Figures above are as disclosed in Dashing Diva's most recent FDD (registered 2023). Source: California Dept. of Financial Protection and Innovation — Franchise Registration · filing app-27531. The risk level, the Item 19 figures, how it compares to peers, and the litigation & churn detail are in the full report.
Dashing Diva franchise profit — what the FDD discloses
Plainly: Dashing Diva does not disclose franchise profit or revenue. Its most recent FDD makes no Item 19 financial performance representation, so there is no franchisor-backed earnings figure for Dashing Diva — any number quoted elsewhere is an estimate, not a disclosure. The absence is itself worth weighing (many beauty & personal care franchisors do disclose), and the full report reads the risk signals Dashing Diva's FDD does contain — fees, litigation, and outlet churn — against peers. For brands that put earnings on paper, see Salon, beauty & personal care franchises with disclosed Item 19 earnings.
Dashing Diva lawsuits & legal history (FDD Item 3)
We do not publish a litigation answer for Dashing Diva. Item 3 could not be read reliably from this particular filing, and a claim that a company has no legal history is not one to make on a failed parse — so we say we do not know instead. Item 3 of the FDD itself is the place to check; the methodology page explains what we do and do not machine-read.
Dashing Diva closures & failure rate
Before you sign, Dashing Diva will hand you a list of current owners to call as references — and they choose who's on that list. It won't include the owners who quit, got bought out, or were forced out last year. The FDD does report that number, even though the reference list leaves those people off. Below is what Dashing Diva's most recent filing shows, and whether it's normal for a beauty & personal care of this kind.
The closest thing an FDD has to a failure rate is Item 20 — outlet openings, closures, terminations and non-renewals, reported by the franchisor. Dashing Diva's outlet tables are read directly from the FDD in the full report. The actual closure and termination counts, and how Dashing Diva's churn ranks against beauty & personal care peers, are in the full report.

Who owns Dashing Diva?
Dashing Diva's franchise is offered by Dashing Diva Franchise Corp. — the franchisor named on the cover of its most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2023), and the entity a franchisee actually signs with. That name comes straight off the filing at CA DFPI; it identifies the franchisor, not necessarily the ultimate parent company behind it.
