AI receptionist for estheticians
AI receptionist for facial and skincare studios
At most facial studios the esthetician has gloves on and a client on the table, so the phone rings into an empty room. An AI receptionist answers your studio's calls 24/7 in English, Spanish, German, French and Italian, gives your approved answers about facials, skin care, brows, lashes and waxing, and books the visit in Google Calendar or the booking system you already use, if it has an API.
One-time implementation starting at $999 + monthly subscription starting at $399
Callers are told they are talking to an AI assistant. It is never presented as a person.
How calls work at a facial studio
A facial menu is a list of lengths: a 60-minute signature facial, a 75-minute treatment facial, a 90-minute facial with add-ons, and a 20-minute brow wax in between. The booking has to hold the esthetician's whole time, setup included, and some add-ons only fit after a longer service.
First visits are different. A new client usually needs a longer appointment and a short skin consultation before the facial, while a returning client often books the same service on the same weekday every four to six weeks. Many studios sell facials as a series and want the next one on the calendar before the client leaves.
Callers ask about their skin too: whether a facial suits their skin type, what to do about a breakout, whether they can come in while using a prescription product. Those questions are for the esthetician to answer in person, not for whoever picks up the phone.
What the AI receptionist does for a facial studio
Set up with your service menu and your studio's rules, it can:
- Answer approved questions about facials, skin care, brows, lashes and waxing
- Ask for the service, first visit or returning, and an esthetician preference
- Book, reschedule and cancel, including the next facial in a series
- Route skin and health questions to the esthetician
The AI never gives medical, skin-diagnosis or health advice. It books non-medical services, not medical treatments.
When the AI receptionist answers for your studio
Your hands are busy for an hour or more at a time. Choose when it picks up:
- 24/7, for clients who book a facial at night
- During every appointment, when you work on your own
- Outside studio hours and on your days off
- Before weddings and holiday parties, when everyone wants a facial the week of the event
What a facial studio should set up first
Every service with its real length
List each facial, skin care treatment, brow, lash and waxing service with the time it really takes, setup and add-ons included, so a 90-minute facial never lands in a 60-minute gap.
First visit or returning client
Decide how long a first visit takes and whether new clients start with a consultation or a specific facial. The AI receptionist asks every caller whether they have been in before and books the right length.
The questions that are yours
Write down the topics the AI never answers, such as whether a service suits a skin type or condition, the products a client is using, a reaction after a visit or anything that sounds like a contraindication. It routes those calls to the esthetician.
Series and rebooking
If you sell facials in a series, decide how far ahead the next visit should be booked. When a client calls to rebook, it offers times in your calendar around that interval.
Brows, lashes and waxing
Short services fill the gaps between facials. Mark which ones can be booked back to back and which need a break after them, such as a lash lift that runs long.
Deposits and late policies
If you hold a facial with a deposit or charge for late cancellations, that stays in your booking system and your policy. The AI receptionist books the appointment; it does not take payments.
What the AI receptionist asks a facial or skincare client
It asks for booking details and preferences, not skin or health history:
- The client's name and phone number
- The service: a facial, a skin care treatment, brows, lashes or waxing
- Whether it is their first facial with you or they are a returning client
- An esthetician preference, if more than one works at the studio
- Preferences for the visit, such as a fragrance-free room or a quiet session
- Whether the visit is part of a series of facials
- The days and times that suit them
Skin history, products and consent forms stay with your own intake form and your esthetician. Each conversation produces a structured intake summary. We set up the questions with you.
What happens when someone calls your facial studio
The call is answered while you work
The AI receptionist answers in English, Spanish, German, French or Italian and tells the caller it is an AI assistant, so you don't step away from a client to pick up.
It works out the service
Which facial or treatment, first visit or returning client, and whether the caller wants a particular esthetician.
It books, moves or cancels the visit
It finds a slot long enough for that service in Google Calendar or your booking system, if it has an API. Clients can reschedule or cancel by phone, and a series client can book the next facial in the same call.
It transfers skin questions
It transfers a question about a skin condition, a product or a reaction to the esthetician, or notes it for a callback. The AI never gives medical, skin-diagnosis or health advice.
You get the daily summary
At the end of the business day: calls handled, new clients and the services they asked about, visits booked, tomorrow's schedule, changes and cancellations, and the callers waiting to hear back from you.
Works with Google Calendar and your facial studio's booking software
If your studio books in Google Calendar, or in booking software that has an API, we connect the AI receptionist to it, so facials and add-ons land in the schedule you already work from.
Connecting Google Calendar, or a booking system that has an API, is included. More complex integrations are quoted separately. Tell us which booking software your studio uses on the strategy call.
For facial studios, skincare studios and estheticians
Independent estheticians, facial bars and skincare studios, and brow, lash and waxing studios that work by appointment. It is meant for non-medical studios and does not book injectables, lasers or other medical treatments. If clients call you to book a facial, it is for you.

Facial studio AI receptionist FAQ
Will it diagnose a skin concern or recommend a facial for it?
No. The AI never gives medical, skin-diagnosis or health advice. Choosing a service for someone's skin is the esthetician's call. Questions about skin conditions, products, reactions or contraindications are routed to your esthetician.
Can it book the next facial in a series?
Yes. It can book the next visit in a series when the client calls, in Google Calendar or a booking system that has an API, at the interval your studio sets.
Can it fit brows, lashes and waxing between facials?
Yes, as long as each service exists in your calendar with its real length. It books the short services into the gaps your schedule has open.
Does it ask first-time clients anything different?
Yes. It asks whether this is their first visit, so a new client gets the longer appointment or the consultation your studio starts with. Skin history stays with your own intake form.
Can a client move or cancel a facial by phone?
Yes. It can reschedule or cancel the appointment when the client calls. Deposits and late-cancellation fees stay with your studio's policy.
Does it work with my facial studio's booking software?
If your studio books in Google Calendar, or in booking software that has an API, yes. Connecting Google Calendar, or a booking system that has an API, is included. More complex integrations are quoted separately.
Will clients know they are talking to an AI and not the esthetician?
Yes. Callers are told they are talking to an AI assistant. It is never presented as a person.
