For hair salons
Salon software for hair salons
Self Vibe for Business runs the day-to-day of a hair salon: a shared calendar across every chair, client records that remember what each head of hair had done last time, checkout that handles both card and cash, and reports that show which stylists and which services actually pay. It works for a single stylist renting a chair and for a salon with a full team across several branches.
The problems this solves
Appointments live in a paper book, a phone, and a WhatsApp thread at once
One calendar holds every appointment, whether the client booked online, called, or walked in. Each stylist has a column, so you can see the whole floor at a glance and know who is free at four o'clock without asking.
A long appointment is booked, then nobody shows
Clients get automatic reminders before the appointment. For a relaxer, colour or anything else that ties up a chair for hours, you can take a deposit at booking, so a no-show is not a total loss and a cancellation comes early enough to refill.
Only one person remembers a client's formula
Colour formulas, processing times, sensitivities and photos attach to the client's record. When the stylist who normally does that client is off, whoever takes the chair can see exactly what was used last time.
You cannot tell which services are worth the chair time
Reports break revenue down by service and by team member. A service that fills the book but occupies three hours at a low price shows up next to a quicker one that earns more, so you can price and schedule deliberately.
