Study of 167 hair salons observed

A hair salon website should get you called. Not fill a page.

People choose a salon on the vibe they can sense before walking in. Without photos, reviews or online booking, they move to the next name on the list.

A salon is chosen by scrolling photos, not by reading copy about “the art of the cut”. If the site does not show the salon, the prices and a way to book, the client assumes it is complicated — or expensive — and books two streets away.

Sound familiar?

  • Someone wants a cut nearby. They scroll photos, not text. No photo: no visit.
  • No price: they assume it is expensive, or that they will have to call. They move on.
  • Booking still happens by phone between two clients. In the evening, nobody picks up.

Salon sites we read often talk about the team. Less often about prices, and even less about a booking button. That is what the visitor looks for first.

What the site must do

A salon is chosen on atmosphere and booking. The site should show the salon and let people book — not sell a “digital project”.

Photos, prices or ranges, hours, a booking button. The client decides in ten seconds. If booking still happens only by phone between two clients, you lose the ones who tap at 10pm.

We start with a short brief, a first version and a launch, then we edit every month. How we work is on how it works. Figures come from the 1,500-site study. Packs stay on /en/pricing.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can I display my prices?+

Yes, and it will actually set you apart: in our study, most salons hide their prices. Transparency attracts the right customers and filters out the hesitant ones.

Can you connect a booking tool?+

Yes — a button to your booking solution or a simple contact form, depending on your plan. No need to make people wait for a call.

Does the site work if there are several stylists in the salon?+

Yes, we can present the team and each person's specialities — useful when a customer is looking for whoever did their last cut.

Can I change my photos with trends or seasons?+

Yes — that's exactly the point of your monthly included changes: a salon that shows its latest work is far more appealing than a gallery frozen since opening.
