About Us

The people, the purpose and the principles behind the directory.

Blusher and Blogging is an independent guide to beauty businesses across the United States. Whether you are looking for a hair salon in Dallas, a nail studio in Seattle or a barbershop in Chicago, we bring together the practical details you need in one easy-to-browse place.

The site is written for people who are deciding where to spend their time and money. Instead of scrolling through social feeds or opening a dozen tabs, you can choose a city, choose a service, and compare the businesses we cover side by side.

How the directory works

Every business is organised by city and then by service. Choose a city, pick the service you are after, and you will find a focused list of the businesses we cover there — with their address, phone number, website, opening hours and current ratings alongside. We believe a directory should help you compare quickly, not force you to open a dozen tabs.

We group businesses this way because it matches how people actually search. Someone in Fort Worth looking for a med spa does not need a national list of thousands of clinics; they need the handful of places that are relevant to their city and their treatment. Pages are created when there is enough local information to make them useful, and they are expanded as we add more businesses.

Where the information comes from

Listing details are compiled from public sources, business websites and profile pages, and are checked as we add them. Opening hours change, prices vary and teams move on, so we always suggest confirming the essentials directly with the business before you travel or book.

We do not ask businesses to write their own reviews, and we do not copy review text from other platforms. Ratings shown on listing pages are gathered from public sources and are presented for comparison only.

Keeping listings current

A directory is only useful if it is accurate. We correct listings when a business, a customer or a reader tells us something is wrong, and we remove businesses that have closed or that ask to be removed. If you spot an out-of-date address, a disconnected phone number or a website that no longer belongs to the business, please contact us with the page URL and the correction. Corrections are free and do not depend on whether a business is listed with us.

Our editorial policy

We do not charge businesses to appear in the directory, and we do not accept payment for a favourable position. Every listing is presented in a consistent format so you can compare like for like — a higher position reflects the information we have collected, never a commercial arrangement.

Descriptions are written to summarise what a business offers in plain language. They are not advertisements, and a listing does not mean that we have tested or endorsed the business. Where we have not been able to verify a detail, we leave it out rather than guess.

What we do not do

  • We do not take bookings or payments on behalf of the businesses listed.
  • We do not provide medical, cosmetic or legal advice. Treatment decisions should be made with a qualified professional.
  • We do not sell or rent the contact details of businesses or visitors.
  • We do not publish paid rankings or “featured” placements that change the order of results.

How the site is funded

Blusher and Blogging is free to use. The site is supported by advertising, which is served by third-party advertising partners such as Google AdSense. Advertisers do not choose which businesses appear in the directory, and advertising does not influence how listings are ordered or described. You can read more about advertising cookies in our Privacy Policy.

Corrections and removals

If you own or manage a business that appears on the site, you can ask us to update the details, correct a mistake or remove the listing entirely. We may ask you to confirm that you are authorised to act for the business before making changes. Requests are handled through our Contact page.
