Training rooms
Plan practical sessions by class
Match services to learner level, timetable availability and tutor supervision. Give learners practice with the diary, consultation forms and till.
One system for three settings
Use the same salon workflows in teaching rooms, in your commercial salon and across campuses.
Training rooms
Match services to learner level, timetable availability and tutor supervision. Give learners practice with the diary, consultation forms and till.
Commercial salons
Publish bookable services, send confirmations and reminders, and link client records to checkout, retail sales and stock.
Multi-campus colleges
Set services and availability by site. Set access by role and location. Tutors and managers can then use the records and reports they need.
College salon features
Connect the work learners do in practical sessions with the tools staff use to run the salon.
Appointments
Schedule services around classes, learner availability, rooms and resources. Match bookings to the level of training.
Client records
Keep visit history, notes and digital consultation forms in one client record. Authorised learners and tutors can review it before appointments.
Client communication
Confirm appointments and remind clients before they arrive, helping protect scheduled practical time.
Stock
Use stock control to track products used in treatments and sold at reception. Low-stock alerts help staff reorder before sessions are affected.
Checkout
Let learners practise at the commercial salon till under supervision. Teach service bills, retail sales, payments and vouchers.
Reporting
Review appointments, revenue, product use and learner activity. Use the reports to plan sessions, staffing and supplies.
Multi-campus college salon management
Set up each campus around its own services, hours and teaching teams. With multi-location salon software, authorised managers can review activity across sites.
Set the services, opening hours and teams for each campus or commercial salon.
Plan hairdressing, barbering and beauty therapy around their own classes, learners and treatment areas.
Give learners, tutors and reception staff access appropriate to their role and campus.
Compare appointments, revenue and stock across locations with the relevant reporting access.
AI salon receptionist
Help public clients book with your college’s commercial salon while reception staff and tutors are busy. With 24-hour call handling configured, callers can book outside reception hours using the salon’s available appointment times.
Connected to your live Salon Manager diary and salon CRM, the AI receptionist can help callers book, check, move or cancel appointments. It uses the availability in your salon software system, keeping phone requests connected with the team’s working day.
Integrated payments for your college commercial salon
Give learners supervised experience of a connected commercial salon checkout. Build the client bill in Salon Manager, then send the final amount to the terminal through SalonPay. Staff can review payments against sales and daily takings.
