Selling a nail salon
What buyers look atin a nail salon
A nail salon is a busy, repeat-booking business, and buyers judge it on how full the diary is, how often clients come back and how settled the technicians are. A salon where the same clients return every three weeks to the same team is worth more than one with the same turnover built on passing trade.
Fit-out costs are lower in nails than in hair or beauty, which means a buyer can compare your asking price with the cost of opening from scratch more easily. What they cannot easily build is the client list, the team and a good position, and those are what the price pays for.
Buyers will also ask about extraction and ventilation, product supply and the lease, so it helps to have those details to hand.

Who buys nail salonsand what they want
Many nail salons are bought by technicians stepping up to run their own salon, and by owners of nearby salons adding a site. Both want a booked-up diary and a team that is likely to stay.
Busy nail bars in strong locations also attract buyers from beauty and hair who want to add nails to what they already do.
Confidentiality
Keeping the sale quietuntil you are ready
We work hard to keep your sale quiet until you decide to tell your team and your clients. Our listings are anonymous and never give the street. Every buyer agrees to our confidentiality terms before we send the full details, and the business name and address are only shared before a viewing, once we know who we are dealing with.
We take the enquiries, calls and paperwork, so nobody contacts the business directly, and we arrange viewings with you at a time that suits. No sale can be kept completely under wraps, because a viewing, a photo or word of mouth can give it away, but our process keeps that risk as small as it can be.
A nail salon taking £100,000 a year typically goes on the market for around £42,000.

Questions owners askbefore they sell
Usually a multiple of the profit the salon makes for one owner, after adding back your own pay. Repeat bookings, the team, the rent and the lease affect the figure most. We give you a free, confidential valuation.
No. Buyers will want to see how long they have worked with you and on what terms, because the income depends on them staying.
We do everything we can to keep your sale quiet. Listings never name the salon, buyers agree to our confidentiality terms before receiving details, and viewings are arranged with you. That said, no sale can be kept completely under wraps, because a viewing, a photo or word of mouth can give it away, so we will talk through with you when and how to tell people.
