How this ranking works

We combine each salon's customer rating with its total review count, then weight the result against the local average.

Rankings are algorithmic based on rating level and number of reviews. If we ever feature paid or sponsored placements, they will be clearly labelled as such and will sit separately from the algorithmic ranking.
