Why we built FindMy.beauty

It started with one search for a room to rent. Here is what we are building, who it is for, and how we make money.

The problem we kept running into

Ellena was looking for a room to rent for her beauty business near home. The space existed, but it was spread across social posts, word of mouth and cards in salon windows. There was nowhere to see it all in one place.

At the same time, the salon owners we spoke to had chairs and rooms sitting empty and no simple way to let the right people know.

What we built

FindMy.beauty is one place to list and find salon chairs and rooms. Renters search by location, see day, week and month prices, and message the salon directly. They don't need an account to get in touch.

How we make money

Browsing and enquiring is free. Salon owners pay a monthly subscription to keep their listings live, after a free trial. We don't take a cut of your rent or sit in the middle of your arrangement.

That keeps our interests simple: we do well when hosts find good renters and stay with us.

What comes next

We are adding salons across the UK and shaping the product around what hosts tell us. If there is something you would like to see, email us. We read every message.
