Hand-coded websites for barbershops and local businesses. I build it first and you see it free. $0 to start, then $100 a month, flat. Every change handled for you, no contract, cancel any month, and the price never goes up.

The whole thing runs on one rule: you never put money down on something you have not seen. The site exists before your first dollar does.
A picture of your shop and your name is plenty. I reply the same day.
Designed and coded from scratch around your services, prices and reviews, using what's already public. Free, before any money moves.
On your phone, on a real link. If it is not for you, that is the end of it. You pay nothing and I take it down.
If you want it, it goes live: your photos go on and it is $100 a month, flat. Every change you ever want is included, and you can cancel any month.
Five of them, each one a working site you can open today. Every screenshot below is the actual page, not a mockup.
A full artist site with shows, flyers, mixes and a laser-wall video section. Built so promoters see a pro before they ever hear a set.
Visit the site
Sleek monochrome with scroll animation, a full service menu with pricing, a team section and one-tap booking by location.
Visit the site
Not just barbershops. A late-night Sonoran dog stand with a bold menu, order buttons everywhere, and a look you can read from a moving car.
Visit the site
Dark editorial look with big type. The shop's existing scheduler stays and gets deep-linked, so regulars book the way they always did.
Visit the site
Classic serif, gold turned gray on black, gallery and a shop story page. Reads like the place has been cutting hair for a hundred years.
Visit the siteI do not touch your calendar. Booksy, Squire, Fresha, Square, whatever runs your day right now keeps running it. The site is the front door that belongs to you, not a marketplace showing your clients the shop down the street.
Strangers find you on Google. They check you out on Instagram. The site is what "barber near me" opens. It is the missing piece of the stack you already trust, sitting between your Google profile and your booking app.
Every horror story you have heard about websites ends the same way: somebody got locked in. Not here.
Code is just the tool. What you are actually getting is one person who designs it, builds it, and answers the phone. I am not one of the 30 emails you got this week about improving your website. I already built yours. Want to see it?
Nobody hires a kid with no agency behind him. So I built over 1,600 sites to prove the work, and put my own name on every one of them.
Built by Alex is run entirely by Alex. No account managers, no handoffs, no offshore team. You talk to the person who writes the code. Every call, every text, every line.

Want a year at once? $1,000. Two months free, same everything, one payment.
You never have to touch it. No dashboard, no plugins, no updates. Nothing to maintain, and when you want something changed, I'm one text away.
There isn't one. I build it free, and if you don't want it, you never pay a dollar and I take it down. If you do want it, it goes live at $100 a month and I handle everything from there. I can afford to work this way because your site is already built by the time we talk, and showing it to you costs me nothing.
A Facebook page is fine until someone Googles you and finds nothing. The site is what "barber near me" opens, and it shows your prices, your work and your Book button without an account or an algorithm in the way.
Keep it. Booksy runs your calendar, the site is your front door on Google. It deep-links straight into your Booksy page, so strangers find you, see your work, and land on your calendar. Nothing about your day changes.
Then you don't take it. You pay nothing at all and I take the site down. And if you start it and change your mind inside the first 30 days, I refund that month too.
It starts the day you say go, on a secure Stripe link, and it covers everything: hosting, SSL, and every change you ever want. New prices, new photos, a new barber, a whole new page, you text me and it's usually done the same day. The price is locked and never goes up. If a year at once is easier, it's $1,000 and you get two months free.
Any month, no contract, no cancellation fee. The billing stops and the site comes down with it. Your domain stays yours either way, since it's registered in your name.
You do. If you already have a domain, it gets pointed at the new site in about ten minutes and stays yours. If you don't, you buy one for about $12 a year in your own name and I walk you through connecting it. Nobody can hold it over you, including me.
First version in about 24 hours. Your photos and one round of changes usually land the same day you send them. Figure about a week from first text to live site.
Text me a picture of your shop. That's it, I'll take it from there. Calls work too.
