Customers

For customers

Get the service you want, when and where you want it.

1

Tell us what you need

Pick a service (nails, hair, lashes, waxing, facial, or massage), enter your address or tap "Near Me," choose a time window, and set a budget.

2

Add inspiration

Upload a photo of the look you want and add notes — the salon sees exactly what you have in mind before they offer.

3

Get offers from nearby salons

Verified salons within your area see your request and send price offers. You pick the one you like.

4

Confirm & enjoy

When you accept an offer, the booking is locked in. Show up, get pampered, and leave a review afterward.

Salon Owners

For salon owners & independent techs

Fill empty chairs with real customers in your service area — no commissions, no contracts.

1

Sign up & verify your license

Upload your state board license (cosmetologist, manicurist, esthetician, barber, or establishment). We check it against the state board.

2

Set your service area

Tell us how far you're willing to travel for clients (or how far they should be from your shop). You only see requests inside that radius.

3

Send offers — first to claim wins

When a nearby customer posts a request, you'll see it instantly. Send your price. The first salon the customer accepts wins the job.

4

Build your reputation

Every completed booking gets a review. Build a 5-star profile that ranks you higher in search.

Trust & Safety

Safety & trust, built in

Licensed professionals only

Every salon owner and technician must upload a valid state board license. We verify each one before they can accept customers.

Real business addresses

Salon addresses are checked against public maps. We flag any listing at a residential address so customers know they're going somewhere legitimate.

Storefront verification

Owners upload a photo of their storefront with visible signage. No fake listings.

Two-way reviews

After every booking, both customer and salon leave reviews. Trust gets earned over time.

Phone-verified claims

When an owner claims a listing, we send a 6-digit code to the salon's phone. Only someone in the building can pick up — that's how we know it's really them.

Frequently asked questions

Is BelleIndex available in my city?
Yes — we cover all 50 states. Use the "Near Me" button on the homepage to see salons within a few miles of you.
Do I have to create an account to browse?
No. You can browse and view salon profiles without signing up. You only need an account to post a service request, leave a review, or save favorites.
How do you verify licenses?
Salon owners upload a clear photo of their state board license at registration. Our team manually verifies each license against the issuing state board (e.g., California DCA) before activating the account.
What if a salon doesn't show up?
They may not be listed yet. Send the salon to belleindex.com and ask them to claim or create their free profile.
Can I cancel a booking?
Yes. You can cancel directly from "My Bookings." We recommend giving the salon at least 24 hours notice as a courtesy.
I'm a tech without my own salon — can I sign up?
Absolutely. Choose "Independent Technician" at registration. You'll need your individual state board license. You can accept jobs at the customer's preferred location or your home studio.
