# Brown Sugar Hair Salon: Agent-Direct Score D (44.6%)

Site: https://www.brownsugarme.com/
Report: https://directindex.org/r/brownsugarme.com
Scanned: 2026-10-16 (Provisional: the action test and the assistant citation check still to come; the hatched part of the bar is not measured yet.)
Brown Sugar Hair Salon is hard for agents to use.
AI assistants cannot open the website of Brown Sugar Hair Salon, so they rely on what other sites say about it.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://www.brownsugarme.com/hair-treatments (on the business's own site)
- Phone: +97143263288

## What to fix first
- **The site turns every visitor without a browser away, AI agents included.** (+25 points) A plain fetch was refused (cloudflare_challenge); only a real browser got the page. Every AI crawler and agent is turned away the same way, so Reachable scores 0 and the rest is measured on the rendered page. Ask the host to let the AI user agents through. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing
- **Price list of services lives on another site.** (+5 points) The link points to fresha.com, so the credit and the traffic go there. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+3 points) Missing: opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant

## Fix kit: What to paste

Structured data (JSON-LD). One block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom-code slot. Replace anything that is wrong.

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** There is no robots.txt, which allows everything.
- **Structured data present (LocalBusiness).** address, phone
- **Appointments on your own site.** Agents can book an appointment without a marketplace in the loop.
