# Newhair Nyc: Agent-Direct Score B (75.4%) Site: http://www.newhairsalonnyc.com Report: https://directindex.org/r/newhairsalonnyc.com Scanned: 2026-10-23 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.) Newhair Nyc is mostly ready for agents. An AI assistant can open Newhair Nyc's website. It can't find a menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. It finds a way to book or order directly, through Phorest. ## Direct links - Book directly: https://phorest.com/book/salons/newhair (through phorest acting for the business) - Phone: 19178376318 - Address: 119 W 30th St, 10001-4001, New York ## Nearby, also direct Places near Newhair Nyc that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between. - CityTouch Licensed Massage Therapy (10 m): https://directindex.org/r/citytouchnyc.com - Slánú Esthetic Spa (80 m): https://directindex.org/r/slanuspa.com - Lashnista by S - Lash extensions, Keratin lash lift, Brow lamination and tint.

Add a page that lists services and prices as text, and link to it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai - **Structured data is incomplete.** (+1 points) Missing: telephone. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant - **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 9178363748, but OpenStreetMap or Overture Maps lists 19178376318. 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.
