FG Brands, a self-care and wellness platform, has announced the launch of the franchise industry's first dual-concept beauty studio, combining two of its fast-growing skincare brands, Bare&Sol™ (formerly LA Bikini) and Facial Collective®, under one roof. This innovative co-location model allows franchise owners to offer clients a comprehensive range of whole body skincare treatments, from hair removal and airbrush tanning to high-performance facials and injectables.
The dual-concept studio is designed to meet the demands of today's discerning beauty consumers who seek effective and affordable skincare solutions. By keeping both brands independent yet sharing the same space, FG Brands leverages the complementary nature of the services, creating significant operational and labor cost synergies and opening up cross-selling opportunities. This approach aims to maximize revenue per square foot, a critical metric in retail and service industries.
The first dual-concept studio is set to open in Birmingham, Alabama, on Friday, Aug. 21. With over 1,000 members already signed up, the studio is projected to generate $1.25 million in revenue in its first year. Spanning 1,950 square feet with 10 treatment rooms, this debut location demonstrates the potential of a business model built on recurring monthly memberships and additional revenue streams.
Jan Zalud, CEO of FG Brands, emphasized the strategic importance of this launch. "As a leader in the beauty brand franchising space, we continue to explore dynamic and exciting ways to showcase the professional skincare offerings that give our franchisee partners an edge over the competition," he said. "Combining face care through Facial Collective® and hair removal and airbrush tanning through Bare&Sol™ into one convenient location is designed to offer our clients the ultimate in value and convenience - an all-inclusive experience where every customer is made to feel welcome. And for our franchise partners, it delivers the best possible opportunity to drive exceptional revenue per square foot."
The dual-concept studio features a modern, inviting design with clean lines, soft textures, and a calming environment, moving away from the clinical feel of traditional spas. Memberships start at $49 per month, making routine self-care accessible to cost-conscious consumers. This “boutique fitness for the skin” model is designed to foster customer loyalty and predictable revenue.
Bare&Sol™ is the only beauty wellness franchise specializing in two high-demand services: all-natural sugaring hair removal and UV-free airbrush spray tanning. Facial Collective® offers high-performance facial treatments, skincare products, and minimally invasive injectables. Both brands operate on membership-based models, which are key to strong unit-level economics.
The dual-concept approach is a first in the franchise industry, setting a new standard for beauty and skincare. By co-locating these brands, FG Brands provides franchisees with a unique opportunity to cater to a broader clientele while optimizing operational efficiency.
