Hair Salon Website on GoDaddy with Phorest Booking, Stylist Bio Pages & Online Store Integration

Project Description
I am launching a new salon brand called Station PINK Salon and need a freelancer to build a polished, modern website using my existing domain:
StationPINKSalon.com
The domain is already purchased through GoDaddy, and I would like the site built using either GoDaddy Websites + Marketing or another simple platform that can connect cleanly to the GoDaddy domain. I need someone who understands salon websites and has direct experience working with Phorest Salon Software, including online booking links, stylist booking/bio pages, and Phorest online store/retail links.
This is not just a basic website project. The site needs to function as the front-facing brand site for a salon while connecting smoothly to Phorest for appointment booking, individual stylist pages, and Aveda retail/online store purchasing.

About the Brand
Station PINK Salon will be an exclusive Avada salon with a modern, soft luxury look.
Brand direction:
• Aveda-Color and Retail
• Kerastase retail
• Soft pink, cream, sage green, camel/brown, and black accent palette
• Clean, polished, feminine, upscale salon look
• Modern but warm
• Easy mobile booking
• Strong call-to-action buttons
• Professional but not overly corporate
The site should feel similar to an elevated salon/spa brand, not a generic template.

Phorest Integration Requirements
You must have experience with or be comfortable working with Phorest Salon Software.
The website needs to include:
• Phorest online booking link/button integration
• Phorest booking widget if appropriate and compatible with GoDaddy
• Links to individual Phorest stylist booking/bio pages
• Link to Phorest Online Store / retail storefront
• Mobile-friendly booking experience
• Clear “Book Now” buttons throughout the site
Please give examples of your Phorest experience in your proposal. Generic website proposals that do not mention Phorest will not be considered.

Website Pages Needed
I need the following pages or sections built:
1. Home Page
Include:
• Strong hero section
• Station PINK Salon branding
• “Book Now” button linked to Phorest
• Short salon intro
• Services preview
• Stylist preview
• Aveda retail / online store preview
• Contact/location area
• Social links
2. Services Page
Include salon service categories such as:
• Haircuts & Styling
• Color
• Blonding
• Balayage
• Gloss / Toner
• Treatments
• Brazilian Blowout
• Extensions
• Consultations
Each service category should include a button that links to the appropriate Phorest booking page or general Phorest booking page.
3. Stylists Page
Create a clean stylist profile section with:
• Link to Phorest stylist bio or booking profile
• Stylist photo placeholder
• Name
• Title / level
• Specialty
• Short bio
• “Book With Me” button
I need the structure created now, even if some stylist details are added later.
4. Shop Aveda / Retail Page
Create a retail page that links to the Phorest Online Store for Aveda products.
This page should feature:
• Aveda retail language
• Product category sections
• “Shop Aveda Online” button
• Placeholder area for future product features or curated stylist recommendations
5. About Page
Include:
• Brand story
• Aveda salon positioning
• Guest experience
• Station PINK Salon concept
6. Contact Page
Include:
• Address placeholder
• Phone placeholder
• Email
• Hours
• Social media links
• Google Map placeholder if available


Platform / Technical Requirements
Preferred platform:
• GoDaddy Websites + Marketing, if it can accomplish the needed layout and links
Open to alternatives if you explain why they are better:
• WordPress
• Wix
• Squarespace
• Webflow
• Shopify only if needed for retail, but Phorest Aveda retail is required
The site must:
• Connect to StationPINKSalon.com
• Allow easy Phorest Reviews
• Be mobile-friendly
• Load quickly
• Be easy for me to update
• Have clear booking calls-to-action
• Use basic SEO setup
• Include meta titles and descriptions
• Be built in a way that I can manage after launch

SEO Setup Needed
Please include basic SEO for:
• Station PINK Salon
• Aveda salon
• Hair salon
• Hair color salon
• Blonding salon
• Brazilian Blowout
• Hair extensions
• Local salon search terms
Location is still being finalized, so use placeholder local SEO structure for now.

Deliverables
I need the freelancer to provide:
1. Fully built website connected to StationPINKSalon.com
2. Mobile and desktop optimized design
3. Home page
4. Services page
5. Stylists page
6. Shop Aveda / Retail page
7. About page
8. Contact page
9. Phorest booking buttons added throughout
10. Phorest stylist page links added or placeholder-ready
11. Phorest online store link added
12. Basic SEO setup
13. Simple instructions showing me how to update:
• Photos
• Stylist bios
• Phorest links
• Service descriptions
• Retail/storefront link
14. Final walkthrough after completion

Website should remain unpublished or hidden from public view until final approval. If a temporary page is needed, create a simple branded “Coming Soon” landing page on StationPINKSalon.com. Do not publish unfinished pages, placeholder Phorest links, incomplete stylist bios, or retail pages until approved.
