Hair Salon Case Study

Hair Salon Case Study: Beauty Junkie NY

Challenge

Beauty Junkie NY is a well-established NYC hair and beauty salon with strong in-person reputation, but their online presence did not reflect the quality of their work.

Specifically:

  • The website lacked clear calls to action and did not guide visitors to book

  • Branding felt inconsistent with a premium salon experience

  • Local SEO was weak, making it hard for new clients to find them on Google

  • Their Google Business Profile was underutilized and not driving consistent leads

In a competitive NYC market, this meant lost visibility and missed bookings.


 

Strategy

The goal was not just a “prettier website.”
The goal was visibility + conversions, powered by strong local SEO.

We focused on three pillars:

  1. Website built to convert

  2. Google Business Profile built to rank

  3. Local SEO built to win fast

Solution

Website Redesign & Conversion Structure

  • Rebuilt the website to reflect a high-end salon brand

  • Added strong, clear CTAs for booking and inquiries

  • Simplified navigation so users can find services quickly

  • Optimized for mobile, where most salon searches happen

The site was structured to answer one key question fast:
“Can I trust this salon, and how do I book right now?”

Local SEO Implementation

  • Optimized core service pages around high-intent local keywords

  • Aligned website content with Google Business Profile services

  • Improved internal linking and on-page SEO fundamentals

  • Focused on search intent, not keyword stuffing

This allowed Google to clearly understand:

  • What services the salon offers

  • Who they serve

  • Where they are located

Google My Business Optimization

      • Fully optimized the Google Business Profile with correct categories and services

      • Improved business description and visual content

      • Ensured NAP consistency and accurate location data

      • Strengthened trust signals that impact map and organic results

Results

In under 2 months, Beauty Junkie NY achieved:

Page one rankings for their main local keyword
✅ Increased organic traffic from Google Search and Maps
✅ More inbound calls and booking inquiries
✅ A website that actively converts instead of just existing
✅ A cohesive online presence aligned with a premium NYC salon

Most importantly, their digital presence now supports growth instead of holding it back.

Why this worked

This was not about tricks or shortcuts.

The results came from:

  • Proper website structure

  • Clean, intentional local SEO

  • Alignment between website and Google Business Profile

  • A focus on how real people search for salons in NYC

Beauty Junkie NY already had the talent and reputation.

What they needed was visibility and structure online.

By combining a conversion-focused website with intentional local SEO, we helped them reach page one quickly and build a foundation that continues to bring in clients organically.

That’s how local SEO should work when it’s done right.
