The Problem
Where Bookings Leak Between Instagram and the Chair
Clients find you on Instagram and Google, then hit a booking step that asks too much or too little. The gaps show up as no-shows and empty slots.
01 · DM bookings
Clients book by DM, and replies wait until morning.
Booking links in your bio and on every service page take the slot at night.
02 · No-shows
Long appointments get booked without a deposit or card.
Deposit and card rules per service, with the policy agreed at booking.
03 · Generic pages
The booking page looks nothing like your salon.
Styled widgets or custom flows on your platform's API carry your brand.
04 · Lost regulars
Regulars drift away when nobody prompts the next visit.
Reminders with reschedule links and rebooking prompts go out from your booking platform.
A client sees a balayage on your Instagram at 11 pm and taps the link in your bio. It opens a generic booking page with no prices and no stylist photos, so they send a DM instead. Your front desk answers the next morning, finds a slot, and forgets to take a deposit. The client cancels an hour before the appointment. The chair sits empty, and the regulars who wanted that time have already booked somewhere else.
We start inside your salon software, whether that's Vagaro, Boulevard, Zenoti, or Square. Services, add-ons, deposits, and cancellation windows get set there first, so every booking path follows the same rules. Then we put booking where clients already look: a Book Now link on each service page, in your Instagram bio, and on your Google profile. When the platform's own pages can't carry your brand, we build custom booking flows on its API. A branded app comes last, and only when your regulars will use one.
One calendar for every booking path
Website, Instagram, Google, and app bookings all land in one booking system, so each chair and room holds one booking at a time.
Deposits sized to each service
Color, extensions, and spa packages get deposits or card holds that match the time they block.
Your brand on the booking screen
Booking pages and apps built on Boulevard or Zenoti APIs keep your look without a second calendar.

Our Process
From a Test Booking to a Fuller Book
You approve the plan and a fixed price before we build. Your front desk tests every booking rule on a phone before clients see it.
We book test appointments through your site, Instagram, and Google profile, then check what your salon software does with each one. You get a short list of the gaps that cost you chairs, with the cheapest fix for each.

What Our Clients Say
What Clients Say After Launch
Feedback from teams we have built websites, booking flows, and integrations for.
We had a pretty specific idea of what we wanted our website to become, but I wasn’t sure how easily we could explain all of it to a development team. There were quite a few moving parts, and we were working toward a deadline, so I expected a few things to get lost along the way. That never really happened. They understood what we were trying to achieve, kept us updated throughout the process, and got everything ready within the agreed timeline. The final site feels much easier to navigate, works beautifully on mobile, and is noticeably smoother for our customers. It was a huge relief seeing the original idea actually turn into the website we had in mind.
The mobile experience is probably my favourite part of the new site. We had spent a lot of time making sure the desktop version looked right, and the team kept pushing us to think about how everything would actually feel on a phone too. They were right. The navigation is clean, the interactions feel natural, and everything we’ve tested so far works exactly as it should. They also went through the links, forms, integrations, and other details more than once before launch, which I really appreciated. And even after going live, we could still reach out when something came up. The whole process felt friendly, organised, and surprisingly straightforward.
What I appreciate most is that the website is actually easy for us to manage now. We can update content ourselves instead of sending a developer a message every time we need to change something small. They also paid attention to the technical SEO side, which mattered to us because we didn’t want a new website to create problems for the traffic we already had. I’ve probably asked more questions than I should have since launch, but every question has been handled patiently and without any fuss. The team is easy to work with, they explain things clearly, and when we need something changed, they focus on getting it done rather than making the process complicated.

Not a fit
Budget under $500
Your budget is under $500. Your booking platform's free page and an Instagram Book button will cover you until you outgrow them.
Marketplace app
You want a marketplace where clients browse many salons, like Booksy or StyleSeat. That's a two-sided startup product, so our MVP development service fits better than these salon builds.
Medical practice
You run a medical practice that also offers aesthetics, and you need EHR scheduling and insurance billing. Our healthcare software development work fits that better than salon booking tools.
Retail-first brand
You mainly sell skincare or cosmetics online and book few services. An online store suits you better, so look at our Shopify and ecommerce services instead.

Booking setups start at $500 for the Vagaro widget, styled and tracked, and run to $950 for a Zenoti Webstore. Deposit rules in your current software cost $650. A custom booking flow on Boulevard's Client API starts at $2,550, or $2,850 on Zenoti's API. A branded iOS and Android app on top of that flow comes to $7,250, and salon websites start at $900.
A widget, overlay, or deposit setup takes 1 to 3 weeks. A custom booking flow takes 6 to 10 weeks. Boulevard opens its Client API only to Enterprise accounts, and Zenoti's API package needs your customer success manager to turn it on. A branded app on top of that flow takes 10 to 16 weeks in total, including App Store and Google Play review.
Start with the booking platform you already pay for, because its API decides what your app can do. Boulevard and Zenoti let an app book into the same calendar your front desk uses. Then design the screens your clients need (booking, deposits, rebooking, and memberships) and release to both app stores from one codebase. If your platform's own booking page already covers your case, we'll tell you before we quote.
Salon software runs a salon's day: online booking, the appointment calendar, client records, payments, deposits, and staff commissions. Vagaro, Boulevard, Zenoti, and Square Appointments are common choices, and each comes with its own booking widget or page. Spa software development covers the same ground for treatment rooms, therapists, and packages, which is why spa platforms like Zenoti book couples into one room.
Start with the pages clients check before booking: prices and times, stylist pages, a portfolio, reviews, and your cancellation policy. Put a Book Now link on every service, connected to your booking platform, and ask for a deposit where no-shows hurt most. Our Hair Salon Website Design page covers the full build, from $1,100.
Pick a platform your team can edit, such as WordPress or Webflow. Then embed your salon software's booking widget instead of a separate booking plugin, so there's one calendar. Keep pages light so they load fast on phones, add HairSalon or DaySpa markup, and connect the booking button on your Google profile. Before launch, test a booking, a deposit, and a cancellation.
Show your nail art by price tier, so clients know what a design costs before they book. Add station and pedicure chair rules, a party request form with a deposit, and an Instagram Book button that opens booking. Our Nail Salon Website Design page covers the full build, from $900, with galleries your clients can browse by tier.
Ask whether they build on your booking platform's API or replace it, since a separate booking database lets two clients take the same slot. The best salon app development company for your business shows how deposits, add-ons, and rebooking work inside your software. They name the API limits up front and tell you when the platform's own app is enough. We answer each point in the free booking review.
Yes for Boulevard and Zenoti, and partly for Vagaro. Boulevard's Client API, open to Enterprise accounts, supports full booking with tokenized cards. Zenoti's API runs a create, reserve, confirm, and pay flow within a standard limit of 60 calls a minute. Vagaro's API has no call to create appointments, so apps link to its booking widget and use webhooks for the rest.
You do. Client records and appointments stay in your booking platform, and the app ships under your own Apple and Google developer accounts. You get the code, admin access, and a release guide. Support covers 30 days after a setup and 60 days after a booking flow build, and any developer can maintain the code after that.
