How beauty brands find independent salon accounts
Beauty is one of the few non-alcohol categories where a real public licence layer exists — state cosmetology boards register the establishments themselves. Account Finder's beauty mode uses that registry data directly, alongside location data, to find real independent doors instead of guessing from storefront photos.
State licence-board rosters, read directly
Account Finder’s beauty & wellness mode reads state professional-licensing board rosters directly — establishment-level records for cosmetology, massage and laser premises, over a hundred thousand of them — and cross-references them with federal provider-registry data, municipal business-licence feeds, live location data and federal small-business records. A licence roster tells you a salon is real and operating; location data tells you what it looks like at street level. The overlap is what gives you a back-bar door worth walking into, and every result is reconciled to one row per business and ranked against your brand before you see it. See the full pipeline.
Finding the doors worth a sample
Establishment type separated
Hair, nail, spa, barber and studio doors are kept distinct, so a color line doesn't surface a waxing-only studio as a lead.
Price tier & clientele match
Results rank against your brand's price tier and positioning before a sample ever leaves the bag.
Opt-in adjacent channels
Gyms, studios and hotel spas are available as an opt-in source for wellness-adjacent lines, kept separate from the core salon/spa list.
Find the back-bar doors on your route
Salons, spas and studios within ten miles, scored against your brand and exportable in one click.
