Built for hair appointment timing

Create separate menu items for cuts, colour, foils, treatments and blow waves, with the price and full appointment duration your team needs. Configure staff availability, then check the times offered on your customer booking page before sharing the link.

Stylist or first available booking

Regular clients can choose a preferred stylist when staff selection is enabled. Clients who have no preference can choose first available, then review the offered times. Keep staff hours and service durations up to date so the booking choices reflect your salon’s setup.

Hairdresser appointment book app

Use the calendar and daily appointment list to review services, assigned stylists, client records and appointment status. Add phone bookings in the merchant workspace as well, so reception and online bookings share the same appointment book across web, iPhone, iPad and Android.

SMS reminders for busy weeks

  • Booking confirmation SMS.
  • Reminder SMS before the appointment.
  • YES/NO reply status for front-desk review.
  • Optional owner SMS alerts for new bookings.

Messages depend on your workspace settings and available SMS credits. Check the confirmation and reminder workflow →

Use ChatGPT for your salon’s daily admin

Invited owners and authorised staff can connect BeautiDesk Business to ChatGPT and work with their connected salon. For example:

  • “Show tomorrow’s appointments for my stylist.” Read the appointment times, services and status.
  • “Move this haircut appointment to 11:30 am.” Check availability and reschedule the existing booking, keeping its booking ID.
  • “Change the blow-wave price to AUD $55.” Update the selected service when your connection has permission to save changes.

These are example requests, not completed actions. Check the saved result in your BeautiDesk workspace. ChatGPT access is an invitation-only pilot and is separate from the standard 14-day trial; a subscription does not automatically include pilot access. Clients continue to book through your salon’s own booking page.
