Salons and barbers

Websites for salons and barbershops.

Clients want to see your work and book a time from their phone, and most would rather not call. We keep the Book now button going to the right place in your booking app, and we post new stylists and prices when you send them.

What we look after

What a salon website has to do.

Book appointments

Square Appointments, Vagaro, Booksy and Fresha all give you a booking page for your site. We link or embed yours and check it after every update.

Show your work

Photos of cuts and color are the first thing clients look at. We compress them so the gallery opens quickly on a phone.

Keep the service menu current

Services and prices change more than anything else on the site. Email us the new menu and we put it up.

Introduce the team

Plenty of clients book with one stylist and nobody else. We can give each stylist or barber a short page with a button to their own booking.

Sell gift cards

Gift cards come from your booking or payment system. We put the link on the homepage before the holidays, when people go looking for it.

Stay secure and backed up

A small salon site still gets hit by bots looking for old plugins. We keep the site updated, run malware scanning and a firewall, and back it up twice a day.

What we often hear

What usually goes wrong.

  • The Book now button still went to our old booking page a month after we switched systems.
  • A stylist left six months ago and is still on the website.
  • The price list on the site doesn't match the one at the front desk.
  • The gallery takes so long to load on a phone that people check Instagram instead.
A note from Ryan

I start with the Book now button

On a salon site, I start by tapping Book now on my phone and seeing where it goes. When a salon switches booking systems, it's easy to miss a button or two, and those keep sending clients to a page that no longer works. I'd also look at the team page, because a stylist who left last year is still on plenty of salon sites.

Is the Book now button still working?

Give us the address and we'll book a test appointment from a phone and follow every button that points to your booking page.

Add-ons for either plan

Common questions

What people ask us.

Yes, if your booking system supports it, and most do. Each stylist's page links to their own calendar, so a client picks the person first and then the time.

Yes. We find every page and button that points to the old system, switch them to the new one, and try a booking on a phone before we tell you it's done.

Yes. We can add a feed of your latest posts and load it so it doesn't slow the page down. It's worth keeping a gallery of your best work on the site as well, since a feed can stop showing when Instagram changes something on its end.

Yes, that's what Managed + Website is for. We build the new site and host it, and after that you email us changes like a new stylist or a price increase. When someone leaves, tell us and we take their page down.

What customers say.

Reviews from Trustpilot

A person could not find a better company for their internet needs. Customer service is number 1. Whenever we have an issue Ryan addresses the problem immediately no matter the time or day.

Hosterr actually has a soul Hosterr is one of the few tech companies that I use that doesn't feel like it's trying to squeeze every last dollar out of you. It works well, easy to switch and the services are fair value for my. A great fit for my marketing agency digital environment
Adam C.
Great customer service! I have multiple websites hosted on Hosterr. Setup was seamless and super easy, customer service has always been fantastic and quick to respond. I've had 100% uptime with no issues. Would recommend Hosterr to anyone looking for a reliable webhost.

I use Hosterr for multiple websites. I recommend them to anyone who needs hosting! I have never had an issue with downtime and my sites are blazing fast. Also their customer service is unmatched, leagues better than GoDaddy.
