# Techniques Hair Shop: Agent-Direct Score D (53.8%)

Site: http://www.techniqueshairshop.com/
Report: https://directindex.org/r/techniqueshairshop.com
Scanned: 2026-10-25 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
Techniques Hair Shop is hard for agents to use.
An AI assistant can open Techniques Hair Shop'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 Schedulicity.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://www.schedulicity.com/scheduling/THSQF4 (through schedulicity acting for the business)
- Phone: +17205024459
- Address: 858 Santa Fe Dr, 80204-4345, Denver

## 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
- **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

## 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.
