I have recently enquired about renting a space in a shopping outlet. There is loads of free parking, over 50 designer shops, 5 restaurants, as well as a cinema in the vicinity!!
It's been on my mind a lot lately how well a blow dry bar and nail bar would do there, just offering blow dries with no appointments necessary, a small nail bar offering manicures & gel polish, you know just quick small services and retailing professional products.
My only worry is employing staff. The outlet is open mon-fri 9am-8pm and saturdays & sundays 9am-6pm.
I would need a decent amount of staff to do all these hours.
But would stylists and beauticians feel 'bored' and lose touch with their qualifications if they're only blow drying and doing manicures day in day out? I worry that I'd have a high staff turnover if they don't feel challenged.
I don't think its the type of place that would benefit from a full on hair salon offering everything.
Is this a good idea, or a crap one?
Or more hassle than worth?
