For hair and beauty salons

Salon booking that fits your day.

Clients book a stylist and a time from their phone, and walk-ins join a live queue that fits around the appointments. You run the whole day from one screen.

How booking works at your salon

  1. 01

    Share your booking link

    Put it in your Instagram bio and WhatsApp replies, or print the QR code for the counter. No app for clients to download.

  2. 02

    Clients pick a stylist and a time

    They choose the service and the stylist they want, then a free slot from tomorrow up to a week ahead. Each slot fits the service's length, so a colour never runs into the next client.

  3. 03

    Walk-ins fill the gaps

    On the day, booked clients check in with their phone number. Walk-ins join the same line and are fitted in around the appointments.

Swap the appointment book and DMs for one schedule

  • BeforeBookings arrive by DM and phone, and someone has to answer each one

    Clients book a free slot themselves, at any time of day

  • BeforeA two-hour colour and a quick blow-dry get the same slot in the book

    Each service has its own length, so slots fit what's actually booked

  • BeforeWalk-ins are turned away when the book looks full

    Walk-ins join the queue and see a real wait estimate around the bookings

  • BeforeA stylist's day off gets booked by mistake

    Days off and planned breaks are blocked before anyone can book them

Salon booking questions

Running a shop with walk-ins? Start with our queue guide.

What is a salon booking system?

Software that lets clients book a service, a stylist and a time online, instead of by phone or DM. Waqti also runs a walk-in queue, so salons that take both can manage them in one place.

Can clients book a specific stylist?

Yes. Clients pick the stylist they want when they book, and only see times that stylist is free. Walk-ins can choose a stylist too, or join the Fast lane and see whoever is free first.

How far ahead can clients book?

From tomorrow up to a week ahead, on the days you've published. Slots follow your opening hours, each service's length, and your team's breaks and days off, so nobody gets double-booked.

What happens if a client is late?

Check them in on time and they keep their slot. If they arrive late, they join the queue as a walk-in, so the next client's appointment isn't pushed back.

Do my clients need to download an app?

No. Clients open your link or scan your QR code, and book in their phone's browser. It works on any phone.

How much does it cost?

RM49 a month per salon, or RM490 a year, with every stylist included. There's a 14-day free trial and no card needed to start.
