FOR SALONS AND BARBERSHOPS

An AI Receptionist for Salons and Barbershops

Awava sets up an AI receptionist that answers your salon’s phone and Instagram messages while you’re with a client, books appointments by your rules and answers questions about services, hours and the prices you choose to share, plus a website built so people searching for a salon nearby find you. The AI Receptionist is included in AI Pro ($1,997 setup plus $397 a month), or $97 a month added to the Website or Core plan.

Or call (978) 630-7976 right now: an AI answers. That’s the demo.

WHAT IT COSTS YOU

You can’t answer the phone with scissors in your hand.

The phone rings and the DMs pile up while you’re with a client, and a new client who can’t book on the first try books somewhere else. No-shows and clients who forget to rebook leave chairs empty that were easy to fill.

WHERE CHAIRS SIT EMPTY

  • Calls that ring out during appointments.
  • Instagram messages asking for availability at night.
  • No-shows and last-minute cancellations.
  • Regulars who are overdue for their next visit.
WHAT AI DOES FOR YOU

Six jobs an AI employee can take off your plate.

Each one is set up for you and runs on its own. You see the booked work and a short summary, not another app to check.
