For beauty salons
Colour appointments that overrun, clients who book by DM and disappear, and a retail shelf that only sells when someone is standing in front of it. Vendzi runs all of it on one calendar.

New client record
Illustrative sample — your hours, staff and rooms.
The daily friction
A root touch-up and a full balayage are not the same 60 minutes, so a slot-based booking form either double-books your stylist or wastes half their day.
The booking lives in an Instagram thread that nobody checks on a Saturday, and the client is surprised when there is no record of it.
A three-hour colour block lost at short notice is the whole afternoon. Without a deposit there is nothing to discourage it.
Formula, developer, the toner mix that came out slightly warm — it lives in one stylist’s head, and it walks out of the door with them.
How Vendzi handles it
Everything below is in the product today — not a roadmap item.
Each service carries its own duration and each stylist their own hours, so a balayage takes a balayage slot. Availability is derived from the calendar, and a slot is claimed atomically — two clients cannot take the same chair.
One link in your bio that shows real openings and confirms instantly. The appointment lands on the calendar and on the client record with no one retyping it.
Take a deposit at booking for long or high-value appointments, and track no-shows against the client record so you can decide who pays up front next time.
Free-text notes on every client record for the mix, the reaction and the thing they asked you not to do again — visible to whoever is doing their hair.
The shampoo you just used goes on the same ticket at the counter, through the POS, on the same client record. No separate till, no end-of-day reconciliation.
Run Google Ads from the same dashboard and see which campaign produced the appointments, not just the clicks.
A day on Vendzi
One record follows the client from the ad to the rebooking — nothing is retyped, nothing lives in a DM thread.
Morning
The client picks a real opening with the practitioner they want. The slot is claimed atomically, so it cannot be sold twice.
Midday
A deposit guards the long treatments. The short ones stay frictionless — deposits are set per service.
Before
Automatic reminders go out before the appointment, so the forgotten visit is the exception rather than the pattern.
During
History, notes and preferences land on one client record, with role-based access deciding who can read what.
After
Services and retail go on one ticket at the counter, the payment is recorded against the client, and the next visit is booked.
The parts you will live in
Same subscription underneath. These are the rooms you will spend the day in.
Real availability, not a request form
Clients see the slots your staff can actually work, and a slot is claimed atomically — two people cannot book the same chair.
Every visit, attached to a person
Appointments, orders and payment history land on one client timeline, so you know who is returning and what they had last time.
The counter, on the same system
Ring up a walk-in, take payment, email a receipt and close the day — without a second till that never agrees with the books.
Your ad spend, next to your bookings
Manage Google Ads from the same dashboard as the appointments those ads produce, so you can see which campaign actually paid for itself.
Questions
If yours is not here, ask when you sign up — you will get a person.
Availability is per staff member and clients can book with a specific stylist, so a returning client gets the person they asked for.
Yes — deposits are configured per service, so you can protect the three-hour colour and leave a quick trim deposit-free.
Yes. Products, variants and stock run alongside services, and both appear on the client record and in the POS.
Same platform
Same platform underneath. What changes is which parts carry the weight — and nothing is locked in.
