FOR HAIRDRESSERS & HAIR STYLISTS
The booking app built for mobile and independent hairdressers
Colour that needs 30 minutes to develop. A drive across town between clients. A mum who wants highlights and a daughter who needs a trim. Bookywooky is the smart diary that understands how a hairdresser's day really works, so you can stop fighting your calendar.
Free Pro trial for new accounts · no payment details needed · no commission on your appointments
Emily's cut fits inside Sophie's development time — one visit, no extra travel.
DEVELOPMENT TIME YOU CAN ACTUALLY USE
Colour timings and development time, built in
Most booking apps see a root tint as one 90-minute block. Bookywooky knows it's application, development and finish — and that the 30 minutes in the middle are usable. Multi-stage appointments show exactly when your hands are free, so a quick cut can fit inside a colour's development time instead of you waiting it out.
Root Tint · 90 min · 30 min development — with Emily’s cut fitted in the middle.
REAL TIMINGS FOR REAL CLIENTS
Every client's real timing and price
A root tint on long, thick hair with a double application is not the same as regrowth only. Set personalised durations and prices for each client, so your diary books the time each person actually takes — and loyal client rates are held without you having to remember them.
Three clients, one service, three honest slots in the diary.
TRAVEL
For mobile hairdressers, travel is part of the appointment
Bookywooky knows where you're starting from, where your client lives and how long the drive realistically takes at that time of day. Travel time is protected automatically, so nobody can book into it — including your clients. Move an appointment and the journey recalculates. No more postcode maths in your head.
Working from home or renting a chair? Set up as many working locations as you need, each with its own hours.
HOUSEHOLDS
The whole family, one visit
Highlights for her, a cut for her daughter, a trim for her son. Household bookings keep everyone in the same house together, so you can book them as one visit, at one address, with no extra travel — and fit the quick cuts inside the colour's development time.
CLIENT RECORDS
Colour formulas, patch tests and notes, all with the client
Keep each client's colour formulas, before-and-after photos, patch test dates, consent records and notes — the allergy, the parking, the preferred products — in one place. Give every client a personal service without having to remember everything yourself.
REBOOKING
Know who's due back in the chair
Bookywooky learns how often each client usually visits. If someone who comes every six weeks hasn't booked in eight, you'll know — before they quietly drift to another stylist. Got a last-minute gap? It suggests clients who are due, live nearby and book a service that fits the time you have.
ASK BOOKYWOOKY
INCLUDED IN PRORun your diary by talking to it
With Bookywooky Pro, just ask. It checks your diary, drive times, each client's real service duration and your finish time, then offers slots that genuinely work — and it can create and move appointments for you.
- “Can I fit Sophie in for highlights this week?”
- “Book Sarah in for a root tint on Thursday.”
- “Move my 2pm to tomorrow.”
- “What have I got tomorrow?”
CLIENTS
Easy for your clients too
Your clients get their own Bookywooky app to request appointments, see what's booked, book alongside family members and get reminders with your address. Every request lands in your diary already checked against your travel and timings — accept it in one tap.
FAQ
Questions from hairdressers
Is Bookywooky only for mobile hairdressers?
No. It's especially useful if you travel to clients, but it works just as well from a home salon or a rented chair. You can set up several working locations, each with its own hours.
Can it handle colour development time?
Yes. Multi-stage appointments split a service into application, development and finish, so Bookywooky knows when your hands are free and can fit shorter appointments into development time.
Can I record colour formulas and patch tests?
Yes. Each client record holds colour formulas, notes, photos, consent records and patch test dates.
Can clients book appointments themselves?
Clients use the Bookywooky client app to request appointments. Each request is checked against your travel and timings, and you approve it before it goes in your diary.
Does Bookywooky take commission on my appointments?
No. Bookywooky doesn't take commission on your appointments.
How much does it cost?
There are two plans, Standard and Pro. Pricing will be confirmed at launch, and new accounts start with a free Pro trial with no payment details needed.
