Florida has no state income tax. Every dollar you save on software stays in your pocket. The $1,077 annual savings from switching to Nexa is real money — not reduced by state taxes.
Whether you call it invoice management, a solution for jobs, or a invoicing system — most colorists in Cape Coral string together HoneyBook, FreshBooks, Toggl Track, Harvest along with other platforms. That's $1,356/year in monthly software fees. Within 5 years at today's prices, you're looking at $6,780.
Nexa means you own your business software. Your CRM, invoice management, booking, jobs, time tracking, and financial tools — combined into one solution. One click books a client. One click generates an invoice. No switching tabs. No duct-tape integrations. No integration tax. It's a lifetime license — cut costs starting today. For colorists in Cape Coral 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.
First chair at 9am — a balayage three-hour appointment. Noon: a gloss touch-up walk-in. 1pm a color correction that you quoted at 3 hours and will take 5. By 5pm you're behind, a toner walk-in is waiting, and you haven't logged a single formula. 7pm you sit down to update notes from memory — three of them, including which Olaplex No. 3 you upsold to who.
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 colorist'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 colorist — 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Found something out of date?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.
