What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Beauty Bungalows's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, while the initial franchise fee covers training for up to three people, franchisees are responsible for certain expenses if they request in-person training. Specifically, if Beauty Bungalows agrees to conduct the training in person rather than online, the franchisee must cover their own travel and living expenses while training. This means franchisees should budget for transportation, accommodation, and meals during the training period.
Additionally, Beauty Bungalows charges an "Additional or Replacement Training Fee" of $500 per person per day for any additional trainees beyond the initial three or for trainees attending a different session. This fee applies if the franchisee elects to have more than three people attend initial training, subject to Beauty Bungalows's prior written approval. Therefore, franchisees need to factor in these per-person, per-day training fees if they plan to send more than three individuals to the initial training or require separate training sessions.
In summary, if a Beauty Bungalows franchisee requests in-person training, they should anticipate covering their travel and living expenses, as well as a $500 per person per day fee for any additional trainees beyond the three included in the initial franchise fee. These costs are in addition to the initial franchise fee and should be considered when planning the budget for opening a Beauty Bungalows franchise.
