Glamease started from conversations with working beauty pros and student entrepreneurs who were tired of juggling DMs, deposits, and expensive software. The goal is simple: give independents a professional booking stack without salon-enterprise pricing.
At $9.99/month, software stops competing with rent, products, and marketing. That matters most when you are just starting out.
Clients book from a clean mobile experience with photos, pricing, and deposits. You look established from your first listing.
Same tools at 5 bookings or 50. No upgrade tier when your calendar fills up and no commission on your busiest months.
Build your profile, list services, and start taking bookings before you pay anything.
