Be specific about treatments
Separate gel polish, acrylic extensions, removals or lash fills rather than using one broad label. Explain what is included and what needs a separate enquiry.
For salons and independent beauty providers
Create an online profile for your beauty business
Give potential clients a place to explore your nail, hair, lash or beauty services. Present your work, explain where appointments happen and make the available contact options easy to find on Eyam Discover.
A hosted profile. Your business details. One link to share.
Answer the questions clients ask before an appointment
A clear beauty profile helps someone understand whether your style, location and services suit them.
Show your own work
Choose clear, recent photos of work you performed. Ask before sharing identifiable client photos, and use the gallery allowance included in your plan.
Explain the appointment
Say whether you work from a salon, travel to clients or arrange appointments at home. Add preparation instructions and realistic service durations where useful.
Eligible accounts can claim the free-listing offer without a card. Check eligibility and the offer duration during setup. Contact options, social links and gallery limits depend on your plan. Compare listing options.

Read home-based business guidanceWhat to include in your salon or beauty listing
- Your business name and relevant beauty industry
- Treatment names, inclusions and the work you specialise in
- A price or a clear instruction to request a quote, where appropriate
- Your suburb, salon location or mobile service area
- Portfolio photos you have permission to publish
- Appointment instructions and a business contact channel available on your plan
Write a description a new client can use
Illustrative writing example — not a customer testimonial
“I offer gel manicures and nail-art appointments in [your suburb]. Tell me which treatment you need and whether you require removal of an existing set. Contact me to discuss availability, the final price and appointment details.”
Replace the brackets with your actual area and describe only treatments you provide. If travel, removals or extra designs cost more, make that clear before a client commits.
Make enquiries and appointment expectations clear
Create and complete your profile
Choose a listing option, select your industry and add your real services, portfolio and available contact details.
Confirm the service with the client
Where a service accepts booking requests, a requested time still needs your confirmation. Agree treatment details, duration and any preparation directly.
Keep your information current
Update service descriptions and photos when your offering changes. Avoid advertising appointments or services you cannot deliver.
Share the same profile link
Add your Eyam link to social bios, WhatsApp conversations and marketing materials so clients have one place to check your details.
Beauty listing questions
Can independent nail or lash professionals use a profile?
A profile can describe your own business and services, including how and where you work. Choose a suitable industry, check the current listing terms and keep any qualifications or specialist treatment claims accurate.
Does Eyam take deposits or confirm appointments for me?
This business profile presents your services and available contact or booking-request options. A booking request needs business confirmation. Agree deposits, payment and cancellation arrangements directly; do not assume your listing includes payment collection.
Can I use Instagram as well as Eyam?
Yes. You can share your Eyam profile link from your social pages. Publishing social links on the Eyam profile depends on the selected plan.
Should I create a separate listing for every treatment?
Group the services offered by the same business clearly in its profile. Avoid creating repeated business profiles merely to target different treatment names.
