after she opened her first salon, the Area Representative program was announced at the annual conference and Dover immediately knew she wanted to be a part of it.
Working together with the Pigtails & Crewcuts franchise leadership team, Dover chose to focus her efforts in North Carolina because she already had connections there and because the market is similar to the franchise’s Atlanta market. “The population density in the Cary area was a major factor in why we decided to offer franchise opportunities here. We can have more salons because the commute time is so large, much like Atlanta.”
The franchise model offers simple hours of operation, a positive work-life balance, and a welcoming and kid-friendly environment. Franchise candidates do not need specialized or previous franchise experience, nor do they need experience in the haircare industry. Current owners in the Pigtails & Crewcuts franchise range from parents who decided to return to the workforce, entrepreneurs, multi-unit investors, and individuals who have invested in a business as a way to continue working after retiring from their previous careers.
The Pigtails & Crewcuts franchise fee ranges from $30,000 to $100,000 depending upon the number of units in which a franchise candidate wishes to invest. The franchise leadership team offers a combined total of over 75 years of experience in the franchising industry and will provide franchise candidates with expert site selection experience, lease negotiation, and pre-opening support. After opening, franchisees will receive ongoing support and training on the latest operational and marketing techniques, as well as routine salon visits.
Currently, there are over 50 Pigtails & Crewcuts salon across the United States, with several salons expected to open before the end of 2018 in California, Colorado, Kansas, North Carolina, South Florida, and Wisconsin.
