You Don’t Need to Be “Techy”
If you can post an Instagram story, you can set up online booking. The “I’m not a tech person” thing? That’s a story told by platforms that made their software needlessly complicated. You need ten minutes and a cup of tea.
Every time a client has to DM you and wait for a reply, there’s a chance they book somewhere else. Online booking isn’t a nice-to-have. It’s how clients expect to book in 2026.
Four Steps, Ten Minutes
-
Create your account
Sign up with email or Google. Pick your salon name — it becomes your link: tavix.app/your-salon-name. Done in 90 seconds.
-
Add your services
List what you offer. For each service: name, price, duration. No categories, no complicated menus. Three minutes for most salons.
-
Set your availability
Tick when you work. Untick days off. Extend hours for late nights. Block out lunch. Clients only see slots when you’re available.
-
Share your link
Drop it in your Instagram bio, WhatsApp status, Facebook page. Clients can now book you 24/7 without sending a single DM.
That’s it. You could do it between clients on a quiet afternoon.
What Changes Immediately
The DM dance
Client DMs you. You reply 3 hours later. They’re busy now. Back and forth for two days. Maybe they book. Maybe they don’t.
Tap, pick, booked
Client sees your link. Picks a service, chooses a time, confirms. 45 seconds. You didn’t have to do anything.
“But I Like the Personal Touch”
Online booking doesn’t replace relationships — it handles the admin so you can focus on the personal stuff when they’re in your chair. Nobody wants a personal touch when booking at 10pm on a Sunday. They want convenience. Save the warmth for the appointment.
It’s Simpler Than You Think
Tavix was built for independent UK salons. Four steps. No training videos. No onboarding calls. Sign up, add services, set hours, share your link. Your booking page will be live before your tea goes cold.
Your clients are already looking for you online. Give them somewhere to book.
