For salons running on a paper diary, sticky notes and a booking app that clips every appointment. One system that runs the whole front desk, built for you and owned outright.
Sound familiar?
The diary lives at the front desk, so bookings only happen when someone can reach the phone. After-hours enquiries go to voicemail. And half never call back.
Subscription booking apps take a cut of every appointment, push their own branding at your clients, and their generic "client notes" can’t hold the things that actually matter in a salon. Colour formulas, history, allergies.
No-shows run at about one a day in the salons we talk to. With no deposits and manual reminders, a missed cut is pure lost revenue and a dead chair for an hour.
We know these tools well. And exactly where they stop.
"Free" until the marketplace fees, paid features and their branding between you and your clients add up.
A solid diary. But your client history lives in their world, on their terms.
Handles the booking, goes quiet on what salons actually run on: formulas, history, preferences.
Big-salon pricing for features a three-chair salon will never touch.
Bookings in the DMs, formulas in someone’s head. Works. Until it really doesn’t.
Undefeated. Until it’s double-booked, unreadable, or left at home.
>_ Moving off any of these? We migrate your data out as part of the build. History intact.
Every piece, shaped around how you work.
Clients pick a stylist, service and a real available time straight from your own website. No app to download, no third-party branding, no per-booking fee.
Card deposits captured the moment a booking is made. No-shows stop being free from day one.
Every client’s visit history, colour formulas, allergies and preferences on one card. The record a salon actually needs, not a generic CRM contact.
SMS reminders fire automatically at 48 and 24 hours with a reschedule link, and six weeks after a colour visit the system quietly suggests rebooking.
Each stylist’s hours, breaks and days off shape what clients can book. Two-way sync with Google Calendar makes double-bookings impossible.
A front-desk view of today: who’s in, what they’re having, deposits held, gaps that could still be filled from the waitlist.
Same five steps, every build.
We spend a morning in your salon watching how the book actually works. Where bookings come from, what gets scribbled in margins, what the app you’re paying for can’t do.
A fixed-price spec: every screen, every rule (deposit amounts, cancellation windows, stylist rosters) agreed in writing before a line of code.
Working software from week one. You click through the booking flow on your phone and steer the details as we go.
We migrate your client list and forward bookings, run both systems in parallel for a week, then retire the diary.
First-week hypercare, then a care plan or full handover. Your call. Adding a chair or a stylist takes minutes, not a support ticket.
Owned outright. No lock-in.
Deposits plus automatic reminders all but end the empty chair.
Front-desk admin. Confirmations, reminders, rebooking calls. Runs itself.
Bookings arrive while everyone’s asleep. The phone rings less; the book stays full.
