by

There are some domain names that just make sense — and .hair is one of them. Whether you’re running a salon, selling haircare products, sharing styling tips, or just seriously into luscious locks, this domain feels like it was made for you.

HomeDomain of the Week: Why .HAIR is Having a Moment
Read all about the latest news at Hipposerve

This week, we’ve been thinking about the power of niche domains, and .hair kept popping up — especially because it’s currently available at £3.21 for the first year (normally £17.99). That’s a pretty generous 82% off, and you can even lock in that price for up to 10 years, which is no bad thing if you’ve got long-term plans for your brand.

Why bother with a .hair domain?

Let’s be honest — most of us default to .com or .co.uk out of habit. But domains like .hair give you something more tailored. They say exactly what you do, right there in the URL.

For example:
• cutabove.hair – sleek, simple, and memorable.
• lucydoes.hair – perfect for a personal stylist or influencer.
• greathairday.hair – ideal for a blog or product line.
• wigsworld.hair – descriptive, catchy, and search-friendly.
• pamperedpooch.hair – yes, even pet groomers deserve a slice of the style spotlight.

It’s the kind of domain that helps your brand stand out without trying too hard.

Who’s using it?

We’ve come across some fun and inventive uses for .hair already:
• A hair donation initiative: giveyour.hair
• A stylist’s online booking platform: bookme.hair
• Even a parody site celebrating celebrity hairdos from the ‘80s: bigperm.hair (we’re not sure if that one’s still live, but the idea made us smile)

What’s interesting is how versatile the domain is — from high-end salons to personal blogs, there’s a wide range of possibilities. And because it’s still not as common as the usual suspects, there’s a good chance your perfect domain is still available.

Any restrictions?

Nope — anyone can register a .hair domain. You don’t need to be a salon owner or certified stylist; there are no special industry restrictions. Just choose your name, register, and it’s yours.

Why we’re loving this dealTwo cartoon hippos in a salon setting, one holding a mirror and the other getting a haircut with scissors and a comb above their head, styled in a playful flat design.

We’ll admit — part of the reason we’re highlighting .hair this week is the current price drop. It’s rare to see this kind of niche domain so heavily discounted. At £3.21 for the first year, it’s the cheapest we’ve seen it, and locking that in for up to 10 years could be a smart move if you’re building a lasting brand.
