Cut hair salon admin with AI
Salon admin lives in stylists’ heads and on sticky notes: color formulas, client preferences, product stock and who owes booth rent. AI can keep formulas and notes in a searchable record, flag products running low and tally what each stylist is owed or owes. A person checks the totals before anything is paid.
Talk through your salon with the person who builds it
A free 30-minute call. You leave knowing which part of your hair salon to hand to AI first, what we would build, and roughly how long it takes.
Color formulas that outlast a stylist
A formula written on paper is gone when the stylist leaves. A record that stores what was mixed, how long it processed and how it turned out helps whoever sits down with that client next.
Inventory without the clipboard
If your system knows what each service uses, it can tell you when you are low on a developer or a favorite shade, and draft the reorder.
Pay and rent
Commission, tips and booth rent are easy to get wrong when tallied by hand. A report that totals each person’s week for you to check turns Sunday night into ten minutes.
Picture this
Examples of what it can look like. Illustrations, not clients.
A stylist photographs a color bowl and says what she mixed. The record is updated before the next client sits down.
The system notes that a toner you use every day is nearly out and drafts the order for you to approve.
On Sunday evening, you see a total for each stylist’s week and spot a mismatch before payday.
