Barbershop booking system

Barbershop appointment scheduling software

Bookedin’s barbershop appointment scheduling software helps barbers and shop owners move from walk-in chaos, DMs, and phone calls into a clear, automated booking system. Wake up to a full day of paid cuts without digging through messages, paper notebooks, or double-booked time slots.

Clients simply pick the service, choose their barber, pay their deposit (if needed), and get instant confirmation. You and your team just open the calendar, see who is in your chair next, and focus on delivering sharp fades and clean beard trims.

With Bookedin, you can customize your online booking page, list all your services and prices, upload shop photos, and set your own deposit rules and cancellation policies.

When the shop closes, your booking page keeps working 24/7. Clients can lock in their next cut whenever it suits them. Every appointment, deposit, and client message is stored in one place so you always know who is coming in, what they booked, and how your day is filling up.

I needed to bring some sanity to my situation

“I’m a long time walk-in barber. I did walk-ins forever and it was miserable. I rarely got a lunch. Today I have my own shop and I can say that my customers have found Bookedin extremely, extremely easy. It is as straightforward as it gets. When I set up the whole thing, it was really a breeze.” Watch case study video→

What is barbershop appointment scheduling software?

A barbershop appointment scheduling software is a tool that lets barbers and shop owners accept online bookings, manage their daily schedule, collect deposits, and automate reminders from one place. It creates a public booking page where clients pick their service, choose a barber, and select a time that fits their schedule.

Barbers deal with constant messages, walk ins, and last minute requests. Without a system, the day becomes chaotic fast. Bookedin removes that stress and keeps your shop organized.

For solo barbers, it stops appointments from getting lost in DMs and makes it easy for clients to book without calling or texting. For multi barber shops, every barber gets their own calendar while the owner keeps full visibility of what’s happening in the shop.

The software prevents double booking, reduces no shows, and gives clients a clean, modern booking experience. Whether you're running a walk in heavy shop or appointment only, Bookedin helps you control your schedule and get more time behind the chair.

Deposits & payments

Collect deposits or full payments online to secure your time and reduce no shows. Works with credit cards and digital wallets.

Reminders & messages

Send automated SMS and email reminders so clients never forget their appointment. Ideal for reducing missed cuts and late arrivals.

Online bookings

Clients book 24/7 through your custom booking page. Display services, pricing, and your availability in a clean layout.

Client database

Store client notes, haircut preferences, beard details, past appointments, and photos in one organized profile.

How our online barbershop booking software works

A barbershop booking system should guide every client through one clean path: opening your booking link, choosing the right service and barber, securing the time slot with a deposit if required, and receiving automatic reminders. This removes walk in confusion, reduces constant messaging, and keeps your day running on time.

🔗

Find your link

Share your Bookedin booking page on Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, Google, or your website. Clients see a clean list of services like haircuts, beard trims, straight razor shaves, and combo packages.

💈

Pick service & barber

Clients choose their service, view add ons, and select their preferred barber. Live calendar sync shows only available time slots so you avoid double booking and walk in conflicts.

💳

Pay the deposit

Secure bookings with optional deposits. Clients pay by card or digital wallet, helping you cut down no shows and protect your time. Each deposit appears directly in your calendar.

Get reminders

Bookedin sends confirmations and automated reminders by text or email. If clients reschedule or cancel, the calendar updates instantly so your shop stays organized without manual follow ups.

A smoother workflow for your barbershop

When your chairs stay busy, even small scheduling issues turn into lost time and stressed barbers. Bookedin removes those friction points by automating the repeat tasks that interrupt your day. The system syncs every appointment across barbers and devices, collects deposits up front, and handles reschedules without you jumping between apps.

You do not have to stop mid fade to confirm times, answer the same booking questions, or move people around manually. Clients see your availability, pick a time, and book on their own.

This makes your shop look more professional and keeps the flow on the floor steady. Automatic reminders cut down no shows, integrated payments keep cash flow predictable, and the client database tracks preferences, cut history, and notes in one place.

During busy seasons or special events you can adjust hours, open or close online booking, and use a wait list to fill last minute gaps. Every tool inside Bookedin is built to reduce admin work so your team can focus on clean cuts, not the calendar.

  • - Automated text and email reminders keep clients informed and on time.
  • - Real time calendar sync across all barbers, chairs and devices.
  • - Secure client profiles with notes, cut history, preferences and deposits.
  • - Mobile access for shop owners and barbers working events or house calls.
  • - Flexible reschedule and cancel rules so you can match your shop policy.

Get more barbershop clients even after hours

Most people decide they need a haircut or beard clean up at random times, often late at night after work. If your only booking options are calls, texts, or DMs, you lose potential clients and waste time on back and forth. Bookedin fixes this by letting clients book online whenever they are ready, with clear services, pricing and availability - no waiting for a reply.

The free online booking page you get with Bookedin acts like a focused mini site for your barbershop. Its only job is to turn visitors into booked appointments. You can link it from Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, Google, or embed it on your own website. When clients tap the link, they see your brand, services, duration, and any deposit rules in one place.

Because all the important details are visible up front, clients feel confident picking a time and committing to their appointment without asking basic questions. That level of clarity makes your shop look professional before they even sit in the chair.

  • - Always on booking links for Instagram, Facebook, TikTok and your website.
  • - Optional deposits at booking to filter serious clients and protect peak hours.
  • - Simple follow up tools to rebook lapsed clients and keep chairs full.
  • - Clear confirmations and reminders so clients know exactly when to show up.
