How do I get the review link?

Find your Place ID with Google’s Place ID finder, then build a search.google.com/local/writereview?placeid=… URL and encode that.

Does it work without an app?

Yes. iPhone (iOS 11+) and Android (10+) scan from the camera; the client needs a Google account to post.

Can I tell how many people scanned?

A static code can’t be tracked. For scan counts, use a dynamic code that redirects to your review link — see the static vs dynamic guide.

A salon’s Google rating is local gold — it’s how new clients pick between you and the place down the road. The catch is that delighted clients rarely review unprompted; they admire the cut, pay and leave. A review QR code catches them at checkout, when satisfaction is peaking. Point it at your https://search.google.com/local/writereview?placeid=… link so the scan opens the star box directly.

Where a salon review code goes

On the reception desk at checkout — the natural pause while the client pays and rebooks.
On a small station card — a gentle prompt the stylist can point to during the blow-dry.
On the receipt or appointment card — travels home as a reminder.

Ask at the chair, scan at the desk

The stylist mentioning it warmly — “If you love it, a quick review would mean the world” — then the desk card to scan, beats a silent code every time. Keep the ask personal and the action instant. If you also build a following, pair this with your salon Instagram code on the mirror.
