For waxing and laser
The next session gets booked today or it does not get booked
A laser course is eight sessions six weeks apart, and one that slips by two months starts over. The only moment the client remembers is while she is still in the room. Getting her out of it with the next date already taken is half the business.

Five appointments in three and a half hours, two of them a quarter of an hour. A half-hour grid gives you three.
Where a course breaks off
Not at the first session. Never at the first.
Session four, two months late
The hair cycle does not wait. A session due at six weeks and done at fourteen is not a late session: it is a session that has to be done again, and the client reads it as the laser not working on her.
Fifteen minutes that fit nowhere
Half a leg is fifteen minutes and a full body is seventy-five. On a half-hour grid you either sell half an hour for underarms or split the full body across three boxes in a row.
“Anything free on Friday?”, forty times
Forty messages a day, all the same, answered between rooms. The one who asked at ten had booked somewhere else by eleven.
What keeps the cycle going
Starting with what makes a next session exist at all.
The next date, before she leaves the room
You decide how many appointments a client may book with you, and it arrives switched off. If you use it, leave plenty of room: it counts every appointment that was not cancelled, past ones included, so a cap of two stops her at the third session of the course. And the window runs to two months, which is one laser cycle and a half.
Fifteen minutes and seventy-five, the same morning
Every window you publish is an appointment at the length you gave it. Publish 10:00 to 10:15 for underarms and 10:45 to 12:00 for a full body, and there is no single duration forcing you to round everything up.
The reminder that keeps the cycle intact
A miss here is not one lost appointment: it is session four sliding two months and the course starting again. The email goes on its own the day before, once, and it is the cheapest thing standing between the cycle and square one.
The one who wants to come sooner
Half your list wants an earlier slot than the one they got. They join the list for the day they want, and when somebody cancels the freed slot goes out by email: it fills itself, with the person who wanted it most.
The one who drops in and asks if you can do it now
You enter her by hand with a name, no account and no email, and she is filed at the time she arrived. If she takes the room for an hour, you close that stretch from the panel and those hours stop being offered.
How it works
Three steps, and the middle one is no longer yours.
- 1
Your dashboard
Publish your hours
Set your week once: which days you work and at what hours, how long an appointment lasts and the break you want between them, and your hours are split into times clients can book. Services can each have their own length. Then add the one-off dates and the days you are closed.
- 2
What your client sees
Your clients book themselves
At any hour, from their own account. They pick a slot that is open and the booking is taken then and there, with the day and the time in their own list. Two people cannot end up with the same slot: the database refuses the second booking outright, rather than leaving you to catch it afterwards.

Your dashboard
You collect the deposit and the calendar fills
If you ask for a deposit, the client transfers the money and uploads the receipt, and the deposit is settled once you approve it from your dashboard. A reminder goes out the day before and, if someone cancels, the waitlist hears about it by email.
The first thing we are asked
“Will my morning not fill up with fifteen-minute holes?”
It fills up with what you published, and with nothing else. If you publish 10:00 to 10:15 and 10:20 to 10:35, those are exactly the two appointments that exist: nobody can book 10:07, ask for forty minutes, or wedge something in between the two. You build the morning the way you want to sell it, and the list shows that.

Common questions
What people ask before they start.
Laser is every six weeks. Can it be booked that far ahead?
Yes: bookings open two months ahead, which is eight and a half weeks, so a session six weeks out always fits and the client leaves the room with the next date chosen. All eight sessions of a course do not fit at once: the next two or three do, and the rest get booked as the window moves forward.
Where do I put the instructions for before a session?
In your service description, which is what the client reads before choosing a time: do not shave, stay out of the sun, come without cream. It is the only place she will read them: the evening-before email carries the day, the time and your service name, and nothing more. Booking with an account sends no email at all.
What if she arrives and wants underarms added?
You do it if the time is there: the app does not invoice and does not count services, so what happens in the room is yours. What you cannot do is stretch the appointment when the next slot is already taken, because the window she booked is the window she booked.
Do my clients need an account?
That is up to you. Switch guest booking on — it arrives switched off — and a name and an email are enough: no account, no password, the booking is confirmed by email, and that same link is how they cancel. Leave it off and the client creates an account with a confirmed email address, and in exchange sees all their bookings in one place and cancels the ones they cannot make. Either way, they get the reminder by email the day before.
How do deposits work?
You decide whether to ask for a deposit, how much, and in which currency, and you write the transfer instructions your clients see. They transfer the money and upload the receipt; you look at it and approve or reject it from your dashboard. Until you approve it, the receipt shows as pending.
What happens when someone cancels?
Your dashboard updates without a reload. If nobody is waiting on that day, the slot goes back on the public list immediately. If people are queued, the freed slot is emailed to the first few of them and held for half an hour: for that stretch it is offered to nobody else, and the first of them to take it keeps it. If none of them does, it goes back on the public list.
Can I plug it into my website or my calendar?
Yes. There is a widget to paste into your page, so clients book without leaving your site, and an ICS feed you subscribe to from Google Calendar, Outlook or your phone. The feed is read-only: appointments flow into your calendar, but what you put in Google does not block hours here.
Does it work if I also see people without a booking?
Yes. Whoever turns up unbooked you enter by hand, with a name and no account, and they are filed at the time they arrived. And if you want air between two appointments, set a break between appointments in your schedule, and those minutes never reach whoever is booking.
How much does it cost?
The first 30 days are free, with everything included and no card. After that it is a flat monthly subscription: the same price whether you take ten appointments or two hundred, with no commission per booking or per deposit. If you decide not to continue, nothing is charged and your data stays where it is.
