Short answer

What to know first

Xebora is Google review response software for salons that need replies handled without losing control of public tone. It drafts service-aware responses, keeps private details out of public replies, routes 1-star responses for owner approval, and records what was prepared or published.

What protects public review replies?

Review response proof comes from prepared replies, approval holds, and a record of what happened.

Service-aware draft

Replies are prepared around the public review and the salon's confirmed business context.

Sensitive hold

1-star responses wait for owner approval before anything is published.

Work record

The owner can see replies prepared, approved, published, or still waiting.

Best for

Salons with unanswered Google reviews
Owners who want fast replies without risky automatic responses to sensitive reviews
Hair salons, barbershops, and nail studios that want review work tied to weekly proof

Not for

Buying, gating, or incentivizing reviews
Hiding valid negative feedback
Publishing sensitive replies without owner control

Replies that sound present

A review reply should make the salon look attentive, not automated. Xebora prepares replies that thank clients, acknowledge specific public details, and stay clear of private appointment information.

For beauty-service shops, tone matters. A reply may need to mention a haircut, a color appointment, a fade, a pedicure, a consultation, or a return visit without exposing anything the reviewer did not choose to share.

That keeps replies useful for future clients reading the profile and safer for the owner who does not want careless public language.

Approval where it matters

Not every review deserves the same level of automation. A simple 5-star thank-you can move faster than a frustrated 1-star review with context the software cannot know on its own.

Xebora holds 1-star review replies for owner approval before publishing. The owner can approve, edit, or decide how to handle the situation with more context.

That approval model keeps the workload low while still respecting the moments where public tone, privacy, and accuracy matter most.

Review work connected to local presence

Google reviews are not isolated from the rest of the salon's online presence. A profile with current posts and answered reviews looks more cared for than a profile where every signal is stale.

Xebora connects review responses with Google profile care, Google posts, Facebook posts, Instagram posts, and weekly proof reporting. The owner can see that review work happened instead of guessing.

Xebora can keep replies moving, but it does not promise more reviews or a higher rating. The promise is controllable work and visible follow-through.

Clear enough to try before you commit.

Start with a 14-day trial. Keep Xebora only if the weekly profile, review, and post workflow feels useful for your shop.

Basic
