Franchisees would have the opportunity to open multiple stores after successfully operating the first Hair Emporium salon for a sufficient length of time and generating sufficient profits. It is anticipated also that the franchisee would be in operation approximately six months after the initial signing of the franchising agreement. Additionally, they plan to offer a oneweek course in hair care, cutting, hair forming techniques, settings, hair sculpturing, and management.
