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.)
Swanky Chic Hair is partly visible to agents.
Some AI assistants are turned away by Swanky Chic Hair'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 on the site.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://www.swankychichair.com/pages.php?pageid=11 (on the business's own site)
- Phone: +17185284247
- Address: 12905 Merrick Blvd, 11434-3448, Jamaica
- Prices: 3 prices on the site, the middle one $206

## Nearby, also direct
Places near Swanky Chic Hair that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between.
- Rhonda's Jazzy Hair Creations (130 m): https://directindex.org/r/craigslist.org
- Manifest Beauty Bar (270 m): https://directindex.org/r/godaddysites.com
- Strands Salon (940 m): https://directindex.org/r/strandssalon.com
- DMT (1.1 km): https://directindex.org/r/dmtbarber.com

## What to fix first
- **No structured data for the business.** (+15 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
- **No price list of services found.** (+7 points) Agents answer 'what do they offer and what does it cost?' from marketplaces and directories instead. 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
- **robots.txt blocks Claude-User, Perplexity-User.** (+2.5 points) These are the crawlers behind ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Google's AI features. Remove the Disallow lines for them, or add explicit Allow rules. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/robots-txt-for-ai-agents
- **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

## What the site tells visitors (Measured, not scored)
- **3 prices on the landing page, the middle one $206.** In New York, the middle price of comparable sites that show prices is $75.00.

## Fix kit: What to paste
