Old school service. New school skills.

Frankie comes from Frank Rizzieri, a third-generation salon owner, educator and three-time North American Hairdresser of the Year. His grandfather opened a barbershop and cosmetology school in Philadelphia. His parents built salons and a beauty school across South Jersey. Frank runs Rizzieri Salon and Spa today.

Frankie packages what that family learned, the wins and the mistakes, into a salon you can open yourself: premium hair services, a modern urban look, and a guided path from lease to grand opening.

Why Frankie

Every Frankie salon opens with the same six things behind it.

  • Proven franchise systems

    Every franchisee is trained on every part of opening and running a location, online, at our training site in New Jersey, and on site at your salon. The operating systems cover opening and closing, guest service, billing and cash management.

  • Design that is done for you

    Frankie brings an upscale, urban salon to suburban communities. Signage, windows, mirrors and finishes are already designed, so you are not starting from a blank floor plan.

  • Education, by stylists for stylists

    Frankie runs its own education program with proprietary modules, from cut and style basics to step-by-step service wheels. Ongoing training keeps every service consistent and helps you keep both guests and staff.

Is Frankie a fit for you?

Frankie franchisees are hairstylists who want more than a chair, and entrepreneurs who want a salon business with the hard parts already solved. You do not need to have owned a business before.

Frankie looks for owners with at least $150,000 in liquid assets and a $750,000 net worth, opening in New Jersey, Pennsylvania or Delaware.
