Hair salons · Palmerston North, Manawatū-Whanganui
Booking software for hair salons in Palmerston North
Palmerston North salons serve a young city. New students arrive at Massey and UCOL every year, graduates celebrate, and school ball season brings a run of upstyles. BookAndGo shows every stylist in one calendar and lets clients book the person and the service they want.
Stylists can each work their own days inside your opening hours, and a client who asks for a stylist by name stays with that stylist.
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 Palmerston North hair salons
Ball and graduation season packs appointments into a few weeks. Blocking a morning for a group, adding special hours on a Saturday and running a waitlist for the overflow helps you handle the peak without double-booking anyone.
The city also draws clients from across the Manawatū and Horowhenua, from Feilding, Ashhurst and Levin, so many rebook before they leave. A booking button on your own website, and your booking page link on your social profiles, means they can also rebook from home.
Palmerston North's salons serve a city that is younger than most, because Massey University's Manawatū campus and UCOL bring thousands of students, and a city that moves on rosters, because of Linton Military Camp and Ohakea. Massey's graduation ceremonies, school balls in the winter term and the end-of-year rush all bring peaks, and Saturdays fill early with families from the city and from Feilding, Ashhurst and the surrounding farms.
Clients who drive in from rural Manawatū want one trip to cover a cut and colour, so a combined service with its true length matters, and they value a reminder the day before. Students book late at night and want to manage the booking themselves. Defence families move in and out of the city with postings, so a salon is regularly gaining new clients who are looking for a stylist online.
BookAndGo lets clients choose a stylist by name, gives colours their full time, holds a waitlist for full Saturdays, and puts a booking button on your own website. Email campaigns to clients who ticked to receive them tell people when a new stylist joins.
Rural Manawatū and Rangitīkei clients often drive in from Feilding, Bulls or further, and a missed appointment means a wasted trip. A reminder by email the day before, with a link to move the booking, saves both sides. Saturday is the day most of them can come, so a waitlist for full Saturdays catches the clients you would otherwise lose to a salon nearer home.
Frequently asked
Do colour appointments get the right amount of time?
Each service has its own length and buffer, so a full colour books a longer slot and only times that fit it are shown.
Can our salon website take bookings?
Add a booking button to your own website, and clients book straight into your calendar.
How do I tell clients a new stylist has joined?
Send an email campaign to clients who have ticked to receive your emails. Each campaign includes an unsubscribe link.
Defence families arrive with each new posting. Can they find and book us online?
Yes. Add the booking button to your website and share your booking page, and new clients choose a stylist and a time without calling.
Massey graduation fills our mornings. Can families book weeks ahead?
Yes. Set how far ahead clients can book, and they choose a time as soon as they know the ceremony date. When the morning fills, they can join the waitlist.
Do clients get a reminder before they drive in?
Yes. Every booking sends a confirmation and a reminder by email before the appointment, with a link to move it within your notice rules.
