What Loop HR is
Loop HR is web-based people management software built for salons. It brings employee records, recruitment, onboarding, roles, and permissions together with scheduling and payroll calculations. The payroll tools combine hours, pay structures, and employee records to calculate commissions, bonuses, holiday pay, sickness, and overtime. A connected calendar tracks working hours, training, overtime, absences, and other staff events. Loop HR also manages holiday allowances and requests, records sickness, and calculates UK Statutory Sick Pay automatically. For employee development, it includes training records, CPD tracking, goals, and performance reviews. Named integrations with SalonIQ and Phorest can import employee and sales data and synchronise schedules and leave information, though available features vary by integration. The listed subscription is £99 a month on a 30-day rolling basis, includes VAT, covers up to 10 users, and includes onboarding support. The company also offers a free onboarding session and live chat support.
