What makes our salon suites different from typical rental spaces:
Cape Coral is booming. With over 200,000 residents and continued rapid growth, the demand for quality hair services has never been higher.
Our Del Prado Boulevard location is in the heart of Cape Coral’s commercial district with excellent visibility and demographics. Your clients will find you easily, and walk-in traffic from the high-visibility location means bonus business.

Master Colorists – Dedicated space for balayage, color corrections, fashion colors, and complex formulations
Men’s Grooming Specialists – Private environment for cuts, fades, beard trims, and luxury grooming services
Bridal & Event Stylists – Room to work with bridal parties, updos, and special occasion styling

Imagine Your Day as an Independent Stylist at Geca Med SpaPicture your ideal Tuesday…
You wake up at 8:00 AM—no rush, because you set your own schedule. After coffee, you check your StyleSeat app. Four clients today: a balayage, two cuts, and a color correction consultation. You’re excited because that color correction could be a $400 service, and you keep every penny.
You arrive at your Geca Med Spa suite by 10:00 AM. The space smells like the Olaplex and Moroccan Oil you love. Your carefully curated Spotify playlist is already queued up. Your color bar is organized exactly how you like it. The before-and-after photos on your wall showcase your best work. This isn’t just a chair you’re renting—this is YOUR salon.
Your 10:30 AM balayage client found you on Instagram. She’s been coming every eight weeks for a year and always tips 25%. She loves that you have a private suite—no loud salon chaos, no one else’s conversations, just her relaxing while you work your magic. She books her next appointment before leaving and buys a bottle of purple shampoo from your retail shelf.
Between clients, the esthetician next door stops by. Her client asked for a hairstylist recommendation. You exchange cards. More referrals.
Your 3:00 PM color correction consultation walks in nervous—another stylist messed up her blonde. You sit with her in your private suite, discuss the fix, quote $380 for the correction, and book her for Saturday. She trusts you because this is clearly your business, your expertise, your space.
By 6:00 PM, you’ve earned $620, kept 100%, and booked two future appointments. Tomorrow you’re only taking two clients because you CAN. Friday you’re fully booked. This is freedom. This is why you got your license.
What licenses do I need to rent a salon suite in Florida?
You must hold a current, active Florida Cosmetology License issued by the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR). If you only do hair (not nails or skin), a Hair Specialist License works too. You’ll also need general liability insurance and a business license registered with Cape Coral and Lee County.
Can I bring my own clients from my previous salon?
Absolutely—but check your previous employment contract for any non-compete clauses. Most stylists legally bring their personal clientele when transitioning to suite rental. Your clients are loyal to YOU, not a salon. Give them plenty of notice about your move and new location so they can follow you seamlessly.
Are hair color and products included in my rental?
No. You purchase and provide all professional hair color, styling products, retail inventory, towels, capes, and supplies. This is actually a huge advantage—you’re not forced to use inferior products or pay marked-up prices to a salon owner. Buy directly from your favorite distributors at professional rates.
Can I bring my own styling tools and equipment?
Yes! Bring your favorite shears, blow dryers, flat irons, curling irons, color processors, steamers, hood dryers—whatever tools make you the best stylist you can be. Just ensure everything meets electrical safety standards.
How do I manage appointments and collect payment?
You’re fully responsible for your booking system and payment processing. Most independent stylists love platforms like Vagaro, Square Appointments, Booksy, Schedulicity, or StyleSeat—they handle online booking, reminders, payment processing, and client management in one affordable system. You keep 100% of your earnings minus small processing fees.
Is there a shampoo bowl in every suite?
Most suites include either a sink vanity or a shampoo chair. Suites 1, 2, and 3 have sink vanities. Suites 4 and 5 have shampoo chairs (backwash style). All configurations work great—it’s just personal preference. During your tour, you can test the setup and choose what works best for your service menu.
What if I need to wash color bowls or mix color?
Sink access is available in select suites, and all stylists have access to shared washing facilities for cleaning tools and mixing color. Many stylists bring portable color mixing trays and wash stations if their suite doesn’t include a sink.
Can my clients wait in a comfortable area before their appointment?
Yes! We have a professional, comfortable common waiting area where clients can relax before their service. It’s well-maintained and designed to create a positive first impression of your professionalism.
What are the hours? Can I take evening or weekend appointments?
Your suite is accessible 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Early morning blowouts before clients go to work? Late evening color corrections? Sunday bridal prep? Absolutely. You set your hours based on your lifestyle and your clients’ needs.
How does parking work for my salon clients?
Free, ample parking directly in front of the building. Your clients will never circle the block looking for parking or pay meters. Convenient parking is a huge selling point—clients appreciate easy access, especially for longer appointments like color services.
What happens if my blow dryer breaks or the AC stops working?
Report any facility maintenance issues to on-site management immediately through our online portal or in person. We respond quickly because we know your income depends on a functional workspace. You’re responsible for your personal tools and equipment; we’re responsible for the suite infrastructure.
Can I leave my lease early if I need to?
Early termination is possible in certain circumstances with advance notice and typically a lease break fee. Life happens—relocations, health issues, family situations. We work with tenants to find reasonable solutions when circumstances change. The sooner you communicate, the more options we have.
