Hammer & Nails After Shark Tank

Hammer & Nails left Shark Tank without a Shark deal, but the exposure still produced the money Michael Elliot wanted: later reports say viewers and angel investors put in $200,000 after the episode aired (Shark Tank Blog Hammer & Nails update , BlackBusiness.com post-show funding report ).

The concept moved from a single men-focused nail salon into a broader grooming franchise with manicures, pedicures, haircuts, shaves, and grooming treatments (Hammer & Nails 50th-location announcement , Shark Tank Blog Hammer & Nails update ).

By 2025, Hammer & Nails was at national-franchise scale: a company announcement said it was opening its 50th franchise location, while the franchise site listed 54 open shops across 15 states and 36 planned locations for 2025 (Franchising.com 2025 Hammer & Nails milestone , Hammer & Nails franchise locations ).
