Barbershop booking software that lets clients choose their barber
Most barbershops run their diary out of Instagram DMs, WhatsApp and a phone that rings mid-fade. Booknexo gives your shop a booking page where clients pick a service, pick their barber, and see only the times that barber is actually free — so the chair fills without you stopping to reply.
How Booknexo works for a barbershop
You list your services — skin fade, scissor cut, beard trim, kids' cut — each with its own length and price. Each barber gets their own working hours, breaks and days off, and their own list of services they offer. When a client books, Booknexo only offers times where that barber is free for the full length of that service, including any buffer you set for cleaning down between clients.
Clients who don't mind who cuts their hair can choose any available barber. Regulars can stick with the same person every time. Every client gets a confirmation and a reminder by email, and a private link to move or cancel their own booking within the cancellation window you set — which is most of the phone tag gone.
The QR code is made for the counter and the window: walk-ins who find the chairs full can book the next free slot from their phone instead of walking out.
Features that matter here
Choose a barber, or anyone free
Per-barber services, hours and breaks. Clients see real availability, never a double booking.
QR code for the counter
Print it for the mirror, the window or a business card. Scanning opens your booking page.
Reminders that cut no-shows
Email confirmation and reminder on every plan, sent under your shop's name. Text reminders with your own Twilio account.
SMS: Growth and up
Deposits for long or late slots
Take a deposit or full payment through your own Stripe account, so a no-show still pays for the chair.
Starter and up
No-show flagging
Clients who reach the number of no-shows you set are flagged automatically. With payments switched on, you can require a deposit from flagged clients.
Repeat clients on a schedule
A client can book every three or four weeks in one go as a recurring series.
Growth and up
Staff commission and payroll
See what each barber earned and what they are owed, and export it to CSV.
Growth and up
Why it helps
- Fewer interruptions mid-cut. Bookings arrive already confirmed. You stop answering messages between clients.
- Your shop, not a marketplace listing. The booking page carries your name, logo and photos. Clients book with you, not with an app that also shows them the shop down the road.
- Your client list stays yours. Every client who books goes into your own customer list, which you can export at any time.
Pricing
A barber working alone can start on the free plan (one person, up to 100 bookings a month). A two-chair shop fits Starter; three to five barbers is Growth, which adds text reminders, recurring bookings and staff payroll.

Good to know before you choose
- — There is no walk-in queue or ticket system — walk-ins book the next free slot like anyone else.
- — Calendar sync is one-way: your Booknexo bookings can appear in Google, Apple or Outlook Calendar, but events added there do not block time in Booknexo.
- — Text and WhatsApp reminders need your own Twilio or WhatsApp Business account; email works straight away.
Frequently asked questions
Can clients choose a specific barber?
Yes. Each barber has their own services, hours and breaks, and clients can pick a named barber or the first one available. Booknexo only offers times when that barber is free for the full service.
Is there a free booking system for barbers?
Yes. Booknexo's free plan covers one barber and up to 100 bookings a month, with a booking page, email reminders and a QR code. There is no commission on bookings on any plan.
Can I take deposits to stop no-shows?
Yes, from the Starter plan. Payments run through your own Stripe account, so the money goes to you, not to Booknexo.
How long does it take to set up a barbershop?
Most shops can add their services, barbers and opening hours in an afternoon. You can share the booking link as soon as your first service and opening hours are in.
