The problem

SA salon owners respond to 50+ WhatsApp messages daily to confirm appointments. Double-bookings, no-shows, and load shedding chaos destroy revenue. Chair rental models have no management tools.

Our answer

Glow Hub puts every chair, every client, and every product in a single screen — with WhatsApp booking that actually works during load shedding.

Built for South Africa

50,000–100,000+ salons and barbers in SA. Hair salons are a top 6 business type in townships (22M+ people). The chair rental revolution is reshaping the industry. Load shedding costs salons a third of pre-outage income.
