Belline in Miami
AI receptionist for hair and beauty salons in Miami
A Miami salon's line is bilingual by default, and its calendar has two shocks in it: the winter weeks when seasonal residents arrive all at once, and the storms that close a shop for a day. Belline answers from your price list, takes the request, and says what your hours are today.

Hear the line
Two calls a salon actually takes.
The first is the request taken for your team to confirm. The second is the call Belline refuses or hands over - which is the one you are really deciding about.
Miami, specifically
What a salon in Miami is actually answering.
Miami has two seasons that matter to a front desk.
English and Spanish in one sentence
A Miami caller may begin in English and finish in Spanish, and one who is answered in the wrong language tends to ring somewhere else. Which languages Belline answers in is shown from the languages switched on today and is not promised in this paragraph. The point is that a salon in Brickell or Little Havana gets the request written down while the caller is still talking.
Smoothing, keratin and the humidity
In a humid climate, smoothing and keratin treatments are a regular part of a salon's price list and a regular phone question: how long it takes, how much, how long before the hair can be washed. Your list has the answers, and Belline reads them back as you wrote them. A treatment that depends on the hair, such as a correction, goes to a stylist as a question rather than a quoted figure.
The high season arrives in a week
From about November to April seasonal residents and visitors fill Miami, and for a salon in Coral Gables or Miami Beach the wave lands in a single week: people in town for a few months who want an appointment before an event. Those calls arrive from numbers you have never seen. Belline takes the service, the stylist and the dates, and your team confirms what the diary allows.
A storm changes the hours overnight
In hurricane season, from June to November, a business can close for a day with very little warning, and customers expect to be told before they drive over. Belline reads the hours you set, so when you change them for a storm it changes what it tells callers the same hour, rather than repeating last week's opening times to everyone who rings.
Quinceañeras, weddings and a party of eight
Miami's calendar is full of events that need a whole party done on one day: a quinceañera, a wedding, a group in town for a weekend. That is a conversation about the date, the headcount and the timings rather than a booking. Belline takes the date, the number of people and a number to ring back, and flags it for whoever handles groups.
Languages on the line
English and Spanish, often in the same sentence, with Haitian Creole and Portuguese common as well. A Miami business line is bilingual by default, and a caller who is switched to the wrong language tends to hang up. Belline answers in English.
In an emergency
Belline gives the instruction you set for the United States: 911 for any emergency, or the nearest emergency room. It takes no appointment request at that moment, because an appointment would be the wrong answer.
Your own number
Keep the Miami number on your door and your listings. You forward the calls nobody answers; nothing about how customers reach you changes.
What comes down the line
Every call a salon gets, and what happens to it.
With your calendar connected, Belline checks it and books the time straight in, on the phone, in chat, on WhatsApp and on video. Without one, it takes the request and your team confirms it.
Booking requests, with the stylist named
The service, the stylist they want, the day that suits and how long it runs. Belline takes all four and your team confirms the time in the book you already keep.
Prices and treatment lengths
Straight from your price list, word for word. A service that is not on the list is a question for your team, not something Belline puts a number on.
Patch tests, deposits and your own rules
If your policy needs a patch test before a first colour, or a deposit before a long appointment, Belline says so, takes the request on that basis, and holds the line politely when pushed.
Changes and no-shows
A client moving or cancelling is taken as a message with the time they were down for, so the chair can be refilled rather than left empty.
Bridal, groups and anything long
A wedding party or a full day of work is a conversation with a person. Belline takes the date, the headcount and the number, and flags it.
Complaints about a previous visit
Colour that did not turn out, a cut somebody is unhappy with - taken as a message for a person, with what the client said in their own words, and never argued with.
Where it stops
The most important thing it does is know what it must not answer.
Belline will not quote a price you have not given it, promise a colour result, or waive a deposit or a patch test to keep a caller happy. Complaints and anything about a previous service go to a person.

An answering service takes a message. Belline answers the question, takes the details and tells your team what to do next.
What counts as a minute
A minute is time Belline spends on a live call with your caller - on your phone line or through the voice button on your website - from the moment it answers to the moment the call ends, rounded up to the next whole minute. Calls you make from your own test console do not count, and neither do calls cut short by a fault on our side.
What counts as a conversation
A conversation is one customer's thread in your website chat, on WhatsApp or on Instagram in which Belline replies at least once. Everything that customer says in the 24 hours after Belline's first reply is the same conversation. Threads your team answers without Belline do not count.
When an allowance runs out
When an allowance runs out, you choose what happens: move up to the next plan, or stop at the allowance. We tell you at 70%, 90% and 100%. Nothing is ever added to your bill without you choosing it.
7 days free
7 days free: 30 voice or 12 video minutes and 50 text conversations, with your website chat, the voice button on the same page, WhatsApp and Instagram all switched on, plus your phone line where Belline has a line in your country. No card: nothing is charged unless you choose a plan, and on day 8 without one Belline pauses until you do. Standard onboarding is free.
Customer stories
There is no testimonial here yet.
When a salon in Miami agrees to be named, its story goes in this space: what it was losing, what it changed, and what its own team says about it. Until then this space stays empty on purpose. We are not going to write a quotation nobody said, or count customers we do not have.

Questions
What operators ask us.
If we close for a storm, will it know?
It reads the hours you have set, so when you change them it changes what it says. It will never guess: if you have not updated them it repeats what is written, which is why the hours are worth changing on the day.
Do customers message us as well as ring?
Plenty do, and some prefer to write. Belline answers your website chat and a WhatsApp number of its own from the same price list and hours, so the answer does not depend on which one somebody picked. Your existing WhatsApp stays as it is.
Will it quote prices we have not set?
No. It reads your price list and says what is on it. A service that is not on the list is taken as a question for your team, with the caller's number, rather than given a number Belline made up.
What about deposits?
Belline states the deposit rule as you wrote it and takes the request on that basis. It does not take a card number or a payment over the phone, and it will not waive the deposit because somebody asked nicely.
Will it hold our patch-test rule?
Yes, and that is most of the point. If your policy is a patch test forty-eight hours before a first colour, Belline says so, takes the request on that basis, and keeps saying so if the caller pushes. It does not have a bad day.
Can a caller ask for a particular stylist?
Yes. Belline takes the stylist's name, the service and the day that suits. With your calendar connected, Belline checks it and books the time straight in, on the phone, in chat, on WhatsApp and on video. Without one, it takes the request and your team confirms it.
