# Bijou Hair Braiding: Agent-Direct Score D (47.2%) Site: http://www.hairbraiding.us Report: https://directindex.org/r/hairbraiding.us Scanned: 2026-10-24 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.) Bijou Hair Braiding is hard for agents to use. Some AI assistants are turned away by Bijou Hair Braiding's website. What Bijou Hair Braiding offers is on another site. It finds a way to book or order directly, through 800salons.com. ## Direct links - Phone: +17733244405 - Address: 2110 E 71st St, 60649, Chicago ## Nearby, also direct Places near Bijou Hair Braiding that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between. - Jeffery Nails (270 m): https://directindex.org/r/devarychiro.com - Gloss Up Nails (460 m): https://directindex.org/r/glossupnailsnspa.com ## What to fix first - **No structured data for the business.** (+14 points) Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (HairSalon, BeautySalon or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification). Every assistant reads this block first, and the fix kit below has it filled in. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant - **Appointments through an unrecognised third party.** (+9 points) Check that the provider keeps your business as the seller of record. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website - **Price list of services is on another site.** (+5 points) The link goes to 800salons.com, so that site gets the credit and the visits. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai - **The server turns AI crawlers away at the door.** (+3.3 points) Requests as GPTBot (http_429) were refused, but a normal browser got the page. That's usually a bot list at the host or in a firewall that the owner never chose. Ask the host to allow these user agents. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing - **No llms.txt.** (no points, but worth doing) Optional for now and cheap to add. It's a short text file that describes the business for language models. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business - **The phone number on the site doesn't match the open map data.** The site shows +13344894403, but OpenStreetMap or Overture Maps lists +17733244405. An assistant that sees two numbers can't tell which one to trust. Fix whichever is wrong, on the site or in the map data at openstreetmap.org. ## Fix kit: What to paste Structured data (JSON-LD). Paste it as one block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom code box. Change anything that's wrong. ```html ``` llms.txt. Save as /llms.txt at the root of the site. ``` # Bijou Hair Braiding > local business in 2110 E 71st St, 60649, Chicago, Chicago hairdressers and beauty salons.
