For Nail Technicians

Booking software that respects your time — and your artistry.

Services from 30 minutes to 2 hours, buffer time between clients, per-client notes with photos, and SMS reminders that keep your chair full. Designed for nail techs who are too busy to answer the phone.

Features that fit the way you work

Variable-duration services

A basic mani is 30 minutes. A full set with nail art is 2 hours. Generated-slot mode calculates availability from the actual service length — no overlaps.

Buffer time between clients

Configurable gap between appointments for cleanup, sanitation, and setup. Your schedule accounts for reality, not just back-to-back theory.

Per-client notes and preferences

Record nail shape, preferred colours, allergies, and reference photos. Pull up a client's history before they sit down.

SMS reminders that reduce gaps

Automated reminders 24 hours and 2 hours before. Clients confirm or cancel — either way, you know early enough to fill the slot.

Gift vouchers

Sell gift vouchers for specific services or dollar amounts. Unique codes, PDF delivery, automatic tracking. A reliable revenue stream, especially around holidays.

Waitlist auto-fill

When a client cancels, BookAndGo offers the freed slot to matching waitlist entries. Your chair stays full without you lifting a finger.

Made for every shape of nail technicians

Solo nail tech — home studio

Running your own space. Instagram bio booking link, buffer time between clients, Stripe deposits for long appointments, per-client notes for repeat visitors.

Nail bar with multiple techs

Three to six nail technicians under one roof. Per-tech calendars, service specialisation (acrylics vs gel vs SNS), shared booking page.

Mobile nail services

You travel to the client. BookAndGo schedules travel-time buffers automatically and sends the client a confirmation with your estimated arrival.

Frequently asked

Can I set different durations for different nail services?

Yes. Every service has its own duration and price. A quick gel polish might be 30 minutes; a full acrylic set with art could be 2 hours. Slots generate accordingly.

How does buffer time work?

Set a buffer (e.g. 15 minutes) in your availability settings. BookAndGo adds it after every appointment so you have time to clean and prep.

Can I save client preferences and photos?

Yes. Each client record supports free-text notes. Record preferred shapes, colours, allergies, and any details you want to remember.

Do I need the Professional plan for SMS?

Outbound SMS reminders are available from Starter tier. The conversational SMS booking bot requires Professional or above.

Can I take deposits for long appointments?

Yes. Stripe Connect lets you charge a deposit at booking. Reduces no-shows on those 90-minute-plus appointments.
