Gloa for hair salons

THE DAY

The calendar

Set a duration and price for each service. Clients see the same current availability that your team manages.

Every service, its own length

Set a separate duration for a root touch-up, balayage, or cut.

One column per stylist

View the full team schedule or one stylist’s calendar.

Time that is not for clients

Block time for a delivery, holiday, one stylist, or the entire salon.

Walk-ins and the phone

Add walk-ins and telephone bookings at the desk to keep the calendar current.

No duplicate bookings

Once a time is reserved, another client cannot confirm it.

Closed days remain unavailable

Weekly days off and holidays are removed from available booking times.

ONLINE

Your page

Your Gloa page uses your salon name, colours, typefaces, and photographs. The booking button opens your current availability, and galleries can include before-and-after work.

• Full-width galleries and before-and-after work
• Your colours and typefaces, chosen in a live preview
• A QR code for the mirror, the counter and the window
• Your existing website directed to a page that carries only your name
• Services, hours, and current availability in map and search

Hair colour and styling detail.

THE PLATFORM

What Gloa handles

Gloa connects appointment emails, payment terms, client notes, sales, and reporting. Communications use the client’s selected language.

Reminders before every visit

A confirmation when she books, then a reminder the day before and again a few hours ahead, by email.

Payment terms by service

Require a deposit for a full colour and no advance payment for a trim. The terms shown at booking remain attached to the appointment.

Formulas in the client record

Team-only notes appear with the client’s visit history.

Late cancellations and no-shows

Keep or waive the fee shown when the client booked. No fee is kept unless it was disclosed before confirmation.

Tips assigned to the stylist

Counter sales record the tip with the professional who earned it.

Sales reports

Revenue by stylist, by service and by period, taken from the appointments themselves.

YOUR BUSINESS

What stays yours

Your client book

Import your existing list. Matching contact details identify existing clients. Later bulk imports may require review before exemption from introduction fees is confirmed.

Your terms

The cancellation policy shown at booking remains attached to that appointment, even if you change the policy later.

Your payouts

Card payments go to your account on your payout schedule. Gloa does not hold your funds.

ANSWERS

Common questions

Can I ask for a deposit on colour and nothing on a cut?

Yes. Deposit, full payment or a card kept on file is chosen service by service, and the client sees which one applies before she confirms.

Do my formulas and notes stay private?

They are written by your team and read by your team. A client never sees a private note on her file.

Can each stylist have her own calendar?

Each professional has a calendar column, working name, and client conversations. Roles control access to schedules, clients, and financial information.

What if I rent a chair to someone?

A guest artist or chair renter can work at your salon for a set period without payroll access or access to your financial records.
