Hair salons · Christchurch, Canterbury
Booking software for hair salons in Christchurch
Christchurch salons range from new studios in the rebuilt city to long-standing suburban salons in places like Merivale, Riccarton and Papanui. BookAndGo works for both: one calendar with every stylist side by side, and a booking page where clients choose their stylist and service.
Each service carries its own time, so a balayage and a children's cut are booked for the right length. Clients who rebook every six or eight weeks can lock in their next appointments in one go.
A flat monthly price
No per-client fees and no commission on your bookings. Your bill doesn't climb as you grow.
GST invoices with your NZBN
Tax invoices with your GST number, your NZBN and a GST line, numbered in order and sent by email.
Email reminders + a waitlist
A confirmation and a reminder by email, with a link to reschedule or cancel, and a waitlist for the times that are taken.
Built for Christchurch hair salons
Many salons in Christchurch rebuilt or moved after the earthquakes, and lots of them now have a website of their own. Adding a booking button to that site turns visitors into bookings without a phone call.
Christchurch salons have grown with the city's rebuild and its spread out to new suburbs. Central city salons see office workers and evening appointments; suburban salons in Riccarton, Papanui or Halswell see families and Saturday trade. Show Week and the Cup in November bring a run of styling, the school ball season fills Fridays, and the summer holidays bring the before-school cuts in late January.
BookAndGo gives each stylist their own calendar and lets clients choose by name. Colours, cuts and treatments carry their real lengths, and a buffer keeps the basin clear. A waitlist catches the Saturday overflow, and invoices carry the salon's GST number, NZBN and a GST line for clients who want a proper tax invoice. Email campaigns to clients who ticked to receive them let you tell people about new stylists or Show Week hours.
Christchurch's suburbs have grown out to Rolleston, Lincoln and Rangiora, and many families now drive into the city for a salon they have used for years. Those clients book ahead and value a reminder, while central-city office workers book late openings close to work. Matariki and King's Birthday weekends in winter and the long Labour weekend in October are the times many salons choose to close or shorten their week.
Frequently asked
Can we add online booking to our existing salon website?
Yes. Add the BookAndGo booking button to your own site, and clients book without leaving it. You can also share your booking page link anywhere.
Clients like to come back every six weeks. Can that be booked in one go?
Yes. A client can book a repeating appointment on a regular cycle, and each one is still a separate booking you can move.
Can clients join a list for a busy Saturday?
Yes. When the time they want is taken, they join your waitlist, and you can accept them into any time that opens up.
Do our invoices work for a GST-registered salon?
Yes. Invoices carry your GST number, NZBN and a GST line, numbered in order and sent to the client by email.
Cup Day and Show Day fill our appointments. Can we open early that week?
Yes. Set one-off special hours for that week, and let clients join the waitlist once those extra times are taken.
Clients move between our central and suburban salons. Can they see who is where?
Give each stylist the days they work at each salon and name the location in the service, so clients book the right place.
Clients in Rolleston and Rangiora drive in for us. Will they get a reminder?
Yes. Each booking sends a confirmation and a reminder by email, with a link to move the appointment within your notice rules.
