What to know about beauty and personal care business acquisitions

GW

By George Wellmer

Cofounder & CEO

Key diligence, valuation, financing, and transition considerations for buyers evaluating beauty and personal care business acquisitions.

Find out who owns the clients — the business or the chair

If stylists rent chairs or own their following, you may be buying a name and a build-out, not a client base. Understand the compensation model before you value the revenue.

Check staff contracts, non-competes, and turnover

Your providers are the business; remove two key technicians and you have a lease and some chairs. Review who's contracted and who could walk down the street.

Separate service revenue from product and membership revenue

Recurring memberships and retail product are stickier and higher-margin than walk-ins. Get the mix and price the recurring portion differently.

Scrutinize licensing and health-code standing

Cosmetology licenses, sanitation records, and inspection history are real liabilities. Confirm the business and its providers are current and clean.

Read the lease like it's the asset

Foot traffic, parking, and a transferable lease drive a salon or spa, and remaining term can matter more than the equipment.

Budget for equipment and fit-out condition

Tables, spa and tanning equipment, and the build-out wear and date quickly. Know what needs refreshing to keep clients coming.
