Hair salons · Tauranga, Bay of Plenty
Booking software for hair salons in Tauranga
From the Mount to the Tauranga CBD and Bethlehem, the city's salons are busy, and summer adds visitors to the mix. BookAndGo gives your salon one calendar for every stylist and a booking page where clients choose their stylist, service and time.
Service lengths keep colours and cuts in the right slots, and a waitlist catches clients when the week is full.
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 Tauranga hair salons
Tauranga's growth has brought new clients to every salon, many of them new to the area and looking online for a stylist. A booking page with your services clearly described, and a booking button on your website, turns those searches into appointments.
Tauranga's salons serve a growing city. New arrivals in the subdivisions from Papamoa to Ōmokoroa look for a stylist online, retirees want a regular weekday appointment, and summer brings visitors and holiday homes. Weddings at the Mount and around the Bay fill spring and summer Saturdays.
BookAndGo lets clients choose their stylist by name, gives each service its real length, and holds a waitlist for full weeks. Regular clients can keep a repeating booking every few weeks, and email campaigns to clients who ticked to receive them tell people about summer hours or a new stylist.
Ball season and school prizegivings in the second half of the year bring a wave of styling bookings, and the weeks before Christmas fill every chair. The kiwifruit and port economy also means a lot of clients work shifts or seasonal hours, so a salon that shows late-night and early-morning times on the days it opens them gets bookings that a nine-to-five phone line never would. Tauranga's retirees are the opposite: they book mid-morning, well ahead, and keep the same stylist for years, so a repeating booking and a reminder email do most of the work of keeping them.
Cruise ships call at the Port of Tauranga from spring into autumn, and on a ship day the Mount fills with visitors for a few hours. Few of them book a salon, but the traffic and parking around Mount Maunganui change how easily locals reach you, so a reminder email with a reschedule link saves an appointment that would otherwise be missed.
Frequently asked
New clients find us online. Can they book straight from our website?
Yes. Add the booking button to your own site, and new clients choose a stylist and a time without calling.
Can clients book a stylist they follow on social media?
Yes. Clients can choose their stylist by name when they book, and only see that stylist's working days.
A colour and a cut take very different times. Does the page know?
Yes. Each service has its own length, so only start times with room for the whole appointment appear.
Can we email clients about summer hours?
Yes. Send an email campaign to clients who ticked to receive it. Every one carries an unsubscribe link.
Retired clients like a standing weekday appointment. Can they keep it?
Yes. A repeating booking holds the same time weekly, fortnightly or monthly, and each visit can be moved on its own.
Can we hold a morning for a wedding party at the Mount?
Block the morning on the stylists' calendars, or book the party's appointments in yourself, so nobody else takes those times.
Seasonal workers finish at odd hours. Can we open late on a couple of nights?
Yes. Set later hours on the evenings you choose and leave the other days as they are. Only those evenings show the extra times on your booking page.
