ShearShare

ShearShare is a B2B2C marketplace that lets salon and barbershop owners rent out unused chairs, booths, and suites to licensed beauty and barbering professionals on a flexible, on-demand basis — space-as-a-service for the hair, beauty, and grooming industry. Through its mobile app and web platform, independent stylists, barbers, and cosmetologists discover and book professional space by the day, while shop owners monetize idle capacity. Founded in 2015 by Dr. Tye Caldwell and Courtney Caldwell and headquartered in McKinney, Texas, the company has been featured on ABC's Shark Tank and is backed by 500 Global among other investors.

ShearShare is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Marketplace, Beauty, Salon, and Barbershop.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/shearshare: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
