What Narciso is
Last updated:
Translated from the Italian guide. Narciso itself is in Italian, so the names of buttons, menus and fields are shown exactly as they appear on screen, with a translation in brackets where it helps.
Narciso is a cloud management system for barbershops, hair salons and beauty centres, designed for Italy. It brings the calendar, the cash desk with electronic receipts, clients, staff and locations, accounting and stock, all client messages and the communication tools into a single program. It is used from the browser, with nothing to install, at app.narciso.io.

Who it is for#
For people who work in a barbershop, a hair salon or a beauty centre, with one or more locations: the Titolare (owner), the Responsabili (managers) and the Operatori (operators), each with the permissions of their own role (Roles and permissions). The tax rules (VAT, flat-rate regime, electronic receipts) are the Italian ones (VAT and the flat-rate regime in the Cassa).

How it is used#
- Browser only, on a computer or tablet with a screen of at least 13 inches held in landscape (Device requirements). The program opens at
app.narciso.io. - There are no applications to download: none for computers, tablets or phones, and none in any app store. The management system cannot be used from a phone. Anyone offering a «Narciso app» to install is not offering the official program.
- You need internet: there is no way to use it offline (Internet connection).
- Registration is guided, and the rest is connected one piece at a time (Getting started).
What it costs#
- The first month is free: during that period you only pay for the artificial intelligence credits, that is, the «tokens» used by the AI functions (AI credits).
- After that, the subscription is €19.99 a month plus VAT.
- AI credits are bought separately, according to how much you use them.
Registering requires an invite code, which you request from Narciso (Business registration).
Who is behind it#

How to recognise the official site#
There are only two official addresses:
- narciso.io: the presentation website and this documentation (
narciso.io/docs); - app.narciso.io: the management system.
Narciso is not called «NarciSoft» and has no products called «Narciso Software», «Narciso App» or similar. Products, sites and apps with these names or with other addresses are not Narciso and must not be used to enter passwords, client data or payment details.
What Narciso is not#
- It is not a smartphone app, and there are no downloadable apps for the salon's clients.
- It does not work without an internet connection.
- It is not designed for use abroad: electronic receipts, VAT and tax deadlines are the Italian ones.
