Salon & Spa Web Design for the Twin Cities
Clients want to see your work and book a chair without picking up the phone. We build salon, spa, and barbershop sites that show off your style and let people book around the clock.

Phone-only booking costs you appointments. Someone discovers you at 10 p.m., wants to grab a Saturday slot, and you're closed — so they book the salon down the street that lets them do it online. For beauty and grooming businesses, the website's whole job is to turn that late-night scroll into a confirmed appointment.
Hammer Forge Apps is a small Minneapolis team building fast, mobile-friendly sites for salons, spas, and barbershops across the Twin Cities. We connect the online booking tool you already use, put your service menu and pricing up front, and build galleries that actually show your work — because in this business, the portfolio is the pitch.
Where Most Salons, Spas & Barbershops Sites Fall Short
If any of these sound familiar, you're losing customers you never even hear about.
Booking only by phone
Every call you miss is a booking that may not come back. Clients increasingly expect to book online whenever the urge hits, and a phone-only salon quietly loses them to one that takes appointments 24/7.
Your gallery is years out of date
Your work has evolved, but your website still shows cuts and color from three years ago. An outdated or empty gallery makes people wonder whether you're even still in business — let alone current on trends.
No service menu or pricing
When clients can't see what you offer or roughly what it costs, they hesitate to reach out. A clear service menu sets expectations and filters in the clients who want exactly what you do.
It doesn't work on a phone
Beauty and grooming searches happen almost entirely on phones. A site that's hard to read or tap on a small screen sends a potential regular straight to a competitor whose site just works.
What We Build In
The features that actually move the needle for a salon.
Online booking integration (Advanced)
On the Advanced tier we connect Vagaro, Booksy, Square, or your booking system so clients can see openings and lock in an appointment right from your site, day or night.
Service menu & pricing
A clear, organized list of your services with pricing or starting prices, so clients know exactly what you offer before they book and arrive with the right expectations.
Stylist & staff bios
Profiles for your stylists, barbers, or estheticians with photos and specialties. Clients love picking their person, and bios build the trust that turns a first visit into a regular.
Photo gallery
A polished gallery of your cuts, color, nails, or treatments, optimized to load fast and look sharp. This is your portfolio, and it's often what closes the booking.
Reviews on display
We surface your Google or other reviews on the site so social proof is right there when someone's deciding. Real client feedback does a lot of the convincing for you.
Click-to-call
A tap-to-dial button for clients who'd rather speak to someone about a consultation, a wedding party, or a specialty service. Easy to find on every page.
Basic puts your service menu, pricing, stylist bios, gallery, and click-to-call online with a clean mobile site starting at $399 — great if you book through DMs or by phone. Advanced integrates real online booking so clients self-schedule against your live availability. Custom covers multi-location spas, membership or package systems, and anything more involved.

Salons, Spas & Barbershops Web Design FAQs
Can clients book appointments on my site?
Yes, on the Advanced tier. We connect the booking system you already use — Vagaro, Booksy, Square, and similar — so clients see your real availability and book without calling. If you're not ready for that, a Basic site still shows services, pricing, and a call button, and you can add booking later.
Do you work with my existing booking software?
In most cases, yes. We integrate the popular salon and spa platforms so you keep your calendar, client records, and workflow exactly as they are — the website just becomes a clean front door to it. Tell us what you use and we'll confirm it works before we start building.
Can I update my gallery and prices myself?
Yes. We build the site so you can refresh your gallery with new work and adjust your service menu and pricing without code. Keeping recent photos up matters a lot in this business, so we make it easy. If you'd rather we handle updates, that's an option too.
How much does a salon website cost?
Basic professional sites start at $399 and include your service menu, pricing, stylist bios, a gallery, and click-to-call on a mobile-friendly design. Adding live online booking moves you to the Advanced tier. Multi-location or membership builds are quoted as Custom. We give you a firm price up front.
Will it look good on phones?
Yes — we build mobile-first because nearly all salon and spa searches happen on phones. Your gallery, service menu, booking button, and bios will all be easy to read and tap on a small screen, and the site loads fast so a potential client never gives up and bounces to a competitor.
