They switch ownership to one of their family members and change the name of the salon every few years to avoid paying taxes.


That's why u see a lot of Chinese buffets always changing names.
Interesting. I still wonder if any non-Asian owned nail salons exist.

Asian guy next to my mother-in-law owns two nail salons.
Only husband, wife, and two kids living there.
$350,000 house in a nice neighborhood.
They're making plenty of $$$$

Most likely paid in full with cash money. When the Vietnamese wanted to buy a house in the neighborhood where I grew up, they'd approach the seller with grocery bags full of money.

Because they save up cash and pay for everything up front and manage their money well, you racist bastard.

I don't think I've ever been in a nail salon that wasn't legitimately busy when I was there. And that's midweek. I know some that go every single Friday.

Nail salons are 90% service
Their only expense is nail polish, rent, and electricity

If by "one" you mean a nail salon, fine. If by one you mean "Asian," then get with the mother frickin program and drop the bullshite racism.

Either way, sorry you got screwed on a deal.

I know dry cleaners are popular for familes because the owners are OK with a small margin since they are employing several members of the family.


Dry cleaners actually have huge margins.

As someone who has been to her fair share of nail places, you have women who go there every 1-2 weeks and easily drop $40-$80 depending on what they have done. A lot of the salons offer waxing too and make additional money off of that. And I'd imagine that buying nail polishes and supplies from a supplier in bulk isn't THAT expensive.
