Websites for salons.
A website for your salon that shows the work, lists the prices and lets people book without phoning.
We design your homepage first. You only pay if you want to go ahead.
What actually matters here.
People choosing a salon are choosing on look and on trust, in that order. They want to see actual work you have done, know what it costs before they walk in, and book at eleven at night when they think of it.
- A gallery of your own work, kept current
- A full price list — hiding prices loses more bookings than it protects
- Online booking or a one-tap WhatsApp to your front desk
- Your team, with faces and names
- Opening hours and a map that opens in their phone
- Instagram feeding in, so the site never looks stale
How your customers actually find you.
Discovery usually happens on Instagram; the decision happens on a search engine. Somebody sees your work in a feed, searches your name to find the price and whether you are open, and books — very often late at night, long after your front desk has gone home. A site that answers those three questions and takes the booking without a phone call converts that moment. One that says to call and enquire loses it.
The pages a salon's site needs.
Not a template — this is the shape we would actually recommend, and why each page earns its place.
The work first, then what you do and where you are.
The full list with prices. This is the page people actually come for.
Your own work, current. Fed from Instagram so it never goes stale.
Faces and names. People book a person, not a salon.
Online booking, or one tap to WhatsApp if you would rather keep it human.
Hours that are right, a map that opens in their phone, and parking if it is not obvious.
Start smaller and add pages later if you would rather. See plans and what they are worth to you, or check your current site free.
What goes wrong on most salons' sites.
Said plainly, because these are the faults we are asked to fix most often — and if your current site has them, that is the redesign conversation rather than a new build.
- No prices, on the theory that it protects you. It does not — it just means the person books the salon that published theirs.
- A gallery last updated two years ago, which reads as a business that has lost interest.
- Booking only by phone during working hours, when most of the deciding happens after nine at night.
- Stock photographs of models. Everyone can tell, and it makes your real work look less trustworthy by comparison.

Things people ask us.
Should I really put my prices on the website?
Yes. The fear is that prices scare people off, but what actually happens is that people who will not pay it never phone — which is the point — and people who will pay it book without a back-and-forth. Hiding prices costs you more bookings than it protects. If your pricing genuinely varies, publish a from-price and say what moves it.
Can people book online themselves?
Yes, and for a salon it is usually the highest-value thing on the site, because it captures the eleven-at-night decision. We can build a simple booking form that lands in your inbox, or wire in a proper booking system with your stylists' diaries. The simple version is included in a normal build; a full booking system is quoted separately.
Can my Instagram feed show on the site?
Yes, and for a salon we usually recommend it. It means the gallery updates itself every time you post, so the site never goes stale, and it saves you maintaining the same photographs in two places.
Do I have to pay before I see anything?
No. We design your homepage first and show it to you in a browser. If you do not like it, you owe us nothing. Only once you are happy do we agree a start date and take the first payment.
How much does a website for a salon cost?
One monthly price and no build fee: R 399, R 599 or R 899 a month, including the design, hosting and changes, or the year in one go with two months free. For most salons we recommend the Grow plan (R 599), because it answers every enquiry for you. Full SEO is an extra from R 3 500 a month. You see your homepage before you pay.
I already have a site but it does nothing for me.
That is the most common call we get, and AI-built sites are a growing share of it. Run the free website check on our homepage to see exactly what is wrong; most sites have the same three faults: slow, painful on a phone, and never telling the visitor what to do next. We tell you honestly whether it needs replacing or just repairing, with a fixed quote.
Do I need to write all the content myself?
No. Give us the rough facts — what you do, where you work, what you charge — and we will shape it into something that reads well and sells. You approve every word before it goes live.
What happens after the site is live?
We host it, keep it patched and backed up, and make small changes as your business changes. That is the "care" part, included in every plan. You are never left holding a website you cannot edit and cannot reach anybody about.
