What does a hairdresser's or barber's website cost in the UK?
Quotes for hairdressers and barbers are hard to compare because some are one-off prices and some are monthly plans. Below is an itemised example using Millwards Digital's published pricing. Try your own figures with the free website cost calculator, or see UK website costs by trade.
Itemised example
| Item | Type | £ |
|---|---|---|
| Launch package: website build | Once | 249 |
| Website care: hosting, maintenance and support (from) | Per month | 39 |
Year 1: £249 + 12 × £39 (£468) = £717. 3 years: £249 + 36 × £39 (£1,404) = £1,653. Prices are the live figures on millwards.shop; check what any quote includes before comparing totals.
What a website for a hairdresser or barber needs
- Services and prices list, kept easy to read on a phone
- A prominent Book now link to your booking system or phone number
- Gallery of cuts, colour and styles you have actually done
- Opening hours, address, map and parking or transport notes
- Team page showing who does what
- Reviews and an Instagram link if you use it
What to watch for
If you use a third-party booking system, check whether it has its own monthly fee on top of the website. Ask who updates prices and photos when styles or opening hours change.
Frequently asked questions
How much does a hairdresser's or barber's website cost in the UK?
It depends on what is included. In the Millwards Digital example on this page, Launch is £249 to build and website care is from £39 a month, which is £717 in year 1 and £1,653 over 3 years. Always add up the build, monthly and yearly lines of any quote, including any booking system.
What should a barber shop website include?
Services and prices, opening hours, address and map, a gallery of your work and an obvious way to book. Make the booking link or phone number visible without scrolling.
Do I need online booking on my salon website?
Not always. A simple book-by-phone or message option works for many small salons. If you add online booking, check the booking tool's own fees.
Is Instagram enough for a hairdresser?
Instagram shows your work but a website gives customers prices, hours and a booking route in one place and can be found in local searches.
