For nail salons
NailShutter is an embeddable AI try-on widget for your salon's website. Customers upload one photo of their hand and see your designs on it instantly — then book through the system you already use.
The problem
Customers hesitate.
Scrolling a photo gallery isn't enough — most people can't picture a design on their own hand. So they walk away undecided, or default to something safe instead of the higher-value design they were actually eyeing.
The solution
Let them see it on their own hand first.
With one photo, NailShutter shows customers exactly how a design will look on them — before they ever sit in your chair.
Upload your designs
Add photos of your nail art, organize them into categories, and set prices — right from your dashboard.
Customers try them on
Visitors to your site upload one photo of their hand and see an AI-generated preview of the design on them.
They book, your way
One tap sends them straight to your existing booking system — Vagaro, Booksy, Square, whatever you already use.
This is the real widget, running live — pick a design below, upload a photo of your hand, and see the AI preview for yourself. No account needed.
This isn't just a hunch — letting people preview something on themselves before buying is one of the best-studied trends in retail technology. Here's what the broader research on try-on and AR technology has found across retail generally (NailShutter is new, so this is industry research, not our own data — yet).

You don't need to know how to code. Here's exactly what to do, step by step — most salon owners have this live in under five minutes.
Sign up and copy your embed code
After creating your NailShutter account, go to Settings in your dashboard. You'll find a ready-made “embed code” there — a short block of text that tells a website what to display. Click Copy.
Find the “Custom Code” or “Embed” area on your website
Every website builder calls this something slightly different, but nearly all of them have one. A few common ones: in Squarespace, it's Settings → Advanced → Code Injection (or add a Code Block to a page). In Wix, it's Add → Embed → Custom Embeds. In WordPress, add a “Custom HTML” block to the page. If you use something else, look for a block or setting called “Embed,” “HTML,” or “Custom Code.”
Paste the code
Paste exactly what you copied into that area. You don't need to understand what it says — just paste the whole block as-is, without changing anything.
Publish your site
Save or publish your page the way you normally would. The widget will appear right where you placed it.
Test it yourself
Open your live site and try uploading a photo, just like a customer would, to make sure everything looks right.
