That we’ve seen strong sales and demand in Mason even during a pandemic tells us that we’re on the right track. Cities like Cincinnati, Columbus and Toledo make perfect sense for our next move.”<h4>Why Nikita Hair Stands Out in The Hair Beauty Industry</h4><a href="https://1851franchise.com/nikitahair">Nikita Hair</a> has already shown its ability to handle crisis when the COVID-19, and the brand’s proprietary <a href="https://eleniandchris.com/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=nikita-hair-looks-to-build-on-success-of-first-us-franchise-location-by-targeting-ohio-for-development-2716526" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Eleni and Chris product line</a> shows that it’s mastered how to seamlessly fold in additional revenue streams to a single business. By bringing together the most in-demand services in the salon industry, executing them with expertly trained staff and offering top-notch products that keep customers coming back, Nikita Hair is uniquely positioned to disrupt the <a href="https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/marketresearchcom-the-us-beauty-and-cosmetics-market-expected-to-exceed-62-billion-in-2016-300209081.html?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=nikita-hair-looks-to-build-on-success-of-first-us-franchise-location-by-targeting-ohio-for-development-2716526" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">$62&nbsp; billion hair and beauty services market in the U.S.</a> through franchising.&nbsp;With less than two full months since Nikita Hair’s salon in Mason started offering its full lineup of hair cutting, styling, coloring, extensions, perms, keratin treatments, volume, repair and shine treatments and skincare and cosmetic services, the local reception has already validated Nikita Hair’s move into the U.S. market, and Nicolaisen is ready to expand. Already, franchisees are <a href="https://1851franchise.com/nikitahair/nikita-hair-is-expanding-despite-corona-virus-2713851#franchisor">latching on to the brand and filling up markets quickly.&nbsp;</a><h4>Why Cincinnati, Columbus, Toledo and Beyond</h4>“We want to expand concentrically, radiating out from our successful location in Ohio as our web of support and infrastructure grows to accommodate more and more franchisees,” said Nicolaisen. “Franchisees already know the brand has succeeded in the state, and the more salons that open, the better we’ll be able to synergize and support each other.”&nbsp;<a href="https://www.franchising.com/news/20200130_nikita_hair_breaks_into_midwest__signing_agreement.html?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=nikita-hair-looks-to-build-on-success-of-first-us-franchise-location-by-targeting-ohio-for-development-2716526" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Piyush Patel</a>, a multi-brand franchisor who owns four Dairy Queen locations and two convenience store franchises, decided to become Nikita’s first U.S. franchisee because he loved the concept and the brand’s dedication to its franchisees.&nbsp;“I wanted a concept that was new and fresh,” Patel said. “Also, since I was the very first franchisee, the corporate team provided a great deal of support and also allowed me to make the salon my own.”In Europe, the Nikita Hair experience is a household name and a gold standard in attainable luxury. As Nikita Hair looks to expand into the U.S., the brand’s comprehensive suite of offerings and Amazon-proof business model make it an attractive tenant to any landlord.&nbsp;The estimated initial investment to purchase a Nikita Hair franchise ranges from $220,500 - $334,300 including a $43,500 franchise fee. Single-and multi-unit opportunities are available.
