your own waxing studio. Every client. Every dollar.
Waxing clients are loyal — and fast. A good waxer can see six to eight clients a day. At that volume, splitting with a salon owner adds up quickly. Reed + Willow offers private waxing suites in Weldon Spring, MO where you keep 100% of every service.

Why waxing specialists choose Reed + Willow over the alternatives.
privacy
-
Your clients expect a private experience — we deliver it.
Waxing is personal — especially Brazilian and full-body services — it requires clients to be completely comfortable. A fully enclosed private suite with a proper door is the environment your clients need to relax, trust you, and rebook. Our fully enclosed suites with insulated walls and ceilings help prevent noise transfer and give you the privacy your services require.
infrastructure
-
Room for your wax warmer, supplies, disposal, and treatment table as well as bright professional lighting so you can see clearly for detailed brow, lip, and facial wax work.
Referrals
-
Built-in referral network for your business.
When other professionals in the building are asked about waxing services, they'll send clients your way. The Reed + Willow community actively refers across specialties — organic new client growth without extra marketing spend, plus, leasing your own suite eliminates the overhead of an independent location while giving you full control over your schedule, pricing, and client experience.
Answers before your tour
What's included in the weekly rent?
Your weekly rate covers the suite itself (cabinetry,
sink), all utilities (electricity, water, climate control), high-speed Wi-Fi, use of common areas such as the large break room and private restrooms, a dedicated webpage on Reed + Willow's website, and two weeks of free vacation per year where you can pause your rent. You provide your own professional products/equipment and carry your own liability insurance — that's standard for independent suite renters regardless of location. No hidden fees, no common-area surcharges on top of rent. When you tour, we'll walk you through exact current pricing.
What's included in the business startup package?
The startup package includes information on business entity formation, tax planning, professional licensing, insurance, business setup, marketing, suite setup, and salon operations but we are always available if you have any additional questions or need specific guidance.
Do I need an established clientele before I can rent?
While salon suites are best suited for wax specialists who already have an established book of business, Reed and Willow does provide tools to help you build and retain clients. We provide you a personal webpage on Reedandwillowsalon.com, with social media integration and send out notices when new clients call the salon looking for a waxer. If you have a fairly full book and you're ready to stop splitting your income, you're ready. Let's talk so we can see if the suite life is the right fit for you.
What equipment comes with the suite — do I need to bring my own treatment bed?
Each suite at Reed + Willow comes equipped with a mirror, custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, sink, integrated wireless phone chargers, ample outlets, 90+ CRI lighting and a damper to control the airflow within your suite. Discuss your specific equipment needs during your tour — if you have a service bed and equipment you want to bring just let us know so we can make sure the room can accommodate your needs. The goal is to get you operational from day one without having to source a full buildout before you can take your first client.
Can I sell retail skincare products from my suite?
Absolutely. Your suite is your business — you set your services, your products, and your pricing.
How much does it cost to rent a salon suite in St. Charles County?
Suite rental rates in the St. Charles County and St. Louis area vary based on suite size and what's included. At Reed + Willow, pricing is discussed directly during your tour because we want to match you to the right suite first — not quote you a number before you've seen the space or understood what's included. What we can tell you: there are no commission splits, no revenue percentages owed to us. You pay a flat weekly rate and keep every dollar you earn from every service you perform.
Is there hand-washing access in my suite?
Yes, all of our suites include a sink. We understand that cleanliness standards for waxing are non-negotiable.
Yes — the suite is your business space, not ours. You're free to decorate it to reflect your brand and create the client experience you want. If you have specific questions about what changes are permitted (paint, shelving, signage), ask during your tour and we'll give you a straight answer. Most renters at Reed + Willow have personalized their spaces significantly.
Can I decorate my suite and make it my own brand?
Do I need a business license or professional license to rent a suite?
Yes — you need valid Missouri Esthetician or Cosmetologist license to perform services from your suite. You also need a separate business license from Weldon Spring and a Merchant license from St. Charles if you plan to sell products. Luckily our "Welcome Packet" guides you through each of these steps with links and all information you need to get your new business up and running.
what are the lease terms?
Reed + Willow requires a one-year lease. That's worth knowing upfront. Here's why it works in your favor: a one-year commitment means your suite is yours — no one can bump you or raise your rate mid-term. It also means your fellow suite owners are committed professionals, not people rotating in and out every few weeks. If you have a solid client base and you're serious about building your business independently, a year goes fast. If you're not sure you're ready for that level of commitment yet, that's a useful thing to know about yourself before signing anything. Come tour, ask your questions, and make the call once you have all the information.
Will I have access to my suite 24/7, or are there set building hours?
Yes — you have 24/7 access to your suite. Your schedule is yours. If you have a client who needs a 7am appointment before work or a 9pm appointment after dinner, that's between you and your client. All suite owners at Reed + Willow have 24/7 access through an app on your phone and can unlock the front door remotely for clients if they arrive after hours.
Can I offer tinting or brow shaping in addition to waxing?
Absolutely. Your service menu is yours to define — add whatever your license covers (except lash services).
Do I need my own liability insurance?
Yes — all suite renters are independent business owners responsible for their own professional liability insurance.
Is the suite private enough for Brazilian and full-body waxing?
Yes — suites are fully enclosed rooms with proper doors, There are windows and lites in the doors but those can be covered with an opaque film giving you and your clients complete privacy.
Stop sharing your income with the salon's name above the door.
