## TL;DR

Tuned for hair salons, barbers, and beauty. The draft references the service and, where the reviewer named a stylist, either passes praise on or moves the complaint offline without naming the stylist.

## Overview

Beauty reviews are personal. This preset defaults to a warm, first-person voice from an owner or senior stylist and follows the rule that praise is public and criticism is private.

## Quick tips

- Pass praise for a named stylist along in the public reply.
- Never name-defend a stylist in a critical reply.
- Offer free adjustments within a 7-day window for any colour or cut complaint.

## Example replies

### 5-star, stylist named

> _Review:_ Priya nailed the balayage.

> _Reply:_ Thanks Ellie — Priya's on holiday next week and will see this when she's back. Book direct with her for October.

### Colour off-reference

> _Review:_ Colour was nothing like the photo I showed.

> _Reply:_ Hi Nadia — a colour off-reference is a free adjustment for any client within 7 days. Reply here or call and I'll book you with our senior colourist. — Ellie

### Long wait

> _Review:_ Booked 2pm, seen at 2:40.

> _Reply:_ Hi Priya — 40 minutes past your booking isn't the appointment you booked. Your next cut is on us — book direct with me. — Sam

## FAQ

### Should I name the stylist in a critical reply?

No. Even a positive-sounding defence names them publicly against a customer complaint. Move it offline first, resolve privately.

### How do I handle a review about a stylist who's left?

Acknowledge, note that the stylist is no longer with the salon if the reviewer might return, and offer a booking with a current team member.
