Founded by Roz Colhart who discovered the concept of “the salon suite” in the USA, from this she has taken her near 30 years in the hospitality industry and created a business model for salon Studios: a hub for creative talent that is both business-minded and nurturing, this is a space to grow, develop and build your beauty business safe in the knowledge that you are part of a community of like-minded artisans.

Currently based in Edinburgh, there are plans for a second location in Scotland and talks across the UK to open more Salon Studio locations which in the current climate of change makes this a hugely welcome concept that will change the face of salon life and offer a new level of business security and freshen up the industry.
