Fresh hair color and style
Verified pros

What you can book

Your hair, done your way.

Cuts, color, balayage and highlights, blowouts, extensions, braids, locs, silk presses, natural hair, and more. You pick the stylist and the service, see exactly what's included before you book, and never get talked into an add-on you didn't ask for.

Every pro, verified

Know exactly who you're booking.

Your hair is personal, and a stylist you trust is hard to find. So nobody appears on Baela without clearing the same baseline first. Cosmetology license and insurance show on each profile, where they apply.

ID verified Background-checked Vetted before going live

Booking a mobile stylist to come to you? You also get in-app messaging and a one-tap SOS that calls 911 and alerts a trusted contact.

How it works

Pricing

No surprises.

The price you see is the price you pay. Each stylist sets their own rates and shows exactly what's included, length and color and all, so there's no guessing and no surprise total at the chair. Tip if you want to, never because you have to.

Good questions

The short answers.

What can I book a stylist for?

Cuts, color, balayage, highlights, blowouts, extensions, braids, locs, silk presses, natural hair, and more. Each stylist lists what they do and what's included, so you book the work you actually want.

Many stylists offer mobile appointments, or you can book at their chair or salon. In-home visits include in-app messaging and a one-tap SOS that calls 911 and alerts a trusted contact.

Are the stylists verified?

Every pro clears the same baseline: ID verified, background-checked, and vetted before going live. Cosmetology license and insurance show on each profile where they apply.

How much does an appointment cost?

It varies by stylist, service, length, and color work. You see each pro's rates and what's included before you book, with no surprise total at the chair.
