Google Business Profile setup and daily backups included.
Someone books a salon from a phone, usually between other errands. They want a cut, color, a balayage, a keratin treatment, or hair for a wedding, and they want a person, not a logo. They check whether you take new guests, whether their stylist is still there, and whether the hours on the site match the door. If the book button is buried or the service list is a screenshot from three years ago, they book the next salon.
We build that site fully turnkey: we write, design, build, launch, and host it. The price is $0 down and $249/mo hosting, and it is live in less than a week. The team is 100% US-based, made in the USA, in Yardley, PA.
What gets in the way for hair salons
The menu is a photo of a paper price list
A picture of a laminated card is hard to read on a phone and impossible to update when a treatment changes. Guests also cannot land on a page about color correction or extensions if those words never exist as text.
Stylists are missing or outdated
People follow a stylist, not the front desk. If someone left last spring and their name is still on the site, you book a guest you cannot seat. If your strongest colorist has no page, their regulars cannot send friends to the right chair.
Booking and the website disagree
Hours, services, and who is taking new guests need to match the tool you already book in. A site that says walk-ins welcome while the book is full by Wednesday creates the one-star visit before anyone mixes color.
The gallery is not your work
Hair photos travel easily and get reused. Guests can tell when a balayage on the site does not look like the work in your chairs. Publish hair you have permission to show, or leave the space quiet.
New guests do not know the rules
How early to arrive, what a color appointment asks of them, and how you handle a late cancel are front-desk speeches you repeat all day. The site can say them once, in your tone.
Wedding season and prom are invisible until the week of
Bridal hair, prom updos, and holiday parties are booked earlier than a bang trim. If the site never mentions them, you find out when the calendar is already tight.
A deep business audit, built around hair salons
The deep business audit for a hair salon is about the book, not a service van. We learn which services fill chairs, which stylists want new guests, and how an appointment actually gets made.
- Which services do you want more of: cuts, color, blonding, keratin, extensions, or styling for events?
- Who is taking new guests, and who is booked with regulars only?
- Do you use a booking product already, and should the site link to it or embed it?
- What are the real hours, including days you are closed, and who updates them when you change a Saturday?
- What do new guests ask before they book: price range, how long color takes, parking, who they will see?
- Which photos do you have permission to publish, and which stylists want a portrait on their page?
Competitive market research before we design
Competitive market research for salons looks at the shops a guest would compare on a map: their service lists, stylist pages, photos, and how fast a phone gets to a book button.
- Whether nearby salons list color, cuts, and treatments as readable text or as a single image
- If each stylist has a page with the services they actually perform
- How obvious booking is on a phone, and whether hours match the Google listing
- What the galleries show: salon work with a consistent eye, or unrelated hair from the internet
- How they explain a new-guest visit, late policy, and event styling
- What reviews name, often a stylist, a color result, and whether the guest felt rushed
Must-have pages for hair salons
Services
Cuts, color, treatments, and extensions as text you can edit. If you publish prices, they are yours. We do not invent a menu.
Stylists
A page or section per person who wants to be booked, with what they do and whether they are open to new guests.
New guests
What to expect, what to tell you about your hair history, and how booking the first visit works.
Color and the specialty work you want
Blonding, color correction, keratin, or extensions get their own page when that is work you want found. Correction especially needs honest wording about a consult first.
Events and bridal
If you style for weddings, proms, or photos, say how far ahead to book and whether you travel to the getting-ready spot or only work in the salon.
Hours and finding the salon
Hours, a map, and whatever you want to say about parking or the building. We publish your facts. We do not put our own street or phone on your page or ours.
Book
Sends the guest into the booking tool you already use, or explains walk-ins if that is truly how you work.
Features that earn their place
A book button that stays put on a phone
The decision happens on a small screen. The path to an appointment should not depend on finding the footer.
Services as text, not a picture of a menu
Text can be updated, read aloud by a phone, and matched to a search for a specific treatment.
Stylist availability in your words
Open to new guests, or regulars only. This saves the front desk from undoing a booking.
Gallery limited to work you can stand behind
Hair you have permission to show, tied to the stylist when that is how guests choose.
Google Business Profile hours that match the site
Google Business Profile setup is included. For a salon, wrong hours and missing photos are the usual reason a map listing loses a booking.
Fully custom, not a template with your logo on it
Color-first studio
A fully custom layout can open on blonding and dimension, with a consult note for color correction, while haircuts stay easy to find for regulars.
Neighborhood shop with walk-ins
If you truly take walk-ins for cuts, the homepage can say so and still push color and longer services onto the book so the chairs are not a surprise.
Booth and suite mix
When stylists keep their own books, each page can point to that stylist's booking link instead of one shared calendar that lies.
Event-heavy calendar
Bridal and prom can lead in the months you choose, then step back to everyday color without a redesign.

What a hair salon website costs
A lot of salons accept the website that came with their booking software. It lists services and looks like every other shop on that platform. An agency site can look sharper and still forget to update a stylist who left. Either one drifts from the book.
You pay $0 down and $249/mo hosting. 12-month ownership terms: 12 months of hosting at $249/mo, then month to month. Leave earlier and the remaining hosting or a buyout of the build is due. We reply within one business day when hours or a stylist change.
We will not promise filled chairs. A custom booking app is not this offer. We link or embed the product you already run. Larger builds are on packages. Salon sites sit with our other beauty websites.
$0 down vs. a typical agency vs. a DIY builder
Three common ways to get a small business website, side by side.
| Compare | Artol Web Studio | Typical agency | DIY website builder |
|---|---|---|---|
| Upfront cost | $0 down | A build fee, often partly due before work starts | No build fee, but you pay with your own time |
| Monthly cost | $249/mo hosting with 12-month terms | Hosting and maintenance are often billed separately | A plan fee, plus paid add-ons |
| Time to launch | Less than a week | Depends on the agency's schedule and your revisions | Depends on how many evenings you can give it |
| Who does the work | We write, design, build, and launch it | The agency, with you managing the project | You do |
| Design | Fully custom | Custom or template, depending on budget | A template you adapt |
| Business audit and market research | Included | Sometimes, often as a paid discovery phase | Not included |
| Backups and updates | Daily backups and two small content updates a month | Depends on the maintenance plan | Depends on the plan, and updates are on you |
| Google Business Profile | Setup included | Sometimes, as an add-on | Not included |
| Support | Reply within one business day from a 100% US-based team | Depends on the agency | Help center and support tickets |
Ask any provider, including us, for the full terms in writing before you sign.
Questions we get asked
Can you put our real prices on the service menu?
Yes, if you provide them. We do not invent prices for cuts, color, or treatments. When a price changes, updating it can be one of your two small content updates a month.
What if each stylist uses a different booking link?
Each stylist page can go to that person's book. We do not force one calendar if that is not how the salon works.
Do you write descriptions of balayage and color correction?
Yes, in plain language, then you fix anything that does not match how your chairs work. Color correction pages should say that a consult comes first if that is your rule.
Can you use hair photos from the internet as filler?
No. The gallery is your work, with permission, or it waits. Stock or illustrated images, if we need them elsewhere, are labeled as general and never presented as your haircuts.
Is Google Business Profile part of the salon site?
Yes. Setup is included. Hours, services, and photos are aligned with the website so the map listing and the site do not argue.
How fast can we launch, and can you change a stylist later?
Live in less than a week. Adding or removing a stylist is a normal content update, and we reply within one business day.
