# The Barber: Agent-Direct Score D (53.8%)

Site: https://www.thebarber.ro/
Report: https://directindex.org/r/thebarber.ro
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.)
The Barber is hard for agents to use.
An AI assistant can open The Barber'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 Setmore.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://thebarberfoisoruluinr107.setmore.com/ (through setmore acting for the business)
- Phone: +40 754 634 300
- Address: Strada Foișorului 107A-109 031183 București
- Hours, from OpenStreetMap: Mon–Sat 10:00–20:00; Sun closed
- Open on Saturday
- Open after 19:00 on a weekday

## Nearby, also direct
Places near The Barber that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between.
- WOW Glow Beauty Salon (1.8 km): https://directindex.org/r/wowglow.ro

## 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.
