Texas has no state income tax. Every dollar you save on software stays in your pocket. The $501 annual savings from switching to Nexa is real money — not reduced by state taxes.
Whether you call it billing, a system for jobs, or a invoicing system — most salones de belleza in Austin piece together Alegra, Nubox, Siigo along with other platforms. That's $780/year in subscriptions. Within 5 years at today's prices, that bill reaches $3,900.
Nexa means you own your business software. Your CRM, billing, scheduling, jobs, time tracking, and financial tools — unified in one system. One tap books a client. One tap generates an invoice. No duplicate data entry. No Zapier. No integration tax. It's a pay once — save money immediately. For salones de belleza in Austin 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.
Appointments from 9am to 8pm. WhatsApp is the booking system. Product used per client tracked nowhere. Tips split on paper.
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 an estilista'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 an estilista — 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Found something out of date?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.
