What is SalonKit?

SalonKit is the WebologyWORX website and booking platform for hair salons, barbershops, nail studios and salon-spas. Clients book a real open time with a specific stylist or “anyone available,” pay deposits with PayPal or Venmo, join the walk-in line from their phone, and buy gift cards that never expire. Salons that already use Square, Vagaro, Boulevard, Fresha, Booksy or GlossGenius can connect every Book button to that system instead.

Why SalonKit

Built for how salons and barbershops work.

Real times, not requests

Availability is calculated from schedules, hours, time off and clean-up time. Double-booking can’t happen.

Fewer no-shows

Deposits, a cancellation policy clients agree to, reminders and self-service rescheduling.

Your design, not theirs

Booking, menu, team and gallery all flow into a site designed around your brand.

Keep your booking software

Already on Square, Vagaro or Boulevard? One setting points every Book button there.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

I already use Square, Vagaro or Boulevard. Can I keep it?

Yes. Flip one setting and every Book button on your site sends clients to your current system. You can link the whole site, link individual stylists, services or locations, or embed your provider’s widget. Switching providers later doesn’t require a redesign.

Can clients book “anyone available”?

Yes. Clients can pick a specific stylist or “anyone available,” and SalonKit balances the day across your team.

Can I require deposits?

Yes — for every booking, selected services, or only new clients, as a flat amount or a percentage. Clients pay with PayPal, Venmo or a card through PayPal.

Does SalonKit handle walk-ins?

Yes. Your site shows a live wait-time estimate, clients can check in online or on an in-shop tablet, and staff manage the line from a front-desk queue.

Do gift cards expire?

No. SalonKit gift cards never expire, which keeps you clear of state gift-card expiration laws. Clients can check their balance online.

Are there per-stylist fees?

No. Each salon gets its own installation on standard hosting, with no per-stylist or per-booking fees to the platform.
