The Real Cost of Running a Salon

Four problems draining
your business every week.

01
Missed bookings add up fast
A 4-chair salon misses an average of 6–8 enquiries per week while staff are with clients. At £50 average service value, that's £400/week — £20,800/year — simply from not being able to respond fast enough.
02
No-shows are a staffing tax
The average salon no-show rate is 12–15%. That's 1 in 8 booked slots that go unfilled. Without deposits and proactive reminders, you're paying overheads for empty chairs every single day.
03
Hiring costs a fortune
Recruitment agencies charge 15–25% of first-year salary. For a senior stylist at £28k, that's £5,600–£7,000 per hire. And you still don't know if they're right until they've been in for 3 months.
04
Lapsed clients are silent revenue
68% of clients who stop visiting would return — if someone reached out. Most salons never reach out. Clients aren't leaving because they're unhappy. They're leaving because life got busy and you didn't remind them you exist.

One platform.
Every problem solved.
