A service name does not explain the visit
A client booking a color correction needs a different conversation from someone returning for a trim. Capture the agreed work in appointment notes so the stylist and reception are working from the same plan.
Software for salon owners
A calmer day behind the chair.
A color consultation, a root touch-up and a wash, cut and finish need different space in the diary. Keep each client's agreed service, appointment and invoice connected, from the conversation at reception to the next visit you arrange.
Unleash your potential.
The everyday details
You know the work.
The admin adds up.
The space between clients matters
Consultation, processing and clearing a station affect the rest of the day. A packed list of start times hides the preparation that keeps the next client from waiting at the desk.
Packages can get lost in conversation
When a client has a blowout pack, the team needs a clear view of credits used and visits remaining. A receipt in a drawer is difficult to check while another client waits to pay.
The finished service can differ from the original plan
A toner, treatment or additional styling service needs an agreed price and a clear record. Review the work with the client before it reaches the final invoice.
