MAYFIVE is a boutique hair salon located on Devonshire Road in Chiswick, founded in 2018 by Katie Allan. Under Katie’s creative direction, the salon offers an elevated, personal experience that blends technical skill with a relaxed, stylish atmosphere. The interior aesthetic—soft neutrals, leafy accents, and luxe materials, mirrors the salon’s ethos of refined but unpretentious elegance. As a full-service hair destination, MAYFIVE’s offerings include colouring (balayage, highlights), cuts, styling, extensions, and bespoke treatments tailored to each client’s hair type and lifestyle. Known locally as a hidden gem, MAYFIVE has earned praise for its attentive consultations, high service standards, and warm client experience.
MAYFIVE’s original website no longer reflected the salon’s premium experience or growing reputation. The site felt dated, difficult to update, and didn’t clearly communicate the breadth of services or the brand’s unique identity. Essential features like a clear services menu, pricing tables, and blog functionality were either missing or clunky, which made it harder for new clients to discover treatments or book confidently online. Katie also wanted the website to better showcase the salon’s values, team, and partnerships, while aligning with the salon’s stylish interior and modern reputation.
We began with a full discovery phase, mapping out the sitemap and wireframes to restructure the site around user needs. From there, we worked closely with Katie to gather content, photography, and brand assets that captured the salon’s refined yet approachable feel. In Figma, we designed a fresh visual direction that mirrored the salon’s interiors and premium service. Once approved, the site was built in Webflow with a strong focus on usability: responsive layouts across devices, an easy-to-manage CMS for the blog and services, and seamless integration with Timely for bookings. We also added dynamic pricing tables, treatment descriptions, gift vouchers, and optimised SEO foundations to ensure the site performed well in search.
The new website feels like a true extension of the salon’s brand. It’s visually elegant, easy to navigate, and simple for Katie’s team to update themselves. Clear pricing, service breakdowns, and integrated booking give clients confidence and reduce admin for the salon. Early feedback from clients highlighted how much easier it is to find information and book online, and the refreshed design has helped position MAYFIVE as one of Chiswick’s leading boutique salons. The new site not only improved the client experience but also set up the business with a flexible, scalable platform for future growth.
