Switching
Switching from Aimy to HairConnect
We have never done this switch. That is written here at the top rather than at the bottom in small print.
What we know about this one
Which kind of data comes across in full, what ends up in an archive and how the cutover runs are described once — the same for every package: the general switching policy.
- Aimy is, by its own pricing page, cancellable monthly. Whoever pays yearly for the 5% discount first checks when that yearly period ends.
- Their switching service describes the data the package knows: appointments, invoices, services, colour cards and products. That service is about getting into Aimy; about the way out, their public site says nothing.
- Whatever your contract says: article 20 of the GDPR gives you the right to your own data in a common, machine-readable format. That right holds against any supplier, even one without an export button.
What we do not know
This gets the same billing as the rest. A switching plan that lists only the certainties is not a plan but a sales pitch.
- Whether Aimy has an export function and what would be in it. We have never seen one of their accounts.
- How their colour cards are stored. That decides whether we can take them over in full or only as text.
- What happens to your data after you cancel, and how long you can still reach it.
Your part
What you arrange yourself
- Ask Aimy in writing for a complete export of your data, explicitly invoking article 20 of the GDPR. Do that first: the answer can take weeks.
- Ask explicitly whether your colour cards are included. It is the most valuable part of a salon's file, and the part most often missing.
- Check whether you pay monthly or yearly, and when your period ends — so you do not switch just after a new period starts.
- List your add-ons separately: messages, payments and links each have an ending of their own. And let your old booking link fade out — it sits in your mail history and on your Google profile.
- Can you read my Aimy data?
- Once we have an export in hand, yes. What we can do with it depends on what is in it — and we can only tell you that after looking. That look comes before anything is decided.
- How long does it take?
- Reckon on four to eight weeks, as with any other switch. Most of that is waiting for your export.
- What if the export turns out to be incomplete?
- Then we tell you, before you cancel. Whatever does not come across lands in a list of clean-up proposals; nothing is skipped silently.

Before anything is decided, we know together what is in your current package and how much of it comes across.
