Sola Salons Crown Point

Sola Salons offers rentable studios to independent professionals rather than employing stylists. Renters work as their own business inside a suite, and each Sola Salon Studios location is owned and run by its own franchise owner, so details can vary from site to site.

The Clay Terrace location in Carmel, listed as Sola Salons Indianapolis - Clay Terrace, is in the middle of Clay Terrace Mall with easy access from State Route 31. It has 33 individual studios in single, large and double sizes. Each studio arrives move-in ready with a shampoo bowl and styling chair, and has full-spectrum lighting, a glass door with its own lock and key, and round-the-clock security.

Renters pay one weekly fee that covers utilities and Wi-Fi. Suite owners set their own service and product prices, keep all of their profits, and choose which brands and products they sell, keeping the full product profit. The company says its community includes more than 20,000 independent business owners.

Prospective renters can book a tour of the suites before committing. Suite access hours vary by location, so it is worth asking the location you are interested in.

Suite owners run their own businesses inside the space, setting their own prices and choosing their own product lines.

Clay Terrace studios sit inside a shopping mall in Carmel, with parking for owners and guests.
