Home Cut — the chair comes to you.
Salon economics force pros to pay rent for a chair they cannot fill all day, while clients spend an hour of travel and waiting for a 30-minute service. Home Cut deletes both sides of that waste.
The gap
Independent barbers and stylists lose 30-50% of gross to chair rent and idle hours with no way to monetise gaps.
The insight
Demand is highly predictable by household and season. Predictable demand plus routing means a mobile pro can out-earn a chair.
The wedge
Families, shift workers and seniors — clients for whom travel, not price, is the real barrier.
Strategy
Development roadmap
Phase 1 — Verified pro pool
Recruit 40-60 licensed barbers and stylists in one metro. Identity, licence and insurance verification up front — trust is the entire product in someone's home.
Phase 2 — Style matching
AI matches client to pro on style history, hair type, photo references and language preference — not just distance. Match quality is the retention lever.
Phase 3 — Route-aware scheduling
Cluster appointments by neighbourhood and time block so a pro does 5-6 quality visits a day instead of 3 with dead travel between them.
Phase 4 — Adjacent care
Extend the same trusted-visit rail to seniors' grooming, mobility-limited clients and family blocks — the segments salons structurally underserve.
