Conversion rate lift from A/B tests for IBE

IBE sells hair extensions and education on Shopify, and our A/B tests on its store lifted conversion rate 14.3%. We also work on its Recharge subscription flows and Klaviyo email.

Beauty and fashion

Failed mobile Core Web Vitals most often

In our 1,000-store speed test, beauty and fashion stores failed mobile Core Web Vitals more than any other category, mostly because of large images and heavy themes. We compress images and remove unused app scripts before redesigning anything.

Shade finder

Helps buyers pick the right color online

Buying foundation or hair color online is hard without seeing it on skin. We create shade finders and swatch images per variant, so each shade shows its own photos and description.

Redirects

Redirect map for Cloré Beauty Supply's move to Shopify

When we moved Cloré Beauty Supply from Magento to Shopify, we created a redirect map from its Magento sitemap and its top Google URLs and checked that every destination returned a working page. We also caught a site-wide noindex tag on launch day.

This has been the most impressive vendor partnership I have experienced. Every meeting felt purposeful, every milestone was clear, and the process was incredibly well-supported from start to finish.

Shopify for hair and beauty brands

Beauty and haircare eCommerce has specific requirements that generic Shopify stores miss. High SKU counts require faceted navigation and intelligent filtering. Subscription programs for replenishable products need flexible billing and easy customer management. Social commerce integrations must connect TikTok and Instagram discovery directly to purchase without losing the customer halfway.

Shero has worked with beauty brands including Cloré Beauty Supply, which we moved from Magento to Shopify, and IBE, a hair extension education and eCommerce brand. We scope subscription architecture, catalog navigation, and social commerce integration from the start, not as afterthoughts that require redoing later.

  • Subscription and Auto-Replenishment
  • High SKU Catalog Navigation
  • Social Commerce Integration
  • Education and Community Commerce
  • Professional and Retail Channels

What makes hair and beauty eCommerce complex

Hair and beauty brands fail on Shopify when the catalog is too large to browse, subscriptions are bolted on without proper billing logic, and social traffic arrives on pages that are not designed to convert mobile shoppers.

01

High SKU catalog navigation designed for discovery

A haircare brand with 500 SKUs across shades, sizes, and formulations loses sales when shoppers cannot filter effectively. This is common in all fashion and apparel brands we work with. Shero creates faceted navigation and collection architecture that makes large beauty catalogs searchable by the attributes beauty shoppers actually use to choose.

02

Subscription programs for replenishable products

Shopify handles subscription billing through apps such as Recharge. Shero sets up auto-replenishment programs with flexible intervals, easy skip and pause logic, and customer management that reduces churn without requiring your team to intervene manually.

03

Social commerce that connects discovery to purchase

Hair and beauty brands need TikTok Shop, Instagram Shopping, and Meta Catalog integrations that keep the customer in the purchase flow instead of dropping them to a homepage. See how we approach Shopify Meta Ads for how paid social connects to your Shopify catalog.

04

Professional and retail channels on one platform

Many hair brands sell to professionals wholesale and to consumers retail. Shero sets up Shopify stores with B2B account management, professional pricing tiers, and volume ordering alongside the DTC channel so both customer types are served from one platform without workarounds.

05

Mobile-first checkout for shoppers buying on phones

Shero creates mobile-optimized product pages with fast-loading imagery, thumb-friendly filtering, and Shop Pay enabled checkout so the majority of your traffic converts instead of abandoning at payment. We test live payments, Shop Pay and shipping rates on phones before launch.

06

Education content and community that drives repeat purchase

Education content gives hair and beauty buyers a reason to come back between orders. IBE sells hair extension education and subscription commerce on Shopify, and our A/B tests on that store lifted conversion rate 14.3%. See how we approach Shopify SEO for beauty brands that publish educational content.

Process

How a hair and beauty store project works

Hair and beauty catalogs grow fast, so the product structure gets planned before any theme work.

  1. 01

    Discovery and catalog audit

    In recorded workshops we review shades, lengths, textures and sizes, decide which are variants and which are separate products, and agree scope and acceptance criteria.

  2. 02

    Design and shade setup

    We design in Figma with two revision rounds and sign-off. Shade swatches use real product photos, and filters let buyers narrow by hair type or concern.

  3. 03

    Set up, replenishment and social

    Shampoo, conditioner and treatments get subscribe and save at frequencies that match a bottle's life. We connect TikTok, Facebook and Instagram so catalog and stock stay in step with Shopify.

  4. 04

    Mobile QA and UAT

    QA checks live payments, Shop Pay and shipping rates on phones. Your team logs issues in BugHerd and signs off in UAT.

  5. 05

    Launch and hypercare

    We go live with a rollback plan. Hypercare covers the first 2 to 4 weeks.

Invisible Bead Extensions®

"Working with Shero Commerce on our migration from WordPress to Shopify was honestly such a pleasant experience. We’d been on WordPress for five years with tons of content and very specific styling, and moving all of it into one cohesive Shopify site was no small feat, this was a genuinely complex, highly technical migration. But they pulled it off on deadline with zero errors and zero issues. Their team showed up with everything we needed: a project manager, multiple developers, marketing leads, email specialists, and CRO experts, all coordinated through dedicated meetings and a real task management system. They also designed several high impact conversion pages so our digital presence didn’t just function better, it looked beautiful too. Since migrating, we’ve seen an increase in revenue thanks to having one simplified, cohesive platform. I’m so grateful for how seamlessly they executed this, and I’d recommend Shero Commerce to anyone facing a migration like ours."
