The problem
The calls you can't take
Your hands are in a client's hair
Stopping a color or a cut to answer the phone isn't fair to the client in your chair. Letting it ring isn't fair to the one calling.
People call after closing
Plenty of clients call in the evening, when the salon is dark. If nobody answers, they book somewhere that did.
New clients call once
A first-time client who reaches voicemail rarely tries again. They just call the next salon on the map.
A sample call
A real salon call, handled
Here's how Maria handles a typical call for a salon business. The business (Luxe Hair Studio) and the caller are made up. The flow is what your customers get.
When she hangs up, the details go straight to the owner by text and email, like the summary at the top of this page.
What she asks
The questions that matter
We set Maria up with the questions your business needs. For salon calls, that usually means:
- Name and the best number to call back
- The service they want: cut, color, highlights, blowout, nails and more
- New or returning client
- Stylist preference
- The days and times that work for them
- Anything you should know before the visit
Want her to ask something else? Tell us during setup and she will.
Built around your day
How it fits your work
Maria isn't a booking app, and she doesn't replace one. She covers the people who'd rather call, and the calls that come in while everyone is with a client or after you've closed.
Every summary tells you the service, the client's name and the times that work for them, so you can confirm in one quick call or text between appointments.
She works for hair salons, nail salons, barbershops and spas alike. If your phone rings while your hands are busy, she's built for you.

What Maria does today
We'd rather you know exactly what you're getting. Here's the honest list.
She does
- Answers your calls 24/7, nights, weekends and holidays included
- Greets callers with your business name and sounds natural, not like a phone menu
- Asks for the caller's name, number, what they need, the address and when they need it
- Sends you a text and an email with those details as soon as the call ends
Not yet
- She doesn't book jobs into your calendar. You call the customer back and set the time
- She doesn't transfer live calls to your phone
- She doesn't quote prices or promise arrival times. She leaves that to you

FAQ
Salons: questions owners ask
Can Maria book appointments in my booking app?
Not yet. Today she takes the client's details and the times that work for them, and you confirm the appointment. If you already use online booking, she covers the people who'd rather call.
Can she tell callers our hours?
Yes. We set her up with your hours, address and services, so she can answer the basics.
Will she quote prices?
She doesn't quote prices today. She notes what the client asked about so you can answer when you call back.
Does she work for nail salons and barbershops?
Yes. Any business that misses calls while working with a client is a good fit.
Can I keep my salon's number?
Yes. Forward your calls to Maria, all of them or only the ones you miss.
