About Salon Stack Guide

Salon Stack Guide is a small independent site that helps salon owners and stylists pick booking and payment software by total cost and fit, not by ad spend.

We write for small salon owners, barbers and suite renters. Every guide starts from the questions owners actually ask before they pay for software: what does it really cost at my size, what do I get on the cheaper plans, and what will make me switch in a year.

We are independent. No vendor pays to be listed or to be ranked higher. Some of the tools we cover run affiliate programs, and when that applies we say so on the page. Read how we evaluate and our affiliate disclosure for the details.
