1. Agreement to Terms
By accessing or using the SalonCompare website at saloncompare.co.uk(the “Site”), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service (“Terms”). If you do not agree with any part of these Terms, you must not use our Site.
2. Description of Service
SalonCompare is a price comparison and information service for hair salons in London, United Kingdom. We collect and display published treatment prices, ratings, and other information about hair salons to help you make informed decisions.
Our service is provided free of charge to users. We do not earn commission from salon bookings. We may display third-party advertising, but advertising does not influence how salons are ranked or which salons are included in our comparisons. See Section 7 for more details.
3. Price Information and Accuracy
Important Disclaimer
The prices displayed on SalonCompare are sourced from salons' own websites and are believed to be accurate at the time they were collected. However:
- Prices may change without notice
- Salons may apply additional charges based on hair length, texture, or stylist level
- Some salons may offer discounts or promotions not reflected in our data
- We display when prices were last checked, but we cannot guarantee real-time accuracy
Always confirm prices directly with the salon before booking.
We make reasonable efforts to keep our price data up to date through regular automated checks, but we are not responsible for any losses or damages arising from reliance on price information displayed on our Site.
4. Rating and Review Information
Ratings and reviews displayed on SalonCompare are sourced from third-party platforms such as Google Maps, Treatwell, and others. We do not independently verify these ratings or reviews. The ratings represent the opinions of individual customers and may not reflect your personal experience.
5. No Booking Service
SalonCompare is an information and comparison service only. We do not take bookings, process payments, or provide any salon services. When you click through to a salon's website or a booking platform, you are leaving our Site and entering into a separate relationship with that salon or platform. We are not responsible for the quality, availability, or delivery of services provided by salons listed on our Site.
6. Salon Listings
We aim to maintain accurate and up-to-date information about salons, but we cannot guarantee completeness or accuracy. Salons may:
- Close temporarily or permanently without notice
- Change their address, contact details, or opening hours
- Update their treatment menu or pricing
- Refuse service or impose additional terms and conditions
If you notice incorrect information about a salon, please contact us at hello@saloncompare.co.uk and we will investigate.
7. Advertising and Independence
SalonCompare does not earn commission from salon bookings. When you book, you deal directly with the salon or its chosen booking platform.
Display Advertising
We may display advertisements from third-party advertising networks such as Google AdSense. These ads are selected and served by the advertising network, not by SalonCompare. We do not control the content of these ads.
We do not accept payment from salons to be included in our listings or to improve their ranking.
All salons in our database are discovered through independent research and are ranked objectively by treatment price and review ratings, not by commercial relationships.
