Built for Tampa hair salons
The Tampa metro counted 1,140 employer beauty salons, 33.8 per 100,000 residents. Seventy-three percent were under five staff, and 105 had ten to nineteen. Hillsborough and Pinellas between them hold most of the market, so salons are close enough that clients compare, and a salon that lets them book a specific stylist online, then sends an email reminder, is easier to choose. Hillsborough had 507 and Pinellas 435, which leaves Pasco at 156 and Hernando with the rest.
The figures cover the whole metro as the Census Bureau draws it, which is four counties: Hernando County, Hillsborough County, Pasco County and Pinellas County. For comparison, the same area had 122 employer barbershops, roughly one for every 9 salons. Because CBP covers only establishments with paid employees, a stylist renting a booth or working alone is not in the salon count.
County by county, Hillsborough County had 507, Pinellas County 435 and Pasco County 156. Hillsborough County alone holds 44 percent of the metro total. By size, 837 had under five staff, 159 had five to nine, 105 had ten to nineteen, 36 had twenty to forty-nine, 3 had fifty to ninety-nine. Tampa Bay's 1,140 sits nearest to Minneapolis-St. Paul, which had 1,133. For other FL metros in the top 20 the counts were Miami 2,590, Orlando 854.
Florida's cosmetology chapter states that the legislature regulates cosmetology in the interest of public health, with restrictions limited to what is needed to protect the public from significant and discernible danger to health.
Frequently asked
How many hair salons are there in Tampa?
County Business Patterns counted 1,140 beauty salons with paid employees in the Tampa-St. Petersburg-Clearwater, FL metro in 2023. Stylists working alone with no payroll are not included.
Why does Florida regulate cosmetology?
Section 477.012 of the Florida Statutes says the legislature deems it necessary in the interest of public health to regulate the practice of cosmetology.
Can a booth renter keep their own schedule?
Yes. Every provider has their own working hours and services, so a stylist who rents a chair two days a week shows only on those days.
Can clients book a specific stylist?
Yes. Each stylist is a provider with their own services and hours, and clients choose one on the booking page or pick any available stylist.
