Eight parts, and why they exist

The calendar runs in your browser and does not go back to the server on every click. Moving from day to day is instant, even with eight columns open.

A service with development time becomes two blocks: the working block and the waiting block. The waiting block keeps the chair occupied and leaves you free, so those thirty minutes are genuinely usable instead of simply blocked.

• Drag and drop with the mouse or with a finger
• Four to eight columns side by side — treatment rooms and chairs included
• Live across every device in the salon, with no refreshing
• Holidays, breaks and blocks belong in the calendar, not in your client list

Almost half of all appointments come in through that page. It is not a side issue but your shop window: fast, in your colours, and on your own domain.

More important still: it removes the three reasons a client picks up the phone anyway.

• Service names in plain language — “NL Women” means nothing to a client
• Waiting list that lets the client know as soon as something frees up
• Call-back request for those who would rather not book themselves
• Confirmation and reminder by email, automatically
• Your own domain, so your booking link and your QR codes stay yours

Every till line carries the member of staff who did the work. Turnover per person is therefore right without anyone having to piece it together afterwards.

The till journal is unalterable by construction from the outset: sequence numbers without gaps, a chain of control across the receipts, and a correction that is a counter-entry rather than a quiet edit. Should the certified till system ever become compulsory for hairdressers as well, nothing will need rebuilding.

• Bancontact through the terminal, cash, gift voucher or a combination
• Gift vouchers with partial redemption and a remaining balance
• VAT calculated per till line, not on the total
• End-of-day close, invoices and an export for your accountant
• Peppol e-invoicing for your business clients (compulsory in Belgium since 2026)

The raw text is always kept, exactly as it was typed. Alongside it we read the text out into structure: section, brand, product, grams, developer.

That makes three things possible that were not before: deducting the use from your backbar stock, showing the formula on the iPad beside the chair, and letting the client see her own colour history in the portal.

• Full history per visit, across all the years
• Photographs, notes and allergy information on the same record
• Printable, even where an old notation is not recognised
• Never throwing data away because the software did not understand it

A negative stock is not a typing error but a trail: a delivery that never got booked in, a sale without a counter-entry, or backbar use counted nowhere. Which is why HairConnect keeps the movements per product and not just a number.

So you see not only that something is going wrong, but also where.

• Book in deliveries per supplier, checked against the delivery note
• Backbar use that follows from the colour formula
• An order suggestion based on what you actually sell
• Stocktake with a count and a variance list

Working patterns per member of staff, a clock-in terminal for those who have to clock in, and leave in the same calendar as the appointments. Whoever is not working is not bookable online either. You set that once, not twice.

• Working patterns from 24 to 40 hours, alternating weeks included
• Clock-in terminal on the iPad in the salon
• Leave, sickness and training as absence in the calendar
• A different duration per service, per member of staff

The figures you need daily or monthly are ready and waiting: turnover per member of staff, per service and per category, occupancy, no-shows, product sales and till differences.

Everything can be exported towards your bookkeeping, without a detour through a spreadsheet.

• End-of-day close that matches your till journal
• Turnover and performance per member of staff
• Occupancy rate per day and per member of staff
• Export for the accountant

Your client sees her own appointments, moves them within your rules, updates her details and looks back at her colour history. Every question she answers herself is a phone that does not ring.

• View, move or cancel appointments within the notice period you set
• Update her own details and preferences — GDPR-proof straight away
• Colour history and products bought previously
• Gift voucher balance
