Hear Hazel answer a Austin salon call

This line belongs to Sample Hair Studio of Austin, a sample salon we made up so you can hear Hazel work. Its prices are examples. On your line, Hazel uses your own website, prices and calendar.

Things to try

  • "Can I book a cut and color Saturday?"
  • "How much is balayage?"
  • "Is Maria available next week?"

The browser demo uses your device's built-in voice; real calls use a premium phone voice.

Setup is self-serve and takes about ten minutes. From $99/month; extra minutes $0.35, capped; 7-day refund. See pricing.

Does it work with my booking app?

It books through Calendly or any calendar with a private link today. Square, Vagaro and Boulevard bookings become messages for now.

Can it say different prices per stylist?

Yes, if you list them that way.

Can it book a specific stylist?

Yes, if the stylist's schedule is in your calendar or booking link. Otherwise it takes the request and you confirm.

What about color corrections or long services?

It asks what the client wants done and books a consultation or the right length of slot from your service list.

Can calls be recorded in Texas?

Texas is a one-party consent state, so a participant can record a call. Callers often phone from other states, though, so Hazel still says "this call may be recorded" at the start of every call, the safe pattern for all-party states like California and Florida. You can turn recording off in Settings.

Will it book in Austin time?

Yes. Your line runs on Central Time, so every slot Hazel offers and every summary you get is in local Austin time. It answers around the clock, including the 118 hours a week a typical salon is closed.

Every call answered at your Austin salon.
