Values & History
The first Cookie Cutters Haircuts for Kids location opened in Indianapolis, IN back in 1994 after three years of preparation and its tremendous success led to the small, family-owned business offering franchised outlets since 1995. Growth was intentionally kept slow and determined, as the brand did not want to emphasize sales without concern for others in the system, so the business focused on providing quality and prioritizing family and relationships. As word spread, requests for locations across the US and Canada began to pour in, and the brand now operates over 100 locations across the US. Today the model has been fine-tuned to offer franchisees and operators the benefit of lower operational fees and costs to open while keeping the ongoing development focused strictly on children through limited birthday parties and child-friendly products.
Industry Performance
With over 74 million children in the US, the market potential for children's hair salons is quite significant. Within the $46 billion a year hair care industry in the US, annual growth averaged 2.4% over the last five years. The child-only sector is suggested at around 10% of the market, nearly $4 billion total, and that figure is expected to continue rising over the next five years. The average net profit for this franchise exceeded 25% over the last year, and the brand has experienced a growth rate topping 500% over that time frame.
Training & Support
Training is provided for franchise ownership under the Cookie Cutters brand, with assistance on build-out, signage, grand opening, advertising, and all necessary equipment. Access to a company-wide proprietary POS and software system is granted to all owners, as well as ongoing support through a range of additional support options and services.

The Cookie Cutters model caters specifically to children, so prospective franchise owners should have a strong interest in delivering quality of care to kids while maintaining a positive, engaging, and enriching atmosphere.
