For beauty, lash, brow & nail salons

The CRM for beauty salons that answers every DM

New clients message you on Instagram, WhatsApp and your website, often while you’re mid-treatment. Lidora is a CRM for beauty salons that replies in seconds, books new clients in with patch test reminders and follows up bridal and package enquiries, so fewer potential clients slip away.

Lidora on a phone: a first-time lash enquiry answered on WhatsApp with a booking link

In short

Lidora is a CRM for beauty salons in the UK. It catches new-client enquiries from Instagram and Facebook lead ads, your website and WhatsApp, replies in seconds, lets clients book online with confirmations and reminders, and follows up bridal and package enquiries. It works alongside your salon booking app and costs from £39 a month, with a 7-day free trial.

What to look for in a CRM for beauty salons

  • Instant replies to DMs and ads, because new clients book with whoever answers first.
  • WhatsApp, the way your clients already like to talk.
  • Patch tests and allergies noted on the enquiry before the first appointment.
  • Bridal and event enquiries tracked with dates and prices, and followed up.
  • Online booking with reminders for consultations and first visits.
  • It works with your booking app, so you don’t have to change how regulars book.

Sound familiar?

Busy chairs, missed new clients

Your regulars rebook themselves. It’s the new clients, asking questions in DMs, who need a fast, friendly answer.

DMs you can't answer mid-treatment

By the time you've finished a full set, the enquiry has booked elsewhere.

Bridal enquiries that drift

A bride asks for prices for her and three bridesmaids, then never hears back.

Forgotten patch tests

First-time clients arrive without a patch test, and the appointment can't go ahead.

Paying for ads that don't book

Instagram lead ads bring names and numbers, but nobody follows them up.

Every new client, one list

Lashes, brows, nails and bridal, all in one place

New enquiries from Instagram and Facebook lead ads (Growth and Pro), your website and booking forms appear in one list. Each moves from new enquiry to price sent and booked in, so you can see who still needs a reply.

Lidora follow-ups: messages sent automatically after someone enquires

Instant replies

A friendly reply in seconds

The moment someone enquires, Lidora sends a warm WhatsApp, text or email in your salon’s name, with your booking link and patch test info if it’s their first time. Follow-ups carry on gently until they reply.

Online booking

New clients book their first visit online

Share your Lidora booking link for consultations, patch tests or first appointments. Clients get a confirmation and a reminder, and can move their own booking.

FAQ

Questions salon owners ask

What is the best CRM for beauty salons?

For a beauty salon, a CRM is most useful for new clients: answering DMs and ad enquiries fast, booking first visits and following up bridal or package enquiries. Lidora does that and works alongside your booking app, from £39 a month.

Do I still need my salon booking app?

Probably, yes. Lidora isn't a full salon diary with payments and rotas. Use it to win new clients and keep your booking app for regulars and payments.

Does Lidora work with Instagram?

Yes. On Growth and Pro, Instagram and Facebook lead ads come straight into Lidora and get an instant reply. For Instagram DMs, add a link to your Lidora booking form or WhatsApp in your bio and replies.

Can Lidora remind clients about patch tests?

Yes. Your first message can include patch test details, the enquiry form records whether it's done, and booking reminders go out the day before.

Is it good for bridal makeup and hair?

Yes. Record the wedding date, the number of people and the price, and follow up until the bride confirms.

How much does it cost?

Starter is £39 a month, Growth £79 and Pro £159, for the whole salon. No setup fee, no contract, and a 7-day free trial without a card. Prices exclude VAT.

Can you build my website and do my SEO as well?

Yes. Our team at NexGen Rank offers one complete package for beauty salons: a website, full local SEO, your Google Business Profile and Lidora, all set up for you. See what's included or book a free call.
