Beauty Parlour Booking

Threading to bridal makeup: services added up into one booking, beauticians side by side, and reminders on WhatsApp.

Appointment Book

    Long services and several at once

    Beauty work runs from a 15-minute threading to a two-hour bridal makeup, and customers often want several things in one visit. Choose Beauty parlour and the book starts with threading (15 min), waxing (30), cleanup (30), facial (60), manicure (30), pedicure (45), haircut (30), hair spa (45), mehendi (60) and bridal makeup (2 hours), open 10:00 am to 7:30 pm (2:00 pm on Sunday) on a 15-minute grid. Tap every service the customer wants and the lengths add up.

    Threading, a facial and a manicure come to 1 hour 45 minutes. On an empty day that booking can start at any quarter hour from 10:00 am to 5:45 pm — 32 starting times — because it has to finish by closing time. As the day fills, only the gaps long enough for the whole visit are offered.

    Bridal and party bookings

    Wedding season bookings are made weeks ahead. Book the day and time, add a note only you see (“bride + 2, saree draping, trial on 3rd”), and type the amount agreed if you want it on the booking. The Calendar shows which days are filling up, shaded darker as they get full. Close the parlour for a family function under More → Holidays, and no free times are offered on those days.

    Beauticians, regulars and reminders

    The app keeps the book on this phone or computer only, sends nothing by itself and takes no payments. Amounts typed on bookings are added up on the Calendar as a note of what was done, not as accounts.

    Questions

    Can one booking have several services?

    Yes. Tap each service the customer wants; the lengths are added together and only times with that much free room are offered. The length can also be set by hand.

    How do I note an advance for a bridal booking?

    Type it in the booking's note, and the agreed amount under Amount. The app does not keep accounts or take payments; it is a note on the booking.

    Can I see a customer's past visits?

    Yes. Under Customers, tap their name to see every visit with the services, the beautician, the amount and any no-shows, with a note only you see.

    Can I stop online bookings on a busy day?

    There are no online bookings — customers call or message you. To stop offering free times on a day, close it on the Day or under More → Holidays.

    Does it work in Malayalam?

    The messages to customers can be in English, Malayalam or Hindi. The app's own buttons are in English.
