These checks passed — but they don't clear the site. A clean antivirus result, valid SSL, and a calm server only mean it isn't hosting malware; they say nothing about whether the business is real. This verdict is based on the site's conduct and content, not a malware detection.

Confidence
The platform is a documented capstone project by BSIT students at St. John Paul II College of Davao. Our analysis confirms the site is built on a modern, legitimate tech stack including Next.js and Supabase. The domain has been active for over 200 days, which aligns with a standard academic development cycle. While the hosting IP shows some historical abuse reports, these are likely due to shared hosting environments rather than the site itself. There are no antivirus detections or browser blocklist hits, and the visual layout is professional and functional.

Page Content

The site serves as a multi-tenant booking portal for barbershops in Davao City. It features real-time queue management, barber profiles, and a guest booking flow that requires no sign-up.

Infrastructure

The site is hosted on a modern stack using Vercel and Supabase. It uses a valid Let's Encrypt SSL certificate. While the IP address has some historical abuse flags, this is common for shared cloud infrastructure and does not directly implicate this domain.

Web Reputation

The site maintains a clean reputation across our antivirus network. No scam reports or negative consumer feedback were found during our research, which is typical for a localized, niche service platform.

Proceed with caution

Our automated review flagged enough risk that you should treat this site as unverified.

  • Treat clipandstyle.tech as unverified

    Do not enter credentials or send money until you have independently verified the business.

  • Verify the business through independent channels

    Check the company's social profiles, registry records, and search for recent news or reviews that are not hosted on the site itself.

  • Never use irreversible payment methods

    Crypto, gift cards, wire transfers, and cash apps offer zero buyer protection. Use a credit card or PayPal if you must pay.

  • Share your experience

Safety FAQ

Common questions about this site, answered directly from the scan data above — so the answers always reflect the latest verdict on this page.

  • Our automated security review marked clipandstyle.tech as suspicious. Several warning signs were detected; it may still turn out legitimate, but you should verify it through independent channels before trusting it with money or credentials.
  • clipandstyle.tech currently scores 55/100 on our trust scale. We found enough warning signals to recommend caution. Verify the site through independent channels before entering credentials or money.
  • Yes. clipandstyle.tech presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Let's Encrypt · R12, expiring in 46 days. Note that SSL only encrypts the connection — it does not guarantee that the site itself is trustworthy.
  • clipandstyle.tech is 7 months old, registered on 11/4/2025 through Namify Domains Inc. Scam domains are often freshly registered — a site under 6 months old warrants extra caution.

  • This is a permanent record of the scan run on June 20, 2026. The verdict and evidence above reflect that scan and do not change on their own. If circumstances around clipandstyle.tech have changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan, which re-runs every check from scratch and publishes an updated report.
