### "Fantastic system and great pricing"

October 10, 2024

5.0

It’s been wonderful! Transfer was smooth! Great customer service!

Pros

I love that it is geared specifically towards our industry

Cons

That there isn’t a way for clients to add their credit card when I schedule them (like a link they have to complete before the appointment time is confirmed) and a text system to remind them their appointment starts in 15mins and they can check in. Then stylist can say they are ready for the client via text too

Because it’s tailored specifically for salons

It was too pricey and more for larger salons not individuals! However I LOVED it but it cost too much.

Pros

Where to start? My business is a before and after GG, my time management. client satisfaction, website, scheduling and payment processing are always on point thanks to this app. I recommend GG 100% if you want to step up your game and also get value for your money.

Cons

Not much options for services descriptions, it will be great to add pics of products to recommend with booked service. Also, mail campaigns are very limited

### "There are better options for your business"

November 20, 2025

3.0

My overall experience with GlossGenius is that for a lower-cost system, it's okay. They are continuously raising the prices and making different tiers, which is normal, but they are trying to add too much too quickly. The system cannot keep up with it. They do not follow up with their members to see what they like and what they don't like. The lower cost was no longer worth the headache that GlossGenius created for my business.

Pros

What I liked most about GlossGenius is that when I first started using it, it was really aesthetically pleasing. It was one of the lower-cost options, and at that point it was important to me that it was extremely affordable.

Cons

What I didn't like about GlossGenius is that the system was always "down". There were a lot of times that I couldn’t get in to see what clients I had for the day, or I couldn’t find their color formula because I couldn’t even log into the system. Every time they make an update, it seems to throw everything off. They were constantly changing the aesthetics of it.

Great! I enjoy learning on th app and discovering new things. I would like to be able to edit the flyers in the app.

Pros

I love the easibilty of the website. Not only for me but my clients. I love the text messaging and the goals. I love everything even the gift cards!

Cons

I don’t like that I can post the gift cards, that I can only load one pic at a time and that I can’t upload videos. I’m still learning the app though.

February 20, 2026

I really love using GlossGenius for my business it's like having an assistant that not only helps with clients reminders but to keep in file every service, formula and products they purchase. It really has made my job so much easier.

Pros

Appointment Management, Payment Processing, Security, Appointment Sccheduling, Client Mnagement, Value for Money, and Learning Curve,

Cons

Not being able to save more than 1 card payment since clients are always changing card payment. Not having holidays in the calender.

### "Be a Boss with Gloss"

February 20, 2026

5.0

Overall, I am really enjoying Gloss. I love the convenience of the automated text. I also love that I am able to customize my features. It is very easy to navigate.

Pros

For me, I love that GlossGenius does the automated notifications for myself and for my clients. I have a hard time keeping up with that myself, so I appreciate that Gloss does it for me.

Cons

I wish there were more color options for my service items. There isn’t an option available for booking when room sharing. If there were an option for select services to allow for double booking(ie- if my roommate has a scheduled lash appointment , I can schedule hair appts during that time but my clients can not schedule lashes while she is lashing, that would be amazing.

### "The Best Booking App"

February 20, 2026

I’m pleased 1000% I really love everything about Glossgenius. It’s very much needed and easy to use along with setting up your favorites.

Pros

Being able to allow my clients to book out as far as I like. I’m not always available to recieve calls or answer text messages.

Cons

Not being able to get money instantly. Honestly that’s not even a problem but if I have to really goose it would be the fees attached.

### "Who’s Better for My Business Than Gloss Genius? No One!"

July 2, 2025

5.0

My overall experience with Gloss Genius has been nothing short of amazing. The platform is incredibly user-friendly and packed with features that make running my business so much easier. From scheduling and client management to payments and reporting, there’s truly nothing this software can’t do. I especially love that it integrates Google reviews, which helps boost my online presence, and offers Buy Now, Pay Later options for clients, making my services more accessible. It’s an all-in-one solution that has completely streamlined my workflow, and I couldn’t be happier with it.

Pros

What I absolutely love about this software is how simple it is for my clients to book! They don’t have to download an app or set up a profile—just log in, book, and they’re good to go. It’s super convenient, fast, and totally user-friendly!

Cons

Before Gloss Genius, I didn’t have a way to track my time or pay myself efficiently—but now I do, and I absolutely love it! Their new features have made managing my business so much easier.

I love it. It helps me keep everything organized and together in one place. I love that I can set goals, keep up with product and inventory, easily change things, communicate with clients, and the analytics and reports are life savers

Pros

That it’s so user friendly and affordable. All payments and processing are convenient and secure. Other than last fall I’ve had no bugs, issues, or crashes. Scheduling is a breeze and online booking is very simple for clients to navigate.

Cons

That I can’t create add on’s without adding time to services. At least not easily. IE if I want to charge for extra length I have to manually add it during checkout as opposed to adding it under services

Considering the several different booking systems I've used over my career, this has been by far the easiest to work with!

Pros

Every client that uses it says it's extremely easy to use when booking their appointments. Not one of them has had an issue when booking appointments online.

Cons

There were some reports that I wish are available for statistics on services, such as how many of what service I did within a specific amount of time.

Happy with them overall. Will continue working with you guys . Super simple to put together your website .

Pros

I love that it gives many updates on upcoming appointments. Also that it send them a link to leave a review . Super greatful for the glossgenius loans and how it pulls from each transaction. Helps a lot if needed . My clients always express how easy it is to book online.

Cons

How the updates are in the middle of our business days . When we can’t see our clients and have to use another form of payment. That’s not calculated into our total earnings .

Over all it’s a great experience. Adding another security for no shows and disputes would be make this experience amazing.

Pros

I absolutely love the layout, colors, review option, honestly everything! My clients absolutely love this app and say it makes their booking experience so easy.

Cons

Sometimes clients can book appointments without credit cards. The cards that they add don’t have funds.

Amazing! Literally love it so much. This app has changed my experience as a salon owner and I’m super happy

Pros

Literally everything! But if u had to pick one I really love the ability to customize my client profiles

Cons

Nothing really. Everything is so user friendly and customizable. I think the only thing I would change is add in a way to send an invoice for pre booked services

I have had a great experience with glass. It’s been very dependable and I love how they have honored my price for being a customer for so long.

Pros

The features include included in my plans price ! I went on maternity leave and stopped paying my plan and using the app and thankfully \[sensitive content hidden\] was able to honor my previous plan in price that really shows they care about their customers!

Cons

Nothing really I could think of. I like everything about the app. Nothing comes up to mind that I like least about the app.

My business looks more professional with Gloss. Gives me a relief, a big relief when it comes to make appointments.

Pros

It saves me time and money. Helps me bring custumers with the reviews area and it is so easy to check out.

Cons

Can't sell retail products online. For me will be great if this could be added. That will make it a full experience.
