Clarkston still feels like a small town, and clients here stay with one stylist for the long run. At 5480 Sashabaw Road, Cosmo Clarkston leases private hair and barber suites with 24/7 access.

Hair at Cosmo Clarkston

The Clarkston client is often older and loyal: small business owners, semi-retired professionals, contractors and healthcare staff who want the same chair and the same person every visit. A private suite gives them that, without the turnover of a commission floor.

Hair stylists already work in this building, so you join a place where hair is established.

Stylists and barbers already at Cosmo Clarkston

You'd be working alongside these independent hair stylists and barbers, each running their own business in their own suite.

What a hair or barber suite at Cosmo includes

Every suite is a private, lockable room that you set up for the way you cut, color and style.

  • A freestanding walk-around shampoo bowl, included if you need one. If you don’t shampoo, you get something of equal value for your work instead
  • Room for two chairs: a styling chair plus a shampoo chair or a second cutting chair
  • A design package with a full-length mirror, millwork, a workstation and a luxury light fixture
  • Utilities, Wi-Fi and commercial-grade washers and dryers on site for towels and capes
  • 24/7 keypad access, with exterior and doorway security cameras
  • No extra charge to share your suite with another licensed professional

Hair services that suit a private suite

Long services are where a private suite pays off most. A balayage, a color correction or a full set of extensions can take three hours or more, and your client spends that time in a quiet room with you rather than on a busy salon floor.

Barbers win on rhythm. Fades, line-ups and beard work run on short, frequent visits, and with 24/7 access you can open early for the before-work crowd and stay late for the after-work one.

You pick your own color line, products and retail, and you set your own menu and booking rules.

Licensing for stylists and barbers in Michigan

Hair stylists need a Michigan cosmetologist license from the Board of Cosmetology at LARA. Barbers need a separate Michigan barber license. Each license covers work only in premises licensed for it, so a cosmetology license does not let you work in a barbershop.

Michigan law treats a rented salon suite as part of a cosmetology establishment, and services can only be given in licensed premises that have passed an inspection. Barbers working in a suite need that space licensed as a barbershop. Confirm with LARA how this applies to your suite before you open.

Natural hair cultivation, such as braiding, does not need a license in Michigan.

Building your book in your own chair

  • Book the next visit before the client leaves the chair. Color clients and fade clients both come back on a rhythm, and a pre-booked calendar is a steady income.
  • Sell the products you use at the bowl and the chair. In your own suite you keep 100% of your service and retail revenue.
  • Photograph every finished cut and color in the same good light. Clients study a stylist’s portfolio before they book.
  • Ask for a review after a first visit, and give clients a reason to send a friend.
