Organise salon appointments across your services and team
Zolis gives clients a public booking page connected to your salon's appointment records. Configure the services you offer, where they are available and the appointment times clients can book.
For a salon with several team members or branches, the starting point is a clear setup: which services are delivered at each location, who can deliver them and when appointments are available.
Build a service menu clients can understand
Use separate services for the appointments clients need to choose between, such as cuts, colour appointments and treatments. Set the appropriate pricing and duration for each service so clients can review those details before booking.
Describe each service clearly. If a client needs advice before choosing a treatment, explain how to contact your salon rather than expecting them to guess which appointment to reserve.
For more detail on presenting hair services, see our hairdresser booking guide.
Match availability to the right location
Where your salon has multiple booking locations, clients choose a branch and see the services offered there. Zolis checks the service, staff and location relationships during booking.
Available appointment times account for staff working hours, time off and existing bookings. Keep those records current so your public booking options reflect the appointments your team can deliver.
Explore team and location management and check plan availability for your salon setup.
Use deposits for selected salon appointments
If your booking policy requires a deposit for a particular service, Zolis can take that deposit through your connected Stripe account. Services without a required payment can be booked without the checkout step.
For example, a salon could require a deposit for a selected colour service while allowing another appointment to proceed without an online payment. Set the policy to match your business rather than treating every appointment identically.
Your Stripe connection must be ready, and a deposit-required booking is confirmed after payment verification. Read the booking deposit guide before configuring payment requirements.
Give the team context for each appointment
Customer details remain attached to the booking alongside its service, time and location. This helps the team understand the appointment without piecing together separate calls and messages.
Use email templates and appointment automations to organise confirmations, reminders and follow-ups. Timed automations depend on plan access.
