Barbers and salons
The walk-in waitlist for barbershops and salons
Twelve walk-ins a day, Tuesday to Saturday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. Clients take a number from the QR code by the door or the link in your bio, see how many are ahead, and you work the list from your phone.
The problem
What goes wrong for barbers and salons
The bench is the waitlist
People sit for an hour, leave to get coffee, and lose their turn. The order is whatever the chairs remember.
You are the booking system
Texts, DMs, and calls all ask the same question: can you take me today?
No-shows and doubles
Two people expect the 3:00 slot. One walk-in took the spot of a regular who said they would come.

Built for this line, not a generic form

- Optional Time slot field for a morning and an afternoon block with their own caps.
FAQ
Questions
Does it text people when the chair is free?
No. There is no SMS. You can send a "your turn" email from the entries page, or call the phone number on the entry.
Can I see the list on my phone?
Yes. The dashboard works on a phone. Today's entries, their numbers, and their answers, with mark served and remove.
What about clients who leave and do not come back?
Remove them from the entries page and the spot frees up for the day. Clients can also leave from their status link.
