Can I set different availability for different days or locations?

Yes. You control your availability per day and can set different hours for different locations if you're mobile. The booking portal reflects your live schedule.

Can I add buffer time between appointments?

Yes. Buffer time (for room reset, equipment prep, or travel between clients) is configurable per treatment. It prevents any two appointments from being booked back-to-back without that buffer.

How do I manage holidays?

Block holiday dates in your calendar. Affected client bookings are automatically cancelled and clients offered the next available slot.

Does the system handle treatments of different lengths?

Yes. Each treatment has its own duration. The calendar allocates the correct time block for every appointment type automatically.

Can I prevent same-day bookings?

Yes. Set a minimum advance notice period (e.g. 24 hours). Same-day bookings are blocked in the portal unless you override the setting.

Is it suitable for mobile beauticians?

Yes. Mobile beauticians can set travel buffers, define availability per area, and share their booking link on social media. Clients book and pay upfront — you just show up.

Can I view my whole schedule in one place?

Yes. The admin dashboard shows a weekly view of all confirmed appointments, with treatment details, client information, and payment status at a glance.

Beauty Scheduling Software

Beauty scheduling software manages your appointment calendar, availability, treatment durations, and client bookings in a single system — replacing manual coordination via calls, texts, and social media. Bizzly's scheduler is payment-integrated — it only shows bookable slots to clients who have paid upfront or hold an active membership, so every slot on your calendar is confirmed and paid.

What is Beauty Scheduling Software?

Scheduling software handles the operational complexity of running a treatment business — varying treatment lengths, a mix of one-off and membership clients, and multiple locations if you're mobile.

✓ Shows real-time availability per treatment type
✓ Accounts for treatment durations and set-up/clean-down time between bookings
✓ Clients reschedule within your cancellation window without contacting you
✓ Mobile beauticians can set availability per location or travel zone
✓ Sends automated WhatsApp and email reminders 24 hours before every appointment

Good scheduling software means your appointment book is always accurate, your time is protected, and your clients always know what to expect.

The problems beauty scheduling software solves

Manual workarounds that cost beauty businesses hours every week.

Juggling client bookings manually across locations

Mobile beauticians working across different client locations, or practitioners with a small studio and home visits, need a single calendar that tracks everything.

Treatments running over and clashing with the next appointment

Without set-up and clean-down buffer times built into the schedule, back-to-back appointments inevitably overrun and knock the whole day out of sync.

Clients not showing up and the slot going to waste

Without automated reminders, a meaningful percentage of clients forget their appointment. A 24-hour WhatsApp reminder reduces no-shows dramatically.

Taking late-notice bookings that don't leave prep time

Without a minimum booking notice, clients book same-day treatments that don't allow adequate preparation or travel time. The scheduling system enforces your minimum notice automatically.

How Bizzly works

From sign-up to your first paid booking in under 15 minutes.

Choose your industry Launch Pack

Pick the pre-configured template for your industry. Subscription plans, booking calendar, and Stripe payments are already set up, just add your services and rates.

Customer pays first, then books

A customer subscribes or buys a session pack. Stripe processes the payment. Bizzly creates their quota. They can now book sessions up to their limit.

Calendar enforces quota automatically

The booking calendar only shows slots to customers who have available quota. No double-bookings, no unpaid slots, no manual checking, the system handles it.

The Solution

How Bizzly handles beauty scheduling software

Purpose-built features for beauty businesses — not bolted-on workarounds.

Per-treatment duration and buffer configuration

Set the exact duration for each treatment (e.g. 90 mins for a 3D lipo session) plus pre- and post-appointment buffer time. The calendar blocks the full required time automatically.

Precise time management

Availability and location management

Set your working hours, days off, and blocked periods. Mobile beauticians can define travel zones and location-based availability. The booking portal only shows open slots.

Flexible availability

WhatsApp appointment reminders

Clients receive a WhatsApp reminder 24 hours before their treatment. You can customise the message and include any preparation instructions for their specific appointment.

Automated reminders

Self-service rescheduling

Clients reschedule from the client portal within your cancellation window. The slot opens back up immediately. Your day adjusts without any messages to you.

Zero reschedule admin

Real-world use cases

How beauty scheduling software works in practice.

Use case 1

Mobile beautician managing a full week of house calls

Set availability per day with travel buffers between appointments. Clients in your area book from your portal and see only the slots that work for your travel schedule.

Use case 2

Aesthetics practitioner with extended treatment times

A full 3D lipo session requires 90 minutes plus 15 minutes for equipment reset. The scheduling system blocks the full duration. No back-to-back conflicts.

Use case 3

Nail studio with two technicians

Each technician has their own calendar and treatment menu. Clients choose their preferred tech or book with whoever is next available. Availability is always live.

Use case 4

Managing training days and supplier visits

Block full days or half-days for CPD training, supplier visits, or equipment maintenance. The booking portal automatically shows those times as unavailable.
