San Antonio beauty-services market: salons, prices and operator concentration

Platform-visible beauty providers, mapped

Each dot is one platform-visible venue, placed by coordinates. Hover for the venue and its median list price. The clustering is the density-and-positioning read an acquirer starts from.

1,810 beauty venues are visible in San Antonio

Three layers, cross-referenced against public map listings: the physical market (1,810 visible venues), the online-bookable slice, and the supply Google does not list at all. tallywire tracks 1,591 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.

Who offers online booking (14.0% of map-visible listings are matched to a covered booking platform; bars scaled ×6 for readability)

9 operator groups run 3+ locations here, together holding just 3.2% of the visible market (largest service chain: Great Clips, 21 locations). Retail service counters (Ulta Beauty ×5 and peers, 9 listings) are counted separately — a beauty counter is not a salon.

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.

Median listed menu price by area

Venue-level menu medians by area (venues assigned to the nearest district). Service mix affects area comparisons; treat this as a listed-price map, not an affluence ranking. Stone Oak leads at $45; Converse anchors the value tier at $35.

Real venues, as a target list

12 of 1,591 provider records shown — a spread across price tiers with traction proxies: menu breadth, reviews, a representative service and its published price. The complete current roster ships in the Market File.

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.
