For salons & spas · Tucson first

Early-access preview. Automated texting and scheduling are not live yet.

Your front desk, open after close.

J. Braun Desk answers client texts after hours, fills last-minute cancellations from your waitlist, and reminds clients when it's time to rebook, so fewer chairs sit empty.

Built and being tested inside J Braun Salon Spa, a working Tucson salon.

Where the money goes

Empty chairs usually come from four small leaks.

None of them is anyone's fault. Your team is behind the chair, not at the phone.

01

After-hours messages

A client texts at 9 PM. By morning she's booked somewhere else.

02

Last-minute cancellations

A slot opens at 8 AM and nobody has time to call around.

03

Clients who drift

Regulars go eight weeks, then twelve, then don't come back.

04

Reviews nobody asks for

Happy clients leave quietly. Only unhappy ones write reviews unprompted.

What it does

A front desk that follows up every time.

Answers texts, day and night

Replies in your salon's voice, shares open times from your calendar, and gets the client booked. Anything tricky goes straight to you.

Fills cancellations

When a slot opens, it offers it to clients who asked to come in sooner, one at a time, until the chair is filled.

Brings clients back on time

Knows each client's usual rhythm and sends a friendly "time for your next color?" before they drift, plus a warm note to regulars who've gone quiet.

Asks for reviews at the right moment

A short thank-you after a great visit, with an easy link to leave a review. More stars come from asking every happy client, every time.

How it works

Set up for you. You stay in control.

No new software for your team to learn. We do the setup and you approve how it talks.

We connect to your booking

We start with Vagaro, where J Braun runs, and add other booking systems as founding salons join.

We learn your voice and rules

Services, stylists, prices you want shared, what gets passed to a human. Your desk sounds like your salon.

You approve, then it runs

During the pilot, messages can wait for your OK before they go out. Every week you see what was booked, filled and recovered.

"We built this because we needed it. Our own chairs come first. If it doesn't work for J Braun, we won't sell it to you."

Questions

Good questions owners ask.

Does this replace my front desk staff?

No. It covers the hours and the follow-ups no one has time for: nights, weekends, early-morning cancellations and the client who's overdue. Your team still owns the in-person welcome.

Which booking systems does it work with?

We're starting with Vagaro. If you use something else, tell us on the form. Founding salons help decide what we connect to next.

Will it text my clients without my OK?

Not unless you want it to. You choose which messages need your approval, and you can pause it anytime.

Who owns my client list?

You do. We use your client information only to run your desk. We never sell it or share it with other salons.

What if a client asks something it can't answer?

It says a team member will follow up, and sends the conversation straight to you.
