March 16, 2022 // Franchising.com // DENVER, Colo. - Sola Salons announced today that it has successfully purchased 10 Sola locations in Virginia and 10 Sola locations in Baltimore, Maryland and Greater Washington D.C. Metro area from former Sola franchise owners. The units will now be integrated into the Sola home office’s portfolio of 59 total corporate owned locations, with one in development, which includes Denver Metro, Orange County, Sacramento, Virginia and Maryland.

This group of early franchise owners dedicated the past 10 years to growing Sola’s presence across the Virginia market. The 10 units across Baltimore, Maryland and Greater Washington D.C.

“This large transaction shows the strength and demand for our business at the unit level,” said Christina Russell, CEO of Sola Salons. “We have built a scalable team structure to prepare for this growth and couldn’t be more excited to be counted among the largest franchisees in the Sola system. We look forward to sharing the knowledge we gain from this experience.”
