Managely is a brand that is challenging the landscape of beauty salon management, including hairdressers, barbers, and beauty centers, aiming to establish itself as a direct competitor to lead this market.
The new management software has been designed to streamline the internal operations of beauty salons and introduce a touch screen mode for ease of use.
Outdated interface
Make the new dashboard smart, intuitive, and aligned with the new visual design, with the goal of reducing usage barriers and maximizing salon owners’ efficiency in performing salon management tasks.
Visual
We built the new interface based on the brand identity already used for the mobile version. Linear icons with soft curves, Managely’s primary colors, and a Serif font designed to convey elegance and innovation.

Design system
The need to create an intuitive platform consistent with the work done for the user app led us to consider the necessity of a design system. This allowed the company’s internal development team to quickly build the new interfaces, resulting in significant savings during the development phase, while creating a unique and recognizable system.
New User Flows
Starting from the needs of salon owners, the new interface introduces new navigation flows and builds on the innovations already integrated into the mobile version. Bookings can now be fully managed from a single screen, where the user can view every detail through the use of tabs that simplify navigation.
To speed up the payment process, a new section dedicated to the checkout has been designed. The system recognizes the products and services most frequently purchased by the customer and suggests them as primary options. Thanks to a virtual receipt displayed on the screen, the barber can preview the services provided and make any adjustments to the final result before printing.
Streamlined Settings
The settings structure has been completely redesigned and simplified compared to the complexity of the previous dashboard. New user flows have been created with the goal of streamlining the initial setup process. Each section has been reorganized to include only essential information, allowing the user to easily explore and become familiar with the various available options.
White Mode
Even in the “White mode” version, the brand colors have been retained, ensuring an interface that helps users easily identify interaction points. The visual cleanliness has been designed to create an organized and tidy workspace, ideal for efficiently managing a large amount of information on a daily basis without distractions.
