Fantastic Sams

Fantastic Sams, the world’s largest full-service haircut franchise, first opened in 1974. We began franchising in 1976. Hair care industry revenues currently exceed $50 billion and is the third largest franchising industry behind fast food and hotel/motel. As the largest full-service hair care franchise in the industry, we have over 1,360 U.S. and international locations. Fantastic Sams delivers the high-end salon experience at reasonable, family-oriented prices.

This is a virtually untapped industry with boundless opportunity. Franchising allows people to go into business for themselves, but not by themselves, with the power of a national brand working for them 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Fantastic Sams is an all cash business, has no receivables and a low inventory. 80% of salon owners have ZERO hair care experience. Fantastic Sams serves over 550,000 guests per week. We have a “no appointment necessary” concept that attracts new guests and repeat business.

Hair care is a proven concept — high demand and low inventory! Fantastic Sams is recession resistant because we offer a quality product for every member of the family at a true value. We are internet proof; technology cannot do away with your business. We are the most recognized name in the industry, supported by national and local marketing.
