Guides
Deposits, no-shows, and getting started.
Written for the barber who is tired of empty chairs — not for a salon software brochure.
Get started with ChairHold
Hours, menu, hold percent, Payments, then the QR. The same three steps as in the app.
Barber no-show deposits that actually hold
A reminder text is not a hold. A prepaid deposit is. How to set percent and cancel window.
How to take a haircut deposit
Percent vs a flat hold, what to tell the client, and why it is not a gift card.
A Booksy alternative for barbers
Keep the client list. Skip the marketplace feed. Flat shop fee, no commission on the haircut.
