A receptionist that doesn’t miss the chair’s gap.
An AI receptionist for Manchester salons, beauty clinics and aesthetics practices. Books treatments around your therapists’ columns, handles deposits and cancellations, and texts the next person on the waitlist before the chair goes cold.
How it works for beauty & salons.
Out-of-the-box configuration tuned to the way beauty & salons actually take calls. Adjustable in setup.
Books by therapist & service
Reads your column-by-therapist diary properly — so a client asking for Maya for a balayage doesn’t get offered Jess for a tint.
Handles deposits & cancels
Quotes your deposit policy, sends the payment link, and processes cancellations within window cleanly — protecting your column from chancers.
Works the waitlist
When a slot opens, the AI can text the next person on the waitlist with a 60-minute take-or-leave offer. The chair fills itself.
Patient-grade for aesthetics
For clinics: medical history capture, consultation booking and pre-treatment instructions — without breaching the bits that need a clinician.
Trained for your salons & clinics. Sounds like a real human.
Pick one agent, or run all three together. Each one is trained on your services, prices and rules — so callers get the same answer your best receptionist would give.
AI receptionist vs. the traditional setup
Honest side-by-side for beauty & salons. The right answer depends on call volume and how much of your day the phone eats.

Market rates are indicative. Final pricing depends on call volume and setup.
Beauty & salons ask us…
Will it work with my salon software?
Most likely. We integrate with the major UK salon booking systems via calendar sync or API. For smaller setups we work directly off a shared Google Calendar.
Can it handle deposit-taking?
Yes — it can read out your deposit policy and send a payment link by SMS during the call. The booking is held provisionally until payment lands, on the rules you set.
What about cancellations and the no-show problem?
It enforces your cancellation window the same way every time — no awkward conversations, no exceptions for the loudest client. Late cancels go through the deposit / fee rule you wrote.
How does it handle the waitlist?
When a slot opens (cancel or column gap), the AI offers it to the next person on the waitlist by SMS with a short take-or-leave window. First yes wins, chair fills, no one chases.
For aesthetics — can it take medical history?
It can capture basic information for the consultation, but anything clinical is flagged for the practitioner to review at the consultation itself. The AI doesn’t make clinical judgements.
Can different therapists have different rules?
Yes. Maya works Tuesday–Saturday, doesn’t do extensions; Jess takes new clients only on Wednesdays. All scriptable, all enforced consistently.
Set up for your sector, not generic.
