How we compare
Comparative advertising in the UK has to be verifiable, which we think is a good rule rather than an inconvenience. Every claim about a competitor on these pages carries a named source and the date it was checked. Pricing is taken from published price lists where a competitor publishes one, and the page says so plainly where one does not.
We are not the right answer for everyone. If you run a hair and beauty salon with no clinical record keeping, a general salon system will serve you better and cost less. Beautay is built for clinics doing injectables, skin and laser work, where consent, batch tracking and clinical records actually matter.
