Studio RK Expands Salon to Meet Growing Client Demand

FORT MYERS, Fla. (Feb. 13, 2008) – Studio RK, a full-service salon in Fort Myers, has expanded. The salon is leasing a 1,700-square-foot adjacent storefront previously occupied by J.J. Denim, increasing its total space to 4,500 square feet.

The new addition accommodates 10 hair-styling areas, bringing the salon’s total to 29, plus three nail stations. The additional chairs are needed to serve the salon’s growing client base and allow for future growth, according to salon owner Renee Walker. A year ago, the salon served an average of 1,450 clients per month. The salon’s 40 person staff currently serves 1,650 and hopes to increase to 2,000 clients per month in the near future, Walker said.

“Our growth is a direct result of our successful associates program,” said Walker. “We provide extensive training and personal mentoring to all of our stylists, which results in more repeat customers and many word-of-mouth referrals.”

Studio RK Salon is located in Fort Myers at 6420 Plantation Park Court, Suite 102 and Suite 103, just off Daniels Parkway. Hours of operation are Monday-Thursday 8:30 a.m.-8 p.m., Friday 8:30 a.m.-6 p.m. and Saturday 8:30 a.m.-7 p.m.

Studio RK Salon has been providing salon services including haircutting, coloring, styling, manicures and pedicures, to the Lee County market for the past 17 years. In 2005 and 2006, it was nominated for the Global Salon Business Award, and it is a KRS Summit Salon. For more information, call (239) 489-4144.
