Let your next client find you —
without your phone owning you.
HAO starts with your Profile and the Directory, so clients searching for Asian-hair expertise find you first. Then Reply Pro™, Consult Pro™, Booking Desk™ and Kits catch the inquiries, consultations, bookings and daily chores — all inside one My Chair. Your focus stays on the craft.

Your backstage is ready before you are.
This is My Chair on day one — a short opening checklist, your tool shelf, your public storefront. Five minutes to set the chair up; after that it works while you cut.
Faithful miniature, nothing staged: the checklist, the shelf and the storefront link are exactly what's inside. The free plan gets all three.
Open yours — free →From getting found to running the whole chair.
HAO Profile + Directory
Instagram alone doesn't catch every high-intent search.
Build and manage a professional presence inside HAO's Asian-hair discovery ecosystem.
Reply Pro™
“How much?” “Free Saturday?” “Where do I park?” “Can you do this hair?”
Cut the repetitive replies and move interest to a clear next step.
Consult Pro™
The client sees a reference photo. You see condition, damage, maintenance and expectations.
Turn your professional judgment into a consultation the client can see.
Booking Desk™LIVE · Free to use
The conversation lives in your phone; the schedule lives in another system.
Connects the Square and Google Calendar you already use — no migration, bookings and payments stay on your own system.
HAO Kits™
Price menu, calendar visual, aftercare card, name card… none of it is hard — together it eats your day off.
Hand them over one by one. Most are free.
One day with HAO.

Your Profile is free. Tools are pay-per-need.
No bundle. Free stays free; each paid tool is its own monthly subscription — add one when you need it, cancel anytime. And you never have to move your existing systems to use HAO.
Tools whose output you post — calendar, price menu, before/after, review cards, and more. Plus your profile.
One-shot templates & calculators.
Tools that store data, use AI, or run a team.
Consult Pro™ & Reply Pro™ — usage billed at our real cost.
Reply Pro™ and Consult Pro™ are two separate subscriptions at $9.9/mo each — not one $9.9 bundle.

No moving house. Just add the layer you're missing.
Do you need another full salon system — or just the HAO layer?
Square, Fresha, Vagaro and GlossGenius are strong booking and business platforms. The honest question isn't “who replaces whom” — it's which layer you're missing.
Pricing checked 2026-08-10 · Prices may change — see each provider for current terms.
You don't necessarily need to switch systems.
You might just be missing the HAO layer.
If you already run Square — keep Square. Connect HAO where supported, and use HAO for the parts your booking software was never primarily designed to solve: Asian-hair client discovery, a professional Profile, consultation, the inquiry workflow, and lightweight chair tools.
Your time costs far more than a Kit.
If a tool removes even one repetitive task, the subscription is already trivial next to what an hour in your chair is worth.
- 20 minutes formatting a price menu
- 30 minutes building a schedule post
- The same late-night DMs, again
- Retyping the same aftercare instructions
- Redoing name cards and QR assets
Illustrative scenarios — not measured hours.
「What's truly tiring isn't doing the client's hair well. It's everything after — replying to messages, sorting the schedule, making the price menu, chasing booking confirmations, producing content. We built HAO for a simple reason: these are the exact things we didn't want to redo every single day ourselves.」
This is our own salon, not a third-party endorsement — every tool runs here first before it reaches the shelf.
Stylists ask us
Is the HAO Profile really free?
Yes — creating, claiming and keeping your Profile is free, permanently.
I already have Instagram — why HAO?
Instagram reaches people who already follow you. HAO catches the ones searching — city pages, hair guides, the Directory and AI search lead to a page where your services, languages and booking path are comparable at a glance.
I already use Square — can they work together?
Yes. That's exactly what Booking Desk™ is for: it connects the Square you already run. Everything else on HAO doesn't touch your Square at all.
I'm on Fresha — do I need to switch?
No. HAO isn't a booking-system replacement. Keep Fresha for bookings; HAO adds the discovery, inquiry and consultation layer. (Calendar connections currently support Square and Google Calendar.)
What's the difference between Reply Pro™ and Booking Desk™?
Reply Pro™ handles the conversation — drafting replies in your voice. Booking Desk™ handles the schedule — connecting your Square and Google Calendar. Together: inquiry → reply → availability → booking.
Is Consult Pro™ for the client or for me?
Both. You run it in the consultation chair; the client sees the result with you and you decide together.
Do I have to subscribe to all the Kits?
No. Every paid Kit is its own subscription — take one, or none.
Can I use only the free tools?
Yes. Free tools stay free, with a free account and nothing else.
I rent a chair / booth — is HAO for me?
Especially for you. HAO is built for independent professionals — your Profile is yours, no salon required.
I'm also a salon owner — what then?
One HAO account holds both roles; you switch between My Chair and My Salon inside the same login. For salon owners →
