Signature Cut & Colour

Full head balayage with wash, cut and blow dry finish.

⏱ 2h 15m

Built for Colour, Cuts, and Everything In Between

Not a generic scheduler — the free plan already handles per-service durations and stylist-specific pricing.

🎨 Service & Duration Control

Set custom durations and prices per service and per stylist — a balayage takes longer than a trim, and the calendar knows it.

🔔 No-Show Protection

Automatic reminders plus optional card deposits for colour and chemical services — included free, not a paid upgrade.

📱 Instagram-Ready Link

A clean booking link for your Instagram bio or Google Business profile — no app download for clients.

What customers say

10/10 service and cheaper than I was paying before

“I offer music lessons at my home, and finding the right booking system has been a nightmare. I've tried so many and have had to make them try and fit what I need... it's like Slotivo was made for me - but it was actually recommended by my friend who's a masseuse and loves it too. It's really customisable and perfect for most use cases. Would really recommend, I've had a few questions about it too and they've been really responsive and even added features I've asked for - 10/10 service and product.”

Great scheduling tool for home visits.

“I am using Slotivo to manage client bookings for in-home flower rearranging appointments. It is clear and easy for clients to select their time, and it makes planning daily schedule seamless. Takes the headache out of appointment admin. Highly recommended.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a truly free booking app for hairdressers?

Yes. Slotivo is free forever for solo stylists and 2-person salons — not a trial. Online booking, a branded booking page, unlimited reminders, and deposit collection are all included at no cost, with no card required to sign up.

Can clients book a specific stylist and service, like a colour appointment?

Yes. Clients can choose a specific stylist or "any stylist", pick from your service list — cut, colour, balayage, and so on — and see accurate durations and prices for each, since you can set custom timing per service and per stylist.

Does the free plan protect against no-shows on colour appointments?

Yes. You can require a deposit via Stripe on higher-value services like full colour or balayage, and automatic reminders go out ahead of every booking — both included free, not paid upgrades.

How do clients find and use the booking link?

You get a clean, mobile-friendly booking page you can link from your Instagram bio, Google Business profile, or your own website — no app download required for clients.

What happens if I take on a second stylist or an apprentice?

The free plan covers up to 2 staff. Beyond that, you move to a flat monthly plan covering unlimited staff, never a per-person charge, and all your bookings and client history carry over automatically.
