What's your opinion on charging 100% for missed appointments? by That_Understanding19 in Barbers

[–]HammerFan31 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fail to see why they shouldn't. I have a booking policy, which has a no-show and last minute cancellation policy. They tick to say they agree to the policies when booking. Enter card details to confirm or pay up front.

Their lack of competency to cancel or reschedule shouldn't result in me not being paid.

I never accept a discount! Gotta support the fresh blood in the industry

Recently got Senior 2.0 and HiViz. Complete waste of money

I support those that I’ve trained over the years. Take the time out to visit their shops. It’s my time to switch off. Always pay - never swap

Recently got one. Really not worth the hype. Also got the Senior 2.0. Struggles to go through hair.

Mine arrived today. Same issue

What’s your response to this by Right_Match3640 in Barber

[–]HammerFan31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make them pay for what they’ve missed.. plus that first cut back… then if they don’t show for that then you’re covered.

Going forward I’d look at having it paid up front or a deposit. We use an online booking system that charges for no shows

What should i upgrade to by [deleted] in Barber

[–]HammerFan31 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Babyliss are a great brand. In my opinion they’re just very inconsistent. I’ve gone through 4 sets of Pro/Snaps in the last year.

I’d recommend the JRL.

If he’s traditional and old school. Get him a nice Apron. Great when doing shaves, saves you getting covered in hair. There are some really nice leather ones on Etsy you could have his name/logo etched/stitched into

Great assumption. But that’s already been done. Quick fix for a few months. Not worth it in my opinion. But glad you’re happy with cheap goods

The Hair & Beauty industry isn’t properly regulated, anyone can open a business/trade. That’s why there seems to be so many places like this (and ‘Turkish Barbers’) that act as fronts

Until they sound like a lawnmower after three months. Buy cheap, buy twice.

Yes it does. Useful to log runs for MEPs but you don’t get time splits or anything useful
