Salon booking on WhatsApp, step by step

Everything reception asks on the phone, collected in the chat: for hair salons, barbers, nail studios, spas and aesthetic studios.

  • Service menu in chat

    Clients choose from your services with prices and durations, grouped as hair, nails, skin or barbering.

  • Choose a stylist

    Offer a specific stylist, barber or therapist, or let the client pick the first one available.

  • Free times as buttons

    Show available days and times as quick replies, so booking takes a few taps instead of a phone call.

  • WhatsApp Flows booking form

    Collect service, staff, date, time, name and notes in one native form inside WhatsApp.

  • Live availability via API

    Connect your booking system or calendar with custom functions so the assistant checks and creates real appointments.

  • Instant confirmation

    Send the booking summary right away and schedule the reminder with an approved WhatsApp template.

  • Handover to reception

    Colour corrections, bridal parties and special requests go to a team member with the full conversation.

  • Branch routing

    Ask for the preferred branch first and route each booking to the right location and team.

WhatsApp Flows

A salon booking form inside WhatsApp

For multi-step bookings, a WhatsApp Flows form keeps everything on one screen: the client picks the service, stylist, date and time, adds a note and submits. Nothing to download, no website to open.

  • Service, stylist, date and time in one form
  • Optional notes such as hair length or allergies
  • Confirmation message sent the moment the form is submitted

FAQ

WhatsApp appointment booking for salons: FAQ

Quick answers to the most common questions.

How do clients book a salon appointment on WhatsApp?

The client sends a message to your WhatsApp number. MonoChat replies with your service menu, then offers stylists and free times as buttons or in a WhatsApp Flows form. The booking is confirmed in the chat and passed to your team or booking system.

Can WhatsApp booking check my stylists' real availability?

Yes. Connect your booking system or calendar with custom functions, webhooks or the API, and the assistant checks free times and creates the appointment during the conversation. Without a connection, it offers the time rules you define and your team confirms.

Can clients choose a specific stylist or barber?

Yes. The flow can ask for a preferred stylist, barber or therapist, show only their free times, or offer the first available team member if the client has no preference.

What happens if the request is too complex for the bot?

Requests such as colour corrections, bridal parties or treatment questions are handed over to a team member in the shared inbox, with the full conversation history, so the client never has to repeat themselves.

Can I keep using the WhatsApp Business app on my phone?

MonoChat connects your number through the official WhatsApp Business API. With WhatsApp Coexistence you can keep the WhatsApp Business app on the same number and add automation and the team inbox on top.
