The brief

Sophisticated, secure, mobile-first.

The brief carried an unusual constraint: the previous website had been compromised with injected malicious code, so security was non-negotiable. On top of that, the salon needed a full, visual service catalogue, a staff-friendly WordPress back end, a seamless booking integration and strong local SEO.

We took a UX-driven, mobile-first approach — a stylish, sleek design that puts the salon’s work front and centre, on a hardened, easily managed platform.

The challenge: the previous website had been compromised with injected malicious code, so security came first — alongside a full, visual service catalogue, a staff-friendly WordPress back end, a booking integration and strong local SEO.
