What This Means (2025 FDD)

According to Beauty Bungalows's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the Special Support Fee is due 'On demand.' This fee amounts to $500 per day for each representative, in addition to reasonable travel and living expenses.

This fee is charged if Beauty Bungalows, or a third party, provides in-person support at the franchisee's request. This support covers any out-of-pocket expenses, including travel, lodging, and meals for the employees providing the on-site support.

Franchisees should be aware that requesting on-site support will incur these daily fees and additional expenses. It is important to consider the costs associated with this support when budgeting and managing the franchise. Understanding when and why such support might be necessary can help in planning and potentially avoiding unexpected expenses.
