Salons, spas, barbers and aesthetics

Be the salon they can’t scroll past.

Beautiful websites for salons, aesthetics and beauty businesses that need to look premium, get found locally and turn visits into bookings.

What a salon website is for

Three jobs. That is the whole brief.

01

Look good

Someone scrolling at eleven at night stops, and thinks: that place looks worth it.

02

Get found

When they search for a salon near them, you are one of the ones that comes back.

03

Get booked

Deciding and booking happen in the same thirty seconds, on the same phone.

01 · Look good

Look as good online as you do in person.

You spent real money on the room, the lighting and the brand. The website is usually the only part that does not show it.

  • A visual identity that is yours. Colour, type and film taken from your actual salon, not a template with somebody else’s hair in it.
  • Premium on a phone first. Nearly every client will meet you on a small screen. That is the version we design first.
  • Your photography, used properly. Big, well cropped, and the shots you are actually proudest of.
  • A gallery that earns the booking. Filterable by service, with before and after where it helps and never where it does not.
  • Treatments presented like a menu, not a spreadsheet. Grouped, readable, easy for you to update.
  • Instagram and reviews woven in. So the site looks alive on a Tuesday in February, not abandoned.

02 · Get found

Be easier to find locally.

Most new clients do not arrive from your website. They arrive from a map, a search for a salon near them, or a review someone read at lunchtime.

  • Google Business Profile, done properly. Claimed, completed, categorised and connected to the site.
  • The local search foundations. Name, address, phone and hours consistent everywhere a machine might read them.
  • Structured business information. Marked up so search engines and answer engines can quote you correctly.
  • Service and area pages where they earn their place. Built for the searches people actually type, not stuffed with them.
  • Maps, hours, parking and how to find the door. The unglamorous details that decide a first visit.
  • Reviews where they change a mind. Next to the booking button, not buried on a page nobody opens.

We will not promise you a ranking. Nobody who is honest can. What we can do is make sure nothing on your side is in the way.

03 · Get booked

Make booking effortless.

A client decides on their phone, at night, in about eight seconds. If booking is not immediate and obvious, they book somewhere else.

  • Your booking system, connected. Whatever you already use. We build around it rather than asking you to move.
  • Fewer taps. Booking is reachable from anywhere on the site, not only from the menu.
  • A price menu people can read one-handed. Clear, current, and yours to update.
  • Contact details that work in one tap. Call, WhatsApp, directions, all live links.
  • A page flow built to convert. Every section ends somewhere useful instead of trailing off.
  • Fewer no-shows. Deposits, reminders and wording that reduce empty chairs.

The usual problem

The website is not the problem. Being invisible is.

Almost every salon we look at has the same three gaps, and none of them are about how pretty the site is.

01

Booking is three taps too far

The button is in the menu, the menu is a hamburger, and the hamburger is at the top of a page they have already scrolled past.

02

The photographs are doing nothing

You have hundreds of results on your phone. On the website there are four, they are small, and none of them are the ones you are proudest of.

03

Nobody local can find it

The map listing, the opening hours, the reviews, the near-me search. This is where new clients actually come from, and it is usually nobody’s job.

Live reference

Bloom is our own reference build for the beauty sector: a complete, working four-page salon site, not a picture of one. Open it on your phone and it behaves exactly as your own site would.

More to look at

Six directions, one afternoon.

Not sure what style you want? Look at these and point at one. That is a perfectly good brief.

Starting

You do not need a polished brief.

Send us what you already have. We turn it into the site, then you tell us what to change.

  • Your Instagram.
  • Your current website.
  • Your booking link.
  • Your logo.
  • Your price list.
  • Your photographs.
  • Screenshots of sites you like.

Common questions

The things salon owners ask.

Do I need to know anything technical?
None at all. You send your photos, your services and your prices. We build the whole thing and put it live. When you want a change, you email and we do it.
How long does it take?
About a week from the moment you send your photos and details. Often sooner.
Can clients book through it?
Yes. We link your site to whatever you already use, like Fresha, Treatwell or Booksy, or straight to your own number. One tap and they are booking.
What happens after it goes live?
We keep it online, fast, backed up and secure, and we make the updates and changes you need. You email, we do it. Your domain name is the one thing handled separately, and it stays yours.
Do I need my own domain name?
If you already have a web address, like yoursalon.co.uk, we point your new site at it and there is nothing more for you to do. If you do not have one yet you will need one, and we can register and set it up for you at cost. Either way we handle the technical side.
Do I own my salon website?
Yes. Your website, your web address, your content. We host it and look after it for you.

Start a salon project

Make your salon impossible to overlook.

Send your Instagram, your price list and the name of your town. That is genuinely enough for us to show you what your website could be.

Every project is scoped individually. Once we understand what you need, we will give you a clear fixed proposal before work begins.
