Description
What is Bishops?
Inclusive salon with haircut and color services across a broad range of customer needs
Bishops isn't just another salon concept—it's a brand with purpose, proven staying power, and a clear position in a fragmented industry.
For more than 20 years, Bishops has made exceptional haircuts and color accessible to everyone who wants to express their boldest, most authentic self—without judgment or pretense. It's a modern, inclusive salon where individuality is celebrated, talented stylists build meaningful careers, and communities feel at home.
From an investment perspective, Bishops occupies the sweet spot the industry has been missing; better than a discount haircut chain, more approachable than luxury salons, and never at the expense of quality.
The brand's community-first philosophy is more than marketing. Every location is encouraged to become part of its neighborhood by supporting local nonprofits, schools, and charitable organizations—creating loyal customers and lasting community connections.
For franchisees, Bishops offers flexibility that appeals to a broad range of investors. Owners can choose to be actively involved or operate through an executive model. More than 75% of franchisees work fewer than 10 hours per week, relying on a professional General Manager to oversee day-to-day operations while they focus on strategic growth, multiple businesses, family, or other pursuits.
Bishops is redefining the salon experience—one great cut, one authentic connection, and one thriving community at a time.
