Frequently Asked Questions

How does the AI receptionist for hairdressers work?

Our AI virtual receptionist answers every call to your hair salon 24/7, books appointments, answers common questions and captures clients details — then sends everything straight to you. It sounds natural and professional, so your clients get a great experience around the clock.

Will my callers know it's an AI?

Rarely. With a warm, natural voice it answers enquiries courteously and books clients into the chair just like a seasoned salon receptionist. It's powered by VirtualAssistant.com.au and managed right here in Australia.

How much does it cost?

We keep it flexible with no lock-in contract. Start with a free trial to see how it books your salon's clients before you commit, and you can cancel any time.

How quickly can I get set up?

Most hair salons are up and running within 24 hours. We configure your assistant, connect your booking preferences and you're ready to stop missing calls.

What happens after hours or when I'm busy?

That's exactly when it shines. Every after-hours, weekend or missed call is answered and booked instead of going to voicemail — so your hair salon never loses a client to a competitor again.

Can the AI receptionist book appointments into my calendar?

Absolutely. It takes down the client's details and the appointment time they'd like, then drops the booking straight into your diary — so your column fills up without you ever putting down the scissors.

Does it work with my existing phone number?

It does — your current salon number simply diverts to the AI receptionist whenever the team can't get to the phone, so clients keep calling the number they know and there's nothing new to promote.

What makes this better than a standard answering machine or voicemail?

Voicemail loses business — most callers hang up and ring a competitor. The AI receptionist actually has a conversation, answers questions and books the client in, 24/7, so your hair salon captures every opportunity.
