About Regal Nails Salon & Spa
Our company franchises nail salons throughout the United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico with over 600 salons in shopping centers and big retailers such as Walmart, HEB, Meijer, and AAFES. Regal understands that breaking into a new market is challenging, so most of our franchisees have the advantage of being located within or near big anchor retailers to increase potential customer traffic.
With over 20 years in the beauty industry and a prominent internationally recognized brand, we have streamlined our processes to make owning a salon an attainable dream for many. By focusing on marketing, customer service, innovative products, and trending services, Regal gives our franchisees an opportunity to generate traffic and create unique service experiences. When you join the Regal Nails Family, you can access this strong foundation and expanding market.
Regal has a strong team that can assist franchisees in all the steps of the way to owning their own salon business.
