# The Hairstylist YYC: Agent-Direct Score F (24.6%)

Site: https://www.thehairstylistyyc.com/
Report: https://directindex.org/r/thehairstylistyyc.com
Scanned: 2026-10-16 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
The Hairstylist YYC is largely invisible to agents.
AI assistants can't open The Hairstylist YYC's website, so they go by what other sites say about it.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://www.thehairstylistyyc.com/ (on the business's own site)
- Order directly: https://hair-by-mk.square.site/ (through square acting for the business)
- Phone: +1-403-880-9922

## What to fix first

- **The site turns away every visitor that isn't a browser, AI agents included.** (+25 points) A plain fetch was refused (cloudflare_challenge). Only a real browser got the page. Every AI crawler and agent gets turned away the same way, so Reachable scores 0 and the rest is measured on the page as the browser rendered it. Ask the host to let the AI user agents through. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing
- **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
- **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

## 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.

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** There's no robots.txt, which means everything is allowed.
- **Appointments on your own site.** Agents can book an appointment without going through a marketplace.
- **Ordering through square on your own domain.** There's no marketplace commission, and the customer stays yours.
