Reply to reviews
Read your clients' reviews under Marketing › Reviews and reply publicly or to the client only, as the business or in your own name.
A reply shows that you listen, especially with a critical review. You read and answer all reviews of your locations under Marketing › Reviews.
Find reviews
- At the top you see how many reviews you have and how they are spread over the stars. Click a number of stars to see only those reviews.
- Not answered yet shows which reviews are still waiting for a reply.
- If you have several locations or team members, filter with All locations and All team members.
- Clear filters shows everything again.
Each review shows the team member and the location of the visit.
Write a reply
- Go to Marketing in the menu and choose Reviews.
- Click Reply on the review.
- Write your reply under Your reply. You can use up to 2000 characters.
- Under Reply as, choose As the business or As myself.
- Under Visibility, choose Public on your booking page or Customer only.
- Click Save.
Public or for the client only
- Public on your booking page: anyone viewing your salon page sees your reply under the review.
- Customer only: nothing goes online. The client reads your reply in the e-mail, or with an account on Saloon.nl under My reviews. In Saloon it carries the label Customer only.
Either way, the client gets your reply by e-mail, with the Reply to a review message. At the bottom of the window you see whether that e-mail will go. It does not go if you disabled that message or if the client does not want e-mails from you.
Edit or delete a reply
Click Edit reply on the review to change your text, your name or the visibility. Delete reply removes your reply; after you confirm, it disappears from your booking page and the review itself stays. A review has one reply from the salon.
You need the permission Can respond to reviews for this. You set it under Settings › Team members › Permission roles.
Frequently asked questions
Can I delete or hide a review?
No. Only the client can change or delete their review. That way visitors can trust the stars.

No, you can always reply, also to an older review.
Can I reply to a review the client deleted?
No. A deleted review is no longer on your page and cannot get a reply.
