Salon: the stylist sees the booking, not just reception

The setup

Owner Willa fans glow@ out to reception and five stylists. Stylists read between clients on their own phones.

How the mail flows

  1. A client sends reference photos for Saturday colour Tuesday.
  2. Stylist and reception both hold the identical photos within minutes.
  3. The appointment is booked for the right duration, first time.
  4. glow@ keeps the booking record that settles no-show disputes.

Why Sinka fits here

  • Reference photos reach the hands doing the work.
  • Stylists manage their own columns from their own inboxes.
  • Saturday cover is whoever is in — they all see everything.

Watch out for

  • Timing estimates are the product — confirm duration back to the client in writing.
  • Patch-test reminders must be explicit; a copy received is not an allergy test done.
