Is SalonAgent an alternative to mya?

For stylist matching, yes. mya (joinmya.com) matches guests to stylists through a survey on your site. SalonAgent matches from the history and conversations you already have — no quiz to fill in — and the match happens inside the same agent that answers the phone, fills your gaps, and runs your Instagram inbox.

Can my team override a match?

Always. The match is a recommendation with visible reasoning, and your front desk keeps the final say on who sits in which chair.

Stylist Match

Matches each client to the stylist who'll delight them.

First visits are won or lost on the pairing. Stylist Match reads what a client has had done, what they've said, what they paid, and what they came back for — then reads your team the same way: who nails a balayage correction, who's fastest on a men's cut, who new clients rebook with. When a booking comes in, it recommends the pairing most likely to end in a rebook.

What it does

Learns your clients

Visit history, service mix, spend band, notes from the chair, and what they say to your agent all feed the profile.

Learns your team

Specialties, rebook rates, ticket averages, and the client types each stylist quietly excels with.

Matches at booking time

The voice, chat, and Instagram agents all book into the recommended chair — with the reason attached.

Balances the floor

Newer stylists get the clients they'll win, so the schedule fills evenly instead of everything landing on one person.

How it works

1
It builds both profiles
One side from client history and conversations, the other from how your stylists actually perform.
2
It scores the pairing
Every open slot with every available stylist gets a fit score, with the reasons written in plain English.
3
It books the best fit
The client is booked with the stylist most likely to make them a regular — and your team sees why.
