# Hair Appointment Booking Page Template > A salon appointment as a finished booking page: 60 or 90 minutes, in person, open every day from 9:00 to 18:00, with one question, “What would you like done?”, so the stylist knows whether it is a trim or a full colour. A Beauty template in the new Vonza Scheduling, “Hair appointment”: a one-on-one meeting. Part of the new Vonza Scheduling. Included in every Vonza plan, 14-day free trial. ## What a hair appointment is and who books it A hair appointment is the bread and butter of a salon’s diary: a client books a stylist for a cut, a colour or styling, at a time that fits their day. The booking page replaces the phone call and the paper book, and it has to cope with two things a simple meeting page does not: services that take different amounts of time, and clients who do not turn up. This template offers two lengths, 60 minutes for a cut and 90 for colour or styling, and asks one question so the stylist can plan. It is in person, so your salon’s address goes on the location, and it is open every day from 9:00 to 18:00 in your time zone until you set your real opening hours. Deposits are the change most salons make first. ### Who books it - Hairdressers and barbers taking their own bookings. - Salons that give each stylist a page and list them on a team page. - Mobile stylists who travel to the client and need the address first. - Colourists who want a longer slot booked only for colour work. ## What the template sets up Exactly what the catalogue creates when you pick this template, as the app sets it. Every item stays editable. - **Meeting type**: One-on-one. One person books a time with one host. - **Lengths**: 60 or 90 minutes, the first being the default. Each length can carry its own price, and a meeting can offer up to 12 lengths from 5 minutes to 24 hours. - **Where**: In person: add your address in the editor; bookers see it in the confirmation. Add up to 11 places and let bookers choose. - **Hours**: Every day, 9:00 to 18:00, in your platform's time zone. Bookers see the times in their own zone unless you lock the page to yours, which suits in-person meetings. - **Questions**: name, email as fixed fields, then one optional question: “What would you like done?” (short answer). Add up to 30 questions of 13 types, make any required, or let Vonza AI suggest some. - **Rules**: 4 hours' minimum notice, no buffers before or after, no daily cap, and bookers may cancel or reschedule from their email. Change any of them in the Rules panel. - **Look**: The template’s own accent colour and cover photo, with your logo once you add one. Pick one of 16 colour pairs or your brand colour in Design. - **Description**: The page opens with “Cut, colour or styling with our stylists.” Rewrite it in your own words. ## What to change first A template is a starting point. These are the four settings most sellers change before they publish this page. - **Take a deposit**: Set the price kind on each length to Deposit: part is paid when the client books and the balance is charged a set number of days before the appointment. A cancelled booking stops the balance. Deposit depends on your plan; One-time, paid in full at booking, does not. - **Your salon and your hours**: Add the salon’s address to the In person location and tick “Show before booking”. Replace every day 9:00 to 18:00 with your opening hours, with a different range for late nights, and lock the time zone so clients always see salon time. - **Reminders that stop no-shows**: Keep the confirmation and add a text reminder the day before from your SMS allowance once Text reminders is on; many clients read texts, not email. A follow-up after the end can ask for a 1-to-5 rating, which Analytics averages for you. - **Cancellation deadline**: Set “Bookers can cancel or reschedule” to 1 day or 2 days before in Rules, and put your cancellation policy in the confirmation’s policy note. Add a 15-minute buffer after each appointment for clean-up. ## How to publish and share it From the template to a live booking page people can open, in four steps. 1. **Pick the template**: Templates are part of the new Vonza Scheduling: open it from the Scheduling row marked New in your Vonza admin, start a new meeting and choose Template, then “Hair appointment”. The meeting opens in the editor with everything above in place, and nothing is public until you publish it. 2. **Preview, fix, publish**: Preview the page as Desktop or Phone, work through the “Fix these first” checklist, then Publish. The page lives at /book/hair on your Vonza site; the link ending is yours to change, with a warning that old links break. 3. **Share the page**: The Share dialog gives you the booking link and a QR code, Embed as an Inline frame, a Popup widget or Popup text on any website, One-time links that book once and then stop working, and a button for your Link in bio page. Mark the meeting Featured to show it first on your /book directory, or Secret to keep it off the directory. 4. **Turn on New booking pages**: Bookers see the new booking page once the platform owner turns on “New booking pages” in Booking settings › General. Until then a /book link to an existing meeting opens the classic booking page. Switching on later keeps every booking and manage link. ## Automations that fit this page Scheduling › Automations runs steps when something happens to a booking: 16 triggers, steps such as emails, texts, tags, lists, webhooks and course enrolment, up to 20 steps each. These three fit this meeting. - **Confirm by text**: Trigger “New booking”, then “Text the invitee” with the time and address; texts come out of your SMS marketing allowance. - **Rebook in six weeks**: Trigger “Marked as completed”, wait five weeks, then “Send a booking link” so the client books their next appointment before they notice the roots. - **Chase the balance**: Trigger “Deposit balance due”, then “Email the invitee” with what will be charged and when, and “Payment failed” to “Notify me” if the charge does not go through.

Yes. The Deposit price kind takes a percentage when the client books and charges the balance a set number of days before; a meeting tomorrow or sooner is paid in full at booking. Deposit is available on eligible plans; see pricing. ### Can a cut and a colour have different lengths and prices? Yes. Each length has its own price, so the 60-minute length can be priced for a cut and the 90-minute length for colour. Add up to 12 lengths from 5 minutes to 24 hours, and switch any off without deleting it. ### How do I run a page for every stylist? Each stylist is a host with their own hours and meeting; a team page at /book/team/ lists everyone in one link. Or create a Round robin meeting so a booking goes to the next free stylist. ### Can clients send a photo of the style they want? Yes. Add a File upload question: bookers can attach images, PDF, Word or text files up to 10 MB, stored privately with the booking. ### What happens when a client does not turn up? Mark the booking as a no-show in Bookings; it counts in Analytics and can trigger an automation such as a rebooking email. With a Deposit, the deposit has already been paid at booking. ### Do my clients see this page today? Templates belong to the new Vonza Scheduling. Clients see the new booking page once the platform owner turns on “New booking pages” in Booking settings › General; until then /book links to existing meetings open the classic page.
