Our Story
KESS (කෙස්), meaning "hair" in Sinhala, was born from a simple observation: salon owners were spending too much time managing appointments and not enough time doing what they love - creating beauty.
Created by Peppercake, a company dedicated to bringing small businesses online, KESS represents our commitment to making professional-grade software accessible and affordable for everyone.
We understand that every salon is unique, which is why we've designed KESS to be flexible, customizable, and incredibly easy to use - whether you're a solo stylist or managing multiple locations.
Our Mission
To make salon management effortless, allowing beauty professionals to focus on their craft while we handle the technology.
What We Believe
Technology should work for you, not the other way around. That's why KESS is designed with simplicity at its core - no complicated setup, no hidden fees, just straightforward tools that help you succeed.
We believe in transparent pricing, excellent customer support, and building products that our customers actually want to use every day.
