About Strip
Our guests see us not only as a hair removal service, but as the best of the best, detail obsessed, industry leading, hair removal EXPERTS. So, by investing in a Strip franchise model you gain a smooth landing into successful beauty business ownership. If you work in a salon already, or simply want to switch careers and move into the beauty industry, our proven business offers you a relatively pain-free approach, based on almost 20 years of success.
Founded in 2005, by sisters Danielle and Maria-Louise, Strip is obsessed with the finer points of hair removal. Through our unique approach to hair removal, our highly trained therapists make the mundane and boring a luxurious treat for over 37,000 customers.
From beautiful skin to beautiful bits, we’re all about the realness of being comfortable in our own bodies. Your Strip salon will deliver fast, hygienic, advanced and professional hair removal treatments for men and women, along with other popular beauty treatments including lash and brow services. What’s more, our salons sell a range of products, from skincare and sexual wellness, to lingerie, giving you additional revenue, making Strip an ideal business for you to develop and grow. You could expand from opening one salon… to many!
As a Management Franchise, you don’t need previous experience in the beauty industry; we train you in all areas: Business management, marketing, how to use our systems and processes, and all aspects of the specialist Strip treatments. This gives you peace of mind about what to do in your new business, and strips away any prickly frustration.
