“The usual?” And you explain it all again. How much shorter. Which grade. Which shade. And you hope. Everything that worked last time lives inside one single head. On an index card in one single salon. In a photo somewhere among thousands of others. You move, your hairdresser leaves – and you start from scratch again. That ends now. HairID gives your hair a memory. And it belongs to you. YOU DECIDE “A bit shorter” means something different to everyone. 6 mm doesn’t. Set length, fade, layers and fringe on a 3D head. With the AI preview, you see the cut before you book it. YOUR SALON WRITES IT DOWN After your appointment, your salon records what was really done: photos from the front, side and back. The real measurements. The colour formula. And what must never happen again. Every visit makes it sharper. EVERY SALON READS IT Show your HairID code, and even a HairID salon you’ve never been to knows what you want before you sit down. Moving to Manchester? Your look moves with you. EVERYTHING IN ONE APP • Book in seconds: salons near you with real free times. Your look is attached to the booking automatically. • Live, not waiting: on the day, you see when it’s your turn. • AI preview: free as an example image, on your own face from Premium. • Hair Score: one photo shows how your hair is doing. Private, no salon ever sees it. Not a medical diagnosis. • Product scanner: scan a barcode and see whether a product suits your hair. • A reminder when your next cut is due. • Digital stamp card at participating salons: a free cut after six appointments. YOUR MEMORY, YOUR RULES Only a salon you book with or show your code to can see your profile. You can withdraw that access at any time. And nobody sees which salons you went to before. WITH PREMIUM • See yourself with the new cut. • Regrowth timer: when your roots will show and when to book. • Your formula history from every visit, ready to share. • Every detail of your Hair Score, unlimited product checks. • Waitlist: if someone cancels, you move up automatically at participating salons. Try Premium free for a week. Premium Plus adds even more AI and SOS booking for an instant appointment. FOR SALONS AND BARBERSHOPS A portal sends you clients and stays in between. HairID gives you the tools and then gets out of your way. • 0% commission, one fixed monthly price. Your hundredth booking costs you exactly what the first one did. • New clients feel like regulars: one scan of their code shows the formula, photos and what must never happen again. • Your booking link for your Instagram bio. It shows only you, not the shop two streets away. • Studio Mode on iPad, live queue, walk-ins in three steps. • Someone cancels? The waitlist moves up. At full price, without a single phone call. • Team calendar, revenue, portfolio, vouchers and Smart Import for your client list. • Your clients stay your clients: export on every plan. New salons get their first month free. HairID is available in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and the United Arab Emirates. Your next appointment is the first one your hair will never forget. SUBSCRIPTIONS HairID is free for customers, and booking is never limited on any plan. Premium, Premium Plus and the salon plans Starter, Team and Salon are subscriptions charged to your Apple ID. They renew automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. A free trial turns into a paid subscription unless you cancel before it ends. You can cancel at any time in your Apple ID settings. Terms of Service: https://hair-id.com/terms Terms for salons: https://hair-id.com/agb-barber?land=GB Privacy Policy: https://hair-id.com/privacy
