The physical market, in context
7,298 beauty venues are visible in Los Angeles
Three layers, cross-referenced against public map listings: the physical market (7,298 visible venues), the online-bookable slice, and the supply Google does not list at all. tallywire tracks 1,248 bookable providers with full priced menus, roughly a third of which have no map listing of their own (solo pros, chair renters, mobile): supply only the booking platforms can see.

36 operator groups run 3+ locations here, together holding just 2.3% of the visible market (largest service chain: Supercuts, 17 locations). Retail service counters (Charlotte Tilbury ×16 and peers, 39 listings) are counted separately — a beauty counter is not a salon.
Operators on tracked platforms
Who runs more than one location
The multi-location operator groups visible on the booking platforms we track (grouped by normalized brand): the names an acquirer or expanding chain meets first. Operators on enterprise salon software (Zenoti, Boulevard, Phorest) are not yet tracked, so shares are measured on platform-visible supply.
98% single-site (one visible location)
of 1,248 platform-visible providers in the current dataset. 10 operator groups run more than one location; together they hold 25 locations (2% of tracked supply).

Method
Venues placed by provider-published coordinates. Median and percentiles over provider-published list prices across Booksy, Fresha, one canonical computation (n disclosed, outliers excluded). Operator grouping matches venues by normalized brand across distinct postcode districts. Area medians assign each venue to its nearest district centroid. Native USD. Business and service data only. Coverage: bookable venues on the listed platforms; operators on enterprise salon software and venues without online booking are not yet included, so single-site share is measured on platform-visible supply. Data current through 13 July 2026; source observations are collected on a rolling basis.
