In production

Built in a real Portuguese salon, not a lab

Lumbu was built inside Ukembu Beauty, a trichology salon in Cacém. Real bookings, real staff, real money — every day for 6 months. That’s a proof point Fresha and Treatwell can’t match.

First 10 salons → €49/month for life

Founding customers get locked-in pricing for life and direct input on the product roadmap. We’re looking for salons in Lisbon and Porto who want to stop duct-taping tools together.

Running your salon shouldn’t feel like chaos

You didn’t open a salon to manage 5 different tools.

Without Lumbu

  • Bookings scattered across WhatsApp and notebooks
  • Staff schedules shared in group chats
  • No idea how much revenue you made today
  • You don’t know how the salon did until you count the cash at closing

With Lumbu

  • Every booking in a shared calendar, auto-confirmed
  • Staff see their schedule in a dedicated portal
  • Live revenue and utilization dashboard
  • Real-time dashboard shows revenue, bookings, and staff utilization from your phone

What you get

One system. Everything you need.

Never ask "How did we do today?" again

  • Bookings, revenue, and utilization live on your phone — no end-of-day counting
  • Built for owners who manage remotely: see everything without calling the salon

Questions you’re probably thinking

My staff isn’t tech-savvy. Will they actually use it?

The staff portal is a simple mobile screen showing today’s appointments. We designed it for stylists who don’t use computers — big text, big buttons, zero training. Ukembu’s team was using it on day one.

What happens to my existing client data and bookings?

We import everything during setup. Your existing appointments, client list, and services transfer to Lumbu within 24 hours. You keep every booking and client record — nothing is lost.

Is my data secure? Where is it stored?

Your data is stored in EU-hosted servers and protected by row-level security — each salon can only access its own data. All connections are encrypted. We’re fully GDPR compliant.

Can I try it before committing?

Yes. We offer a 14-day setup period where we configure everything for your salon. If it’s not right for you, cancel before the first billing cycle — no charge, no questions.

Switching is easier than you think

No technical knowledge needed. We handle the hard parts.
