### "Fantastic system and great pricing" — 5.0/5

> **Carlie** | *October 10, 2024* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love that it is geared specifically towards our industry
> 
> **Cons**: That there isn’t a way for clients to add their credit card when I schedule them (like a link they have to complete before the appointment time is confirmed) and a text system to remind them their appointment starts in 15mins and they can check in. Then stylist can say they are ready for the client via text too
> 
> It’s been wonderful\! Transfer was smooth\! Great customer service\!

> 
> **Pros**: I love the easibilty of the website. Not only for me but my clients. I love the text messaging and the goals. I love everything even the gift cards\!
> 
> **Cons**: I don’t like that I can post the gift cards, that I can only load one pic at a time and that I can’t upload videos. I’m still learning the app though.
> 
> Great\! I enjoy learning on th app and discovering new things. I would like to be able to edit the flyers in the app.

### "There are better options for your business" — 3.0/5

> **Stephanie** | *November 20, 2025* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: What I liked most about GlossGenius is that when I first started using it, it was really aesthetically pleasing. It was one of the lower-cost options, and at that point it was important to me that it was extremely affordable.
> 
> **Cons**: What I didn't like about GlossGenius is that the system was always "down". There were a lot of times that I couldn’t get in to see what clients I had for the day, or I couldn’t find their color formula because I couldn’t even log into the system. Every time they make an update, it seems to throw everything off. They were constantly changing the aesthetics of it.
> 
> My overall experience with GlossGenius is that for a lower-cost system, it's okay. They are continuously raising the prices and making different tiers, which is normal, but they are trying to add too much too quickly. The system cannot keep up with it. They do not follow up with their members to see what they like and what they don't like. The lower cost was no longer worth the headache that GlossGenius created for my business.

### "My Personal Assistant GlossGenius" — 5.0/5

> **Daisy** | *February 20, 2026* | Individual & Family Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Appointment Management, Payment Processing, Security, Appointment Sccheduling, Client Mnagement, Value for Money, and Learning Curve,
> 
> **Cons**: Not being able to save more than 1 card payment since clients are always changing card payment. Not having holidays in the calender.
> 
> I really love using GlossGenius for my business it's like having an assistant that not only helps with clients reminders but to keep in file every service, formula and products they purchase. It really has made my job so much easier.
