Migrating from Salon.io

Already have a site on the original salon.io? You can bring your pages, images, and text across to the new platform without rebuilding from scratch. Migration copies your content into a new site here — it doesn't touch your old site, which keeps working until you decide to switch off.

How it works

Migration is a short, guided flow:

Find your account — look it up by the email or username you used on Salon.io.
Verify it's you — confirm with your Salon.io password.
Select pages — choose which pages to bring over.
Import — watch your content come across, page by page.

When you first link your legacy account, you also get a 90-day Pro trial so you have room to rebuild and explore.

What transfers

Pages — title, address (slug), order, and whether they're public or hidden (a page that's live but kept out of your navigation menu).
Images — your photos, with their captions, links, and sizing carried over.
Text — your text content and basic styling.
Videos — YouTube and Vimeo embeds found in your pages.
Layout — each legacy page's layout is mapped to the closest SalonEngine layout (see Membership carry-over for tier handling).

Password-protected pages can't be migrated — the Salon.io API doesn't expose their content. If you have password-protected pages, remove the protection on Salon.io before importing, then re-add it here afterwards if you still need it.

What is not migrated

Your custom domain's DNS — you'll reconnect your domain in site settings, it isn't set up automatically.
Account details from Salon.io (password, payment info, notification settings).

Next steps

Membership carry-over — your 90-day Pro trial and what happens after.
