# Clients book their own cut while you work Your services and prices, and a booking page where clients pick a cut and a free time. With a few stylists, each has their own calendar. When someone cancels by phone, you tell your AI and it’s done. Page: https://pagelemon.com/use-cases/salon-barber-bookings · For barbers, hairdressers and small salons · All use cases: https://pagelemon.com/use-cases/ - Clients book a free time - Email reminders - Phone changes made by chat ## This is for you if you say - "I cut hair on my own, in my own shop or on a rented chair." - "I run a salon or barbershop with a few stylists, each on different days." - "Bookings come by message mid-cut, and phone cancellations never reach the website." ## The problem Booking by message means replying with clippers in your hand, checking the diary twice and chasing no-shows. When a client cancels by phone, the website still shows the time as taken. Tell your AI your services, how long each takes and your hours. It sets up the booking page and makes a test booking. After that clients book themselves, and a phone change is one sentence to your AI. ## How it goes The example on the page: the Fade template (https://pagelemon.com/templates/#fade; live example https://pagelemon.com/tp/Fade). 1. You paste one line into your AI chat: `Build with PageLemon.com: a site for my barbershop, with my prices and online booking, Tuesday to Saturday, 9 to 6`. Your AI asks for your details. 2. Your AI builds these pages: - **Services and prices**: Each cut or treatment with its length and price, easy to read on a phone. - **Book**: Pick a service, a stylist or anyone free, then a time. A taken time disappears. - **Our people**: Each stylist with a photo, what they do and the days they work. - **Gallery**: Recent work, from photos you upload. - **Visit**: Address, hours, directions and access. 3. It's live at fade-barber.pagelemon.dev/book, and you run it from the chat. Page Lemon runs: Online booking, Services with breaks, Reminders by email, Changes by chat, A calendar per stylist, Done and no-show. ## Start with one line Paste one of these into your AI chat. Your AI asks for your details, builds the site and puts it online at a free address. - `Deploy on PageLemon.com`: The quickest start: your AI asks what the site is for, picks a design and puts it online. - `Build with PageLemon.com: a site for my barbershop, with my prices and online booking, Tuesday to Saturday, 9 to 6`: Your AI builds the site, shows you the booking setup and makes a test booking. - `Use template pagelemon.com/tp/Fern for my salon, with services, our team and online booking`: Starts from the Fern template, with its services, people and booking pages. ## Once it's live, ask your AI - `Leave 10 minutes after every skin fade`: A break follows that cut, so the next client can’t book straight after. - `Sam called to cancel her 3 o’clock on Friday. Take it off and let her know.`: Your AI finds the booking, asks you to confirm, cancels it and emails Sam. The time opens up again. - `Add Priya as a stylist, Wednesday to Saturday, 10 till 6`: On a plan with staff, Priya appears on the booking page with her own hours. Say which services she does, or your AI asks. ## What it costs Paid plan. A barber or stylist working alone fits a paid plan with one booking calendar. A calendar for each stylist needs a bigger paid plan. Not for you? Full refund within 14 days, no questions asked.

Tell your AI, or add it in your bookings list, and that time can’t be booked online. **Can clients cancel or move a booking themselves?** Yes: the confirmation email has a link to move or cancel, up to the notice you set. **Can clients pick a stylist?** Yes, on a plan with staff, where each stylist has their own calendar. Clients choose one, or “any available” and book whoever is free. **Can I approve bookings first?** Yes: every booking, or only some services, such as colour. Requests nobody answers are cancelled after 24 hours unless you change it. **Will it clash with my own calendar?** Give your AI your calendar’s private link and the busy times in it can’t be booked. Your bookings also show in Google Calendar, Apple Calendar or Outlook through a private feed. **Do clients get reminders?** Yes, by email, the day before unless you choose otherwise. There are no text messages. **Can clients pay a deposit when they book?** Yes, on a paid plan: with Page Lemon Checkout on your site, a booking can take a deposit or the full price before it’s confirmed. Clients pay on Stripe’s page, the money goes to your own Stripe account, and a Page Lemon fee applies on top of Stripe’s own. You can also sell gift vouchers with a Buy button.
