About each permit
Salon or Shop License
A hundred and twenty-five dollars for the license itself, plus a separate $150 on-site inspection fee charged once at opening, for $275 to get started; renewal afterward is $125 a year, with no further inspection fee unless something changes. Relocating the salon or changing more than half its ownership requires a brand-new license rather than a simple renewal or transfer. All fees are stated as non-refundable.
