FG Brands, a self-care and wellness platform, has announced the launch of the franchise industry's first dual-concept beauty studio, bringing together two of its skincare brands—Bare&Sol™ (formerly LA Bikini) and Facial Collective®—under one roof. This innovative co-location model allows franchise owners to offer clients a comprehensive range of whole-body skincare treatments, from hair removal and airbrush tanning to high-performance facials and injectables, all in a single convenient location. The design keeps both brands independent, each focusing on its core offerings, while sharing the same space to maximize operational synergies and revenue opportunities through cross-selling.
The first dual-concept studio is set to open in Birmingham, Alabama, on Friday, Aug. 21. With more than 1,000 members already enrolled, the studio is projected to generate over $1.25 million in revenue in its first year. The 1,950-square-foot facility features 10 treatment rooms, demonstrating the potential of a dual-brand business model built on recurring monthly membership revenue and complementary service streams.
Jan Zalud, CEO of FG Brands, highlighted the strategic significance of the launch: "Combining face care through Facial Collective® and hair removal and airbrush tanning through Bare&Sol™ into one convenient location is designed to offer our clients the ultimate in value and convenience. For our franchise partners, it delivers the best possible opportunity to drive exceptional revenue per square foot." The co-location model is designed to give franchisees a competitive edge by offering a unique, all-inclusive experience that sets a new standard in the beauty and skincare marketplace.
The dual-concept studio features a fully reimagined interior, moving away from the cold, clinical feel of traditional spas to a modern, elevated atmosphere with clean lines, soft textures, and a calming environment. Memberships start as low as $49 per month, making routine self-care accessible to a broad range of consumers. This membership-based model ensures recurring revenue, a key driver of strong unit-level economics for franchise owners.
Bare&Sol™ specializes in all-natural, less-painful sugaring hair removal and UV-free airbrush spray tanning, while Facial Collective® offers high-performance, curated facial treatments, advanced skincare products, and minimally invasive injectable treatments. The two brands complement each other, creating cross-functional business synergies that benefit both franchisees and clients.
With this innovative approach, FG Brands is positioning itself as a leader in the beauty franchise space. The dual-concept model not only enhances the guest experience but also provides franchise owners with a unique opportunity to maximize revenue per square foot.
