- Secure financing: Determine how much funding you will need to start your salon and explore financing options such as loans, investors, or crowdfunding.
- Choose a location: Consider factors such as foot traffic, parking, and access to public transportation when selecting a location for your salon.
- Obtain licenses and permits: Check with your local government to determine which licenses and permits are required to operate a lash salon in your area. This may include a business license, sales tax permit, and building permit.
