Salono gives hair salons and independent stylists a branded booking page, colour records and deposits that protect the diary. No commission, no marketplace, no platform between you and your clients.
The marketplace charges you to win the client you will keep for years.
A first-time colour client can be worth thousands over the relationship. The big UK marketplaces take 20 to 35% of that first booking, then keep the client record on their platform, not yours.
150 min
of chair time lost to one colour no-show
A no-show on a balayage costs more than a quiet morning.
Long, high-value appointments are the hardest to refill at short notice. Without a deposit and a card on file, the empty chair is yours to absorb.
11pm
when your clients actually want to book
The booking happens at night, or it happens somewhere else.
Two thirds of UK clients prefer to book online. If your diary only opens when the phone is answered, the late-night booking goes to whoever is open at 11pm, which is usually a marketplace.
One book
where the colour formulas live
The colour history walks out the door when the book goes missing.
Formulas, patch tests and colour notes scribbled by the till work until they don’t. A new stylist, a lost page or a busy Saturday and the record is gone.
How Salono solves them.
01
A booking page that is yours
Your domain, your colours, your services. Clients book directly with you and no competitor appears next to your name. Salono never takes a cut.
No. Your first month is free, then you pay £19.99 per user, per month and keep every penny of every booking. Online card payments carry the standard Stripe processing fee of 1.5% + 20p, paid to Stripe, not us.
Q.Can I take a deposit for colour and balayage appointments?
A.
Yes. Set a deposit on any service, take it at the point of booking through Stripe, and keep a card on file for no-show cover on your longest appointments.
Q.Can I store colour formulas and patch-test records against a client?
A.
Yes. Client records hold formulas, notes and visit history, and digital patch-test and consultation forms file themselves against the right client automatically.
Q.Can each stylist have their own services and prices?
A.
Yes. Every stylist can carry their own service list, pricing, processing times and working pattern, all on the same diary.
Salono launches in August 2026. We are working with a small number of industry professionals to shape the platform before then. Add your business to the early access list and we will be in touch.
