AI enablement for salons and spas in Salt Lake City.
Hair salons, med spas, and day spas use AI to drive rebooking discipline, recover no-shows, and run personalized client outreach without putting the front desk on the phone all day.
Salt Lake City has roughly 200,000 residents and is the anchor of the surrounding Utah metro. Local operators here run against the same front desk struggles to upsell add-ons and retail at checkout while answering phones and processing tip splits.

Local nuance, federal posture.
Silicon Slopes tech hub with enterprise software focus. For salons and spas working this market, that means rebooking rates of 35–55% leave 6-week color clients drifting to competitors despite high satisfaction.
We engage salons and spas from Salt Lake City on a remote-first basis with on-site availability for integration days, training, and major workflow rollouts. Engagements ship in two-week sprints with written acceptance criteria — the same discipline we run on DoD prime engagements, applied to a salon or spa P&L.
Four workflows we deploy first.
Online consult & service triage
Route new clients to the right service (balayage vs. highlights, basic facial vs. peel) before booking.
AI conducts a chat-based consult, asks for inspiration photos, recommends the right service and duration, and books with the appropriate-level provider.
Med-spa intake, consent & before/after photos
Capture medical history, consent, and standardized photos for injectable and energy-based treatments.
AI parses uploaded ID and intake responses, structures the consent record for state-board audits, and matches before/after photos to treatment for marketing approval and outcomes tracking.
Reviews, social, and content
Build a 4.9-star Google profile and keep Instagram fed with on-brand content.
AI triggers review requests at peak satisfaction, drafts owner-voice review responses, and generates caption/hashtag drafts from service photos the team uploads.
Retail attach & inventory
Increase product attach at checkout and keep top-selling SKUs in stock.
AI suggests the right retail product to each client based on service history, sends a post-visit reminder when usage should be running low, and forecasts inventory reorder.
