How Does Financing for New Start Beauty & Aesthetics Businesses Work?

Start-up beauty and aesthetics businesses often use Asset Finance to fund treatment chairs, laser machines, or salon equipment. Business Loans are ideal for launch costs, products, staffing, or training. Fit-Out Finance can help if you’re creating a new space or refurbishing your clinic or salon. Did you know, Franchise Finance is available if you’re opening under an established franchise?

Once you’re ready, your Account Manager will compare lenders, secure a tailored offer, and guide you through the simple steps. Funding can often be approved and ready to release within 24 hours.

You can also explore our tools to support your decision-making — including our repayment calculators to get a clear idea of costs, and our eligibility checker for a quick, commitment-free check on potential funding options.
