Smart accounting and advisory services for growing salons.
Running a salon is more than providing great services, it’s managing cash flow, paying yourself correctly, staying compliant, and making smart decisions as your business grows. Salon owners also face unique financial challenges, from tip reporting and payroll compliance to tax planning, expansion decisions, and understanding true profitability. Our salon accounting and advisory services focus on helping salon owners make sense of their numbers and use them to run stronger, more profitable businesses year round, not just at tax time.
Who We Work With
We work with salon and beauty business owners who want more than basic tax filing, including:
• Employee based salons
• Hybrid models
• Multi-location and growing salon groups
• Salon franchise owners
• Owners planning for expansion, restructuring, or exit
If you’re looking for a CPA who understands how salons operate and provides ongoing guidance, not just a once a year tax return, we’re a strong fit.
Why We Do This
We love empowering salon owners so they can understand their business and thrive on their own terms.
How We Help Salon Owners
Rather than offering one off services, we take an advisory led approach designed around the realities of salon ownership.
Tax Planning Built for Salons
We go beyond compliance to help you:
• Reduce tax liability through proactive planning
• Navigate industry specific tax issues like tip reporting and tip credits
• Make informed decisions before year end, not after it’s too late
Financial Clarity and Owner Pay Strategy
Salon owners often struggle to answer basic questions:
• How much should I pay myself?
• Which services or locations are profitable?
• Can I afford to hire, expand, or invest right now?
We help you understand your financials and use them to guide decisions with confidence.
Ongoing Advisory Support
As your salon grows, questions don’t wait for tax season. Our advisory approach gives you access to guidance throughout the year, whether you’re adding a location, changing compensation structures, or evaluating new opportunities.
Our Advisory First Approach
Many salon owners choose to work with us through an ongoing advisory relationship, rather than disconnected, transactional services. This approach allows us to:
• Stay involved throughout the year
• Anticipate issues before they become problems
• Provide advice aligned with your goals, not just compliance deadlines
Think of us as an extension of your leadership team who is focused on helping you run your salon more effectively.
Why Salon Owners Choose Boyum Barenscheer
• Industry experience working specifically with salons and beauty businesses
• Advisory led mindset, not just tax preparation
• Clear communication without accounting jargon
• Long term partnership as your business evolves
Are we the right fit?
Our salon services are best suited for owners who:
• Want proactive guidance, in addition to tax filing
• Are focused on growth, improvement, or long term planning
• Value understanding their numbers and using them strategically
If you’re simply looking for the lowest cost tax return, we may not be the best fit, and that’s okay.
