Isavis Holding Company is a private investment and holding firm dedicated to acquiring, modernizing, and growing premier personal care and beauty salons. We partner with established businesses that have strong reputations, talented teams, and deep community roots, providing the operational expertise and strategic leadership needed to help them reach their next stage of growth.

Founded by an experienced beauty industry professional, Isavis combines firsthand salon knowledge with disciplined business management. Our approach is rooted in the belief that successful salons thrive when operational excellence supports—not replaces—the unique culture, creativity, and client relationships that made them successful in the first place.

Rather than simply investing capital, we work alongside our portfolio companies to implement proven systems, improve performance, and create sustainable long-term value for employees, clients, and the communities they serve.

Savannah Slater founded Isavis Holding Company with a vision to elevate exceptional salon businesses through thoughtful investment and operational excellence. Her career began on the salon floor, where she gained years of frontline experience working her way through multiple roles at two prominent salons. This hands-on background provided a deep understanding of both the guest experience and the day-to-day realities of running a successful salon.

In addition to her service experience, Savannah developed expertise in salon operations, including inventory management, staff retention, digital booking optimization, and local marketing strategy. This combination of creative insight and operational discipline enables her to identify high-potential salon businesses and implement practical, value-driven improvements that strengthen profitability while preserving each salon’s individual identity.

We believe the strongest salon businesses are built around exceptional people, trusted client relationships, and enduring local brands. Our role is to enhance these foundations through modern operational strategies that support long-term growth.

Our investment approach includes:

• Stylist-First Culture – Creating clear career pathways, leadership development opportunities, and supportive workplace environments that attract and retain top talent.
• Revenue Optimization – Strengthening retail partnerships, refining service pricing, and improving operational efficiency to maximize profitability without compromising the client experience.

At Isavis Holding Company, we are active operators—not passive investors. Every acquisition is viewed as a long-term partnership focused on preserving what makes a salon exceptional while providing the tools, systems, and strategic guidance necessary for continued success.
