Custom builds

Tools built for your salon, not every salon.

I’m an avid builder of bespoke tools for salon businesses. I run Iron + Ivy and Revolver on things I’ve built myself, for the jobs no off-the-shelf software quite covers. If there’s a job in your business that eats your time or hides your numbers, there’s a good chance it can be built around the way you work.

Some ideas

A few of the things I build.

Reporting

Kitomba and Timely reporting dashboards

Your booking system holds the answers, buried in exports. A dashboard that pulls it into one place: sales, rebooking, average spend and each stylist’s numbers, laid out the way you actually read them.

Client experience

A guest concierge

A QR code at each chair opens your salon’s own page. The client picks a drink and ticks any requests, and it texts your front desk from their phone. No waving anyone down mid-colour, and every guest gets looked after.

Team

Wage dashboards

Wages against takings, week by week, by person. See what each stylist costs and brings in, and spot a problem before it shows up in the bank account.

How it works

Start with a conversation.

  • Tell me the job, how you do it now, and the systems you use
  • I come back with what I’d build, what it needs from you, and what it costs
  • I build it around your business and hand it over, ready to use
