Your profile header
The top of your profile — photo, name, bio, follower counts, the Share button, and the action buttons people use to reach you.
The header is the block at the top of every profile, above the tabs. It's the first thing anyone sees of you — your photo, your name, your bio, and the buttons people use to follow you or get in touch. There's no cover photo; the header is the photo plus the details below it.
Your photo
On your own profile, tap your photo to change it. You can crop the new image to fit the circle, or remove it to go back to the default. The photo is the same one that represents you in feeds, messages, and search.
Your name and switching accounts
Your username shows under your photo. If you have more than one account, tap your name — the small arrow next to it opens the account switcher, where you can jump between your accounts, sign into another, or create a new one. To change your name or username, open Settings → Account Center.
Your bio
Your bio comes from the General Information card in your Info Cards — that's the one and only place to write it. Fill it in and it shows here. Practitioners can also list the languages they speak in General Information, and those show in the header too.
Followers and following
Three counts sit in the header: Posts, Followers, and Following. Tap Followers or Following to open the full list of accounts.
Following someone
On another person's profile, tap Follow to follow them. Most profiles are public, so this takes effect right away. Collector accounts can switch themselves to private — only collectors have this option (see Privacy and visibility for how to turn it on and how to handle the follow requests it creates). When you follow a private collector, your tap sends a request instead: the button reads Requested until they approve it, and they get a notification either way. Tap again to unfollow or cancel a pending request.
Where you work
If you're an independent practitioner, your header shows a location row. How much of your address appears depends on the privacy level you chose — see Independent location privacy levels. When your exact address is shown, the row gives buttons to copy it or open directions.
If you work at a studio, your header instead shows the studio's name and the shop's full address, with the same copy and directions buttons — your location follows the studio, so there's no separate privacy level to set. Studios themselves always show the shop's full address the same way.
The buttons people use to reach you
On your own profile, the header shows Messages and, for practitioners, Bookings (or Dashboard for studios) — your way into those areas. When someone else views a practitioner, they instead see Message and Book Now. Booking is handled entirely in the Bookings area.
The Share button
If you're a practitioner or a studio, tap Share on your own header to send your profile to someone — through a chat in the app or out to any other app. It shares the same public link covered in Your public web page. Collector accounts don't have a public web page, so there's no Share button on a collector header.
