Title IV & VA Approved Cosmetology School-Established Since 2006
$ 2,800,000
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a premier cosmetology and beauty school franchise with nearly two decades of proven performance in one of the most competitive beauty markets in the country. The school operates under a nationally recognized brand - widely considered the gold standard in the beauty industry - and is consistently the highest rated location among Southern California franchisees. The Business Established in 2006, the school graduates over 200 students annually across cosmetology, barbering, and esthetician programs, who go on to work at top salons across the country. As both a Title IV and VA approved institution, students have access to federal financial aid and GI Bill benefits, a dual approval that broadens the eligible student population and has supported stable, recession-resistant enrollment through multiple economic cycles. Beyond the school itself, the business includes a retail component that sells high-quality beauty products. It currently accounts for 15% of total revenue, presenting an excellent opportunity for expansion. A new owner could continue selling the existing branded products or introduce their own line of beauty supplies, capitalizing on the high-margin nature of the retail segment. In addition, the school also offers beauty services to the public, which are performed by students under the supervision of licensed professionals, providing them with hands-on training while generating additional revenue for the business. Financials The school has consistently generated approximately $4M in annual revenue. The 2022–2023 period saw a temporary revenue reduction when California reduced required cosmetology training hours from 1,500 to 1,000, compressing billable hours and top-line revenue. The school moved quickly to restore the full 1,500-hour program structure, and the rebound was sharp: 2024 performance returned to historical levels, and 2025 revenue reached approximately $4.3M, generating roughly $720K in Seller's Discretionary Earnings. Facility & Assets The school occupies an expansive 15,000-square-foot facility in a high traffic mall. 6 years remain on the lease with the option to extend for 10 years. Rent is a~$44,000/month, and the lease is guaranteed by the franchisor up to $1 million, a highly unusual and valuable provision. The buildout includes over $2 million in leasehold improvements and more than $650,000 in furniture, fixtures, and equipment, making it fully equipped to handle all cosmetology, barbering, dermatology, and esthetics services. All assets will be included in the sale, ensuring a seamless transition for the new owner. Transition After 20 years of ownership, the seller is relocating out of state and has shifted his focus to other ventures. He is committed to a full and structured transition to ensure continuity for staff, students, and the franchise relationship. This is an exceptional entry point into a high-barrier, institutionally credentialed business with a long track record and a strong foundation for continued growth. Qualified buyers must be able to demonstrate $1M+ in liquid capital. https://tworld.com/locations/California/beachcitiesandtorrance/listings/Title-IV-VA-Approved-Cosmetology-School-Established-Since-2006

Lesson formats range from 30 to 60 minutes in a two-room teaching space along with a waiting/reception area.

Reason for Sale: Owner is moving out of state. The seller is willing to stay on post-closing to support a smooth transition for students and families. https://tworld.com/locations/California/northsangabrielvalley/listings/Established-Piano-Studio-with-Loyal-Student-Base-in-Torrance-CA

Martial Arts Studio- Price 50% under Market Value
$ 65,000
Priced to Move! This is a rare opportunity to acquire a premier martial arts studio with a legacy of winning, producing state and national champions. Located in a prime, high-traffic neighborhood, this facility stands as the only martial arts studio in the immediate area, commanding a loyal, community-based membership. The business boasts an exceptionally low expense of ~$4,000/month. This low overhead ensures high profit margins and immediate positive cash flow. The studio is fully equipped with mats, bags, and gear, and includes a loyal team of volunteer student instructors. Key Features: Unbeatable Lease: Long-term security with incredibly low overhead expenses (~$4,000/mo total). Turnkey Legacy: Step into a fully operational gym with a reputation for elite training; current students include nationally ranked kids and Junior Olympic hopefuls. Growth Potential: The current owner operates via word-of-mouth only. Huge potential to increase revenue by implementing digital marketing, summer camps, and after-school programs. Transition Support: The founder is committed to a seamless handover and is willing to stay on for 2-3 weeks to train the new owner and ensure student retention. Growth & Expansion Opportunities Immediate Revenue Injection via Summer Camps: The current owner has historically "left money on the table" by not offering summer or seasonal day camps due to time constraints. A new owner can immediately turn on this high-margin revenue stream, capitalizing on the existing student base and local demand for children activities during school breaks. Unleash Digital Marketing Potential: This business was built 100% on reputation and word-of-mouth with zero paid advertising. It is a "sleeping giant." By implementing a modern website, basic SEO, and targeted social media ads, a new owner could drastically increase lead generation and capture the market share currently going to inferior competitors. Scale to Meet Demand: Demand for this studio is so high that the current owner has frequently capped enrollment and turned business away to keep class sizes manageable for one person. By hiring a Program Director or additional instructor, a new owner can immediately lift these caps and maximize the facility’s full capacity. https://tworld.com/locations/California/lametrone/listings/Martial-Arts-Studio-Price-50-under-Market-Value
