Online booking for hair salons and barbers
In short: Yes. TypeAnApp builds a booking website for your salon or barbershop: clients pick a service and a free time, get a confirmation email, and you see every appointment in your calendar. Start from our booking template and change it by chatting.
- Start from the Booking & scheduling template: Customers pick a service and time and get a confirmation email; you get a calendar.
What you can build
A booking website that answers the phone for you. Clients book a cut at midnight if they like, see your real free times, and you start the day knowing who is in the chair and for how long.
What it includes
- Services with prices and lengths, so a colour blocks out longer than a trim.
- Booking with a stylist or barber, or "anyone available".
- Only free times shown, so nobody is double booked.
- A confirmation email for every booking.
- A calendar of every appointment for you and your team.
- Reminder emails before appointments, added by chatting (each email uses a few of your monthly AI & email credits).
How it works
- Start from the Booking & scheduling template, or describe your salon, services and team on our home page.
- Change anything by chatting: "add a patch test step for colour", "Sam doesn’t work Mondays", "show our price list on the homepage".
- Press Launch to put it online at a free
<name>.typeanapp.appaddress, or connect your own domain on a paid plan.
What it costs
You can start on the free plan: one app and 25 build credits a month, enough to try it properly. Paid plans start at 19 a month (Basic), shown in dollars, pounds or euros depending on where you are. See the plans. Your own domain and taking deposits by card need a paid plan.
Frequently asked questions
Can clients choose their stylist or barber?
Yes. Ask for it in chat and booking adds a step to pick a person or "anyone available", showing only that person’s free times.
Can I take a deposit when people book?
Yes, on a paid plan. You connect your own Stripe account and ask for a deposit step in chat.
Can I set different lengths for different services?
Yes. Each service has its own length, so a full colour takes up more of the day than a fringe trim.
Will it work on my phone?
Yes. Both the booking pages and your calendar work on phones, tablets and computers.
