Thirty years of clients, one at a time. Now bookable online.

Salone Debora has cut hair in Montecchio Maggiore since 1993 — a classic Italian salon, one client at a time, no gimmicks. Appointments lived in a paper book and a thread of WhatsApp messages, with no website and no single place to see the day.

02 — The problem

What needed fixing.

The site had to do two jobs at once. Carry the quiet confidence of thirty years at the chair — no "excellence," no marketing gloss. And replace the manual booking entirely, in a way the owner — who isn't technical, and shouldn't have to be — could run on her own.

03 — The approach

How we built it.

  1. 01

    A custom booking system, not a plugin

    Built on Next.js and Supabase rather than a third-party booking SaaS — the salon owns it outright, pays no monthly fee, and the experience fits the brand instead of the reverse.

  2. 02

    The admin is an app on her phone

    Clients request a slot from the site; she confirms and runs the whole day — today's agenda, the week, closures, walk-ins — from an app installed on her iPhone. The complexity stays under the surface; she just sees her day.

  3. 03

    Editorial, not template

    Fraunces italic, a petrol-and-cream palette with a mustard accent, short honest copy — it reads like a place trusted for thirty years, not a site builder.

04 — The build

The build, up close.

01The public site — built around the salon, not a template.
02The booking flow: a slot requested in a few taps.
03The admin, installed on her iPhone — the day at a glance.
05 — Outcome

How it landed.

A presence that matches the craft, and one screen — her phone — to run bookings from. No paper book, no WhatsApp tag. The tech underneath stays invisible to her, which is exactly the point. Built fully accessible and fast, and structured to be found by people searching in Montecchio Maggiore.
