Colorado has a 4.4% flat income tax. Flat 4.4% income tax. Complex local tax jurisdictions — over 70 home-rule cities with their own sales tax rates. Denver occupational privilege tax ($5.75/month for employees).
When evaluating software costs, factor in your effective tax rate. A $828/year software expense is partially deductible — but Nexa at $279 once is a one-time deduction that eliminates the recurring expense entirely.
Whether you call it payment tracking, a tool for jobs, or a invoicing system — most natural hair specialists in Aurora patch together Vagaro, Acuity Scheduling, Square, HoneyBook and other tools. That's $828/year paying for software subscriptions. Across five years at today's prices, that adds up to $4,140.
Switching to Nexa lets you exit the subscription trap. Your CRM, payment tracking, appointment management, jobs, time tracking, and financial tools — under one roof in a single tool. One tap books a client. One tap generates an invoice. No duplicate data entry. No Zapier. No per-connection charges. It's a single payment — save money from day one. For natural hair specialists in Aurora weighing the switch, the 30-day money-back guarantee covers the migration window — you can run Nexa in parallel with your existing subscriptions, verify the workflow handles your real client load, and only cancel the monthly tools once you are confident the data and processes have settled in.
9am wash and deep-condition a returning client — 4c hair, protein treatment. 11am tension-free box braids on a teenager, 3 hours minimum. 2pm a walk-in for a twist-out, you fit her in. 4pm protective-style consult for a new client. 6pm you reorder Mielle leave-in and a 16oz Cantu — the bottle was lighter than you remembered when you grabbed it Monday.
That is the work Nexa is built around: the job, the client, the hours and the invoice live in one place, so the paperwork side of the day doesn't need a second shift.
Every one of those was bought once and earns its keep for years. Nexa is priced the same way: $279 once, and it keeps working whether business is busy or slow.

We build a natural hair specialist's guide the same way every time, and we'd rather you trust it than take it on faith. Nexa is our product, so the test we hold ourselves to is simple: a tool only "wins" a job here when it genuinely does that job better for a natural hair specialist — and where something free, open-source, or buy-once does it better, we say so and link you to it. Where Nexa falls short (payroll is the honest example), we name the alternative outright.
Found something out of date? Prices change and we don't catch every move the day it happens. This guide is published and maintained by the Nexa team; if a figure here is wrong, tell us and we'll fix it — getting it right matters more to us than the sale.
