Online appointment booking for beauty salons

Bring bookings for all your services into one calendar and let clients pick a free time.

In a salon, clients want to book the service and the stylist they prefer from their phone. 4appointments gives you a booking page showing the duration and price of each service and each stylist's schedule. Bookings your team enters by hand, for example those requested by phone, land in the same calendar as online requests, so there is no paper diary.

Why salons choose 4appointments

Booking by service and by stylist
The client picks a service and a free time, and can use a separate link per stylist or the «Anyone available» option. Duration and price come from the service.
A schedule per stylist
Each stylist has a weekly schedule with exceptions, days off and blocks, and only free times are shown.
A pause between bookings
The «Buffer (min)» field on each service leaves a pause after the booking, useful for tidying the workstation.
Regular clients
For clients who come regularly, your team can create bookings that repeat weekly, every two weeks or every 30 days.

Frequently asked questions about online booking

How does the online booking page work?

Each business has a public page with its own link. Customers see the free time slots and request an appointment themselves, at any hour. A new booking comes in as pending and holds the slot until your team confirms it manually; confirmation is not automatic.

Does the system send e-mails to customers?

At present no e-mail is delivered to the customer: no confirmation, no reminder and no notice of a change or cancellation. Your team confirms pending requests and contacts the customer by whatever means it prefers. The link for managing the booking appears on the confirmation screen the customer sees when booking.

Can I sync appointments with Google Calendar or Outlook?

There is no sync with Google Calendar or Outlook. What does exist: subscribing to the ICS link of an external calendar (Google, Outlook, Apple), whose busy events block time slots and are read about every 15 minutes; a one-off import of an .ics file as confirmed bookings; and exporting each team member's calendar through an ICS link. Changes made in Google or Outlook do not change the bookings.

Can customers pay online when they book?

Not on the current plans. Only card payment is foreseen in the code; there is no PayPal, bank transfer or local payment method. Payment is arranged directly with the customer, outside the tool.

Can customers reschedule or cancel on their own?

After booking, the client’s screen shows a management link they can use to cancel or move the booking. Rescheduling checks availability and overlaps, and a pending request stays pending. The booking-page policy can set cancellation and rescheduling cut-offs and a maximum number of reschedules. The link is not sent by e-mail; for bookings created by staff and for recurring series, your team must copy and send the link.
