Salon management software built around the way stylists actually work.

I'm building a new salon management platform and looking for 10 founding salons or stylists to help shape it. In exchange for honest feedback, early participants will receive lifetime free access if the product becomes useful for them.

No sales pitch. No finished product yet. Just honest feedback from people who actually work in salons.

Most salon software does too much, but still misses the daily details.

Many salon tools are powerful, but they can also feel cluttered, expensive, hard to navigate, or disconnected from the way stylists and front desk teams actually work. The goal of this project is to build something simpler and more focused, starting with the workflows that matter most.

Online booking that clients can actually use
Scheduling that feels fast, not frustrating
Client notes that front desk staff will not miss
Saved formulas and client history in one place
Simple checkout, tips, and payment tracking
Clear reports for owners and staff
A mobile experience that actually works

The first version will focus on the essentials.

Looking for 10 founding salons or stylists.

I'm inviting a small group of early users to help shape the product before it is fully built. If you are willing to share what works, what is frustrating, and what would actually make your day easier, I'll give you lifetime free access for your salon account if the platform becomes a good fit.

This is for people who want to give real feedback, not just try free software. Your input will directly influence the features, workflows, and priorities.

What you get

  • Lifetime free access for one salon account
  • Early influence on the product direction
  • A direct line to the person building it
  • A simpler tool designed around real salon workflows

What I ask

  • Complete a short survey
  • Optional 20-minute feedback call
  • Honest feedback on current salon software pain points
  • Willingness to test early versions when available

Built by a senior software developer who wants to listen first.

I'm a senior software developer with experience building production software, business systems, scheduling tools, CRMs, payment workflows, and custom applications. Before building too much, I want to learn from salon owners, stylists, booth renters, and front desk staff so this product is shaped around real needs instead of assumptions.

Tell me what salon software should actually do.
