Your Glamwithease profile is your digital storefront. It’s the first thing a potential client sees when they find you in search results or browse your category, and it shapes whether they decide to book with you or keep scrolling. A complete, well-presented profile builds instant credibility, sets clear expectations, and helps you attract the type of clients you actually want to work with. This guide covers every section of your profile and how to make each one count.

​
Profile Essentials

Start by filling in the core details that define who you are as a professional. Navigate to your profile editor from the app’s main menu and work through each field:

Profile Photo

Upload a clear, professional headshot or a photo of you doing what you do best. Clients want to put a face to the name. Use good lighting and a clean background.

Display Name

This is how you appear in search results and on your booking page. Use the name your clients know you by, your full name, your brand name, or both.

Bio / About Section

Write a short paragraph introducing yourself: your specialty, your style, your experience, and what makes working with you different. Keep it warm, confident, and specific.

Service Specialty

Select your primary specialty category, Hair & Styles, Braids & Locs, Esthetics, Cosmetics, or Nails & Art. You can serve multiple categories, but pick the one that best represents your main focus.

Location & Travel Radius

Set your primary working location so clients nearby can find you. If you offer mobile services, indicate how far you’re willing to travel.
Every field in this section contributes to how the Glamwithease algorithm surfaces your profile to nearby clients, so fill in everything even if it feels small.

​
Your Portfolio

Your portfolio is the most powerful part of your profile. Before a client reads your bio or checks your prices, they look at your work, so make every photo count. To add portfolio photos, go to your profile editor and tap Add to Portfolio. Upload images directly from your phone’s camera roll. There’s no hard cap on how many photos you can add, so aim for variety: show different styles, different hair textures, different nail shapes, different skin tones. The more range you demonstrate, the wider your appeal.
Use the highest quality photos you have. Natural lighting or a well-lit ring light setup makes a significant difference. Clients browse Glamwithease visually, a sharp, well-lit photo of your work will consistently outperform even the most polished written bio. If possible, take a consistent “after” shot at the end of each appointment and add it to your portfolio regularly so it stays fresh.
Organize your portfolio so your best and most recent work appears prominently. Regularly adding new photos also signals to clients that you’re active and taking bookings.

​
Location and Travel

Setting your location accurately helps Glamwithease match you with clients in your area. In your profile editor, enter your primary working address or neighborhood. This doesn’t have to be an exact address, a city or zip code is enough for discovery purposes. If you offer mobile services and travel to clients, enable the mobile service option and set your travel radius. You can specify a maximum distance you’re willing to travel, and clients outside that radius won’t be shown your profile as a local result. If you charge a travel fee for mobile appointments, you can build that into your service pricing or note it in your service description.
If you work out of a salon suite or shared studio space, list the general area rather than a personal home address. Your exact location is only shared with clients after a booking is confirmed.

​
Contact and Availability Display

Clients can see your general availability before they request a booking, which helps them decide whether your schedule works for theirs. Once your profile is live, your open time slots are visible on your booking page based on the schedule you’ve set. To manage how your availability appears:
  • Set your working days and hours in the Schedule section of your profile editor.
  • Block off personal time, vacation days, or days you’re fully booked directly on your calendar.
  • Keep your schedule up to date, a profile that shows availability but doesn’t confirm bookings quickly can lead to frustrated clients and lower search ranking.
Clients can also message you directly through Glamwithease before booking if they have questions. Make sure your notification settings are on so you don’t miss incoming messages.
