Loved by salon owners

What pilot salons are saying.

"

I cut my no-shows in half the first month. Deposits just work — clients don't even blink.

— Danielle, owner of Blush Studio, Manchester

"

Switched from Fresha and immediately stopped paying transaction fees on every single booking. Pays for itself.

— Marcus, owner of Fade & Co, Birmingham

"

Finally something built for actual UK salons. The staff app alone saves my receptionist two hours a day.

— Priya, owner of The Edit Salon, London

Questions, answered

Frequently asked.

How do deposits reduce no-shows?

When a client pays a deposit at booking, they have real skin in the game. Salons using Zarlo report up to 80% fewer no-shows. You set the amount — fixed or percentage — and Stripe handles collection automatically. If you cancel, we auto-refund.

How much does Zarlo cost?

£90/mo for Solo, £125/mo for Team, £160/mo for Scale. No setup fee, no per-booking commission, no card-on-file charges. Cancel any time.

Is there a free trial?

Yes — 14 days, no card required. You can take real bookings during the trial.

Do you charge commission per booking?

Never. Unlike marketplaces (Treatwell, Fresha), we don't take a slice of your takings. Your money goes straight to your Stripe account next day.

What does the AI actually do?

Zarlo's AI monitors booking patterns and automatically nudges clients who are due back for their next appointment. It also surfaces upsell suggestions based on client history. It works in the background — no setup required.

Can I import my clients from another system?

Yes. CSV import for clients, services, and historic appointments. We'll help you migrate from Fresha, Treatwell, Booksy or a spreadsheet.

Will my staff need their own logins?

Yes — each stylist gets a free login to the Staff App so they can view their schedule, mark appointments done, and request time off.

Is my client data safe?

Encrypted at rest and in transit, hosted in the EU, GDPR-compliant. You own your data and can export or delete anything, any time.

What if I need help?

Email hello@zarlo.co — a human replies, usually within a couple of hours on weekdays. Team and Scale plans include a dedicated onboarding call.

About Zarlo

Built for salons. By people who get it.

Zarlo started with a simple frustration: the tools that UK salons rely on either skim 20% off every booking, hold your money for a month, or hand your clients to a marketplace that emails them with somebody else's discount.

We thought there was a better way — software you pay a flat fee for, that puts you back in control of your bookings, your money, and your customer relationships. Built specifically for the way UK salons work: VAT, GBP, UK card flows, UK-style commission structures, and weekend opening hours.

Everything Zarlo does is in service of one thing: keep more of your money in your till and more of your time at the chair.

What we believe

  • Your clients are yours. Not the marketplace's. Not ours. Yours.
  • Software should be invisible. If it takes more than 10 minutes to learn, we built it wrong.
  • One flat price. No per-booking nibbles, no per-text gotchas, no per-staff escalation.
  • Real humans reply. Email hello@zarlo.co and get a response within a few hours, not a chatbot.
