What Is Floyd's 99?

Floyd's 99 is a franchise in the Personal Care category. It operates from brick-and-mortar retail locations, typically in leased shopping centers, serving individual consumers (B2C). The core service bundle includes stylish, professional haircuts, barber-specific services like face shaves, and hair color and facial waxing for men and women, along with retail grooming products.

Floyd's 99 Franchise: Pros and Cons

This franchise offers strong territory protection and a clean legal record, but it provides zero formal training hours and requires you to give your manager a 5% ownership stake, which dilutes your equity.

Pros

Strong territory protection (score of 59) gives you a shielded operating area, reducing the risk of nearby competition from the same brand.

Zero terminations, non-renewals, lawsuits, or government penalties in the public record-a clean history that suggests stable, satisfied franchisees.

Unusually franchisee-friendly contract terms: initial fees refundable on failure, no extra charge for on-site support, you have a right of first refusal, and the franchisor can't unilaterally change the training program.

Cons

The franchisor provides zero formal training hours, leaving you to figure out the operational playbook on your own-a major gap compared to industry standards.

You must give your manager a 5% ownership stake-a rare, restrictive requirement that dilutes your equity and complicates hiring.

With 71 company-owned stores (well above typical), the franchisor may prioritize corporate growth over supporting franchisees; this warrants extra scrutiny of their long-term commitment to the franchise model.
