We read 20 businesses in each trade, and the names above are at most 3 per trade; nothing here describes how the others reply. For a wider reference, the benchmark measured here puts the share of recent reviews a typical measured business answered at 62%, across 52 businesses. That figure is measured across all trades together, not hair, nails and barbering alone.

What to do about it

Open your Google listing and count your last 10 reviews, then count how many carry a reply from you. Every reply figure on this page is counted the same way. Among the hair salons we read, Jira Salon and CMX Beauty each answered 9 of 10. Among the barbershops, Ali Jan Barbershop answered 8 of 10. Among the nail salons, Levit8 Lounge answered 9 of 10.

The review is the customer's; the reply is the part you write. Answer the next review that arrives, whether it is five stars or critical, in a sentence or two that responds to what the customer actually said, and do the same for the one after it. The review totals and ratings above describe whole listings; the reply count covers only the most recent 10, so it is the figure your own replies decide.

How it works

  1. Run the free audit. We read your public Google reviews and replies and send you the numbers: reply rate, the reviews still waiting for an answer, and the oldest of them — with the table on this page to put them beside.
  2. Claim your page. Pick your listing, and your QR card and short link are ready to print — from your own phone, no onboarding call.
  3. Get the weekly email. Every new review with its reply drafted, private feedback that came in, and the short list of what to fix on your listing and site.
  4. Approve, and that’s it. You press approve on the replies you like. The rest — the card, the page, the measuring — runs on its own.
