Booking software for hair salons in Wellington
Wellington salons serve clients who book around work, study and the bus timetable. BookAndGo gives them a booking page where they choose their stylist and service and see real times, and gives you one calendar with every stylist side by side.
Services carry their own length, so a long colour session blocks the right amount of time. When a stylist is booked out, a waitlist catches the client, and an email campaign to clients who opted in tells them about new services.
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 Wellington hair salons
From Cuba Street and Courtenay Place to the suburbs and the Kāpiti Coast, Wellington has a strong independent salon scene, and many clients are loyal to one stylist. Letting clients choose that stylist by name, and only showing the days they work, keeps those relationships easy.
Wellington's salons work around a city that commutes. Clients who live up the coast or in the Hutt want an appointment that lines up with their train, and CBD workers book late-night openings or Saturday mornings. Graduation at Victoria University of Wellington, school balls and the summer wedding season bring their own peaks, and late January brings both Wellington Anniversary Day and families getting cuts done before school returns.
Clients here tend to stay with one stylist for years, so letting them choose that stylist by name is the single most useful thing a booking page can do. BookAndGo shows only the days each stylist works, keeps colour, foils and cuts in the right lengths, and holds a waitlist for busy Saturdays. Invoices carry the salon's GST number, NZBN and a GST line, which matters to the many self-employed contractors who claim grooming for work photos and events.
Wellington's spring arts season, with World of WearableArt among its best known shows, and the run of end-of-year functions around Parliament and the government departments bring evening styling bookings that a salon closing at five would miss. Opening late on the nights those events fall, and letting clients join a waitlist when the evening fills, turns them into bookings.
Frequently asked
Clients follow one stylist. Can they always book that person?
Yes. Clients choose their stylist by name, and that choice is held to: if that stylist is taken, the client picks another time rather than being moved to someone else.
Our salon is busy around the end of the parliamentary year and before Christmas. Can clients wait for a gap?
Yes. When the time someone wants is booked, they can join your waitlist, and you accept them into a time that opens up.
A full colour needs a lot more time than a trim. Does the page handle that?
Yes. Each service is set to its own length, and clients only see start times where the whole service fits in the stylist's day.
Can we let clients know about late-night openings?
Yes. Send an email campaign to clients who ticked to receive your updates, and every one carries an unsubscribe link.
Clients book around train times from the Hutt and Kāpiti. Can they book an exact time well ahead?
Yes. You set how far ahead clients can book, and they choose an exact start time that suits their commute. Each booking sends a confirmation and a reminder by email.
Can we close for Wellington Anniversary Day without forgetting?
New Zealand public holidays are suggested for closing, and you can block any other day you choose, such as the anniversary day if you take it off.
Can we add a treatment service for winter?
Yes. Add a new service with its own length and limit it to the winter months.
