About Village Salon Studios
Our business consists of three salons providing hair, nail, skin, lashes, barbering, and other cosmetology services. The professionals lease the studios. They are independent business owners with the autonomy to make their own hours, set their own rates, accept payments directly, do much of their own marketing, and determine what services they will offer.
This is the future of the beauty care industry.
We're already there.
Our Vision
In the spring of 2012, Dan and I decided to open a salon. We knew that we didn’t want to be anyone’s boss. We wanted a place where salon professionals could go to work without worrying about leaving their tools and supplies out in a large open salon, a place where they could have privacy and one-on-one time with their clients.
So Salon Studios of Corrales came into being.
Third Location
After nine years, in 2021, we opened our third village salon. Again, we like our location better than anything out there, so all three are in the Las Tiendas Shopping Center on the northeast corner of Alameda and Corrales Road.
We have the best landlords who are very supportive of our business.
First Location
Our first space was 1,500 square feet. We created 9 studios, two of which are doubles. We opened our doors on November 1, 2012. By February 1, 2013, we had 16 people on a waiting list for available studios.
Second Location
We looked around town for a suitable space for our 2nd location. We couldn’t find anything that we liked better than where we were. We have great parking, a central location, and a well-known shopping center.
So we decided to stay where we are and opened Salon Studios 2, this time with 3,500 square feet that hold 25 studios--eight of which are doubles. Salon 2 opened on November 1, 2013.
New Name
As part of opening our 3rd location, we changed our name to "Village Salon Studios." We also created a retro (colonial village) decor.
We feel that we are truly a village, a community of salon professionals.
