How it works

Someone calls
You're with a client and can't answer.
It forwards
After a few rings, the call goes to your Chairline number instead of voicemail.
They get your link
A short greeting, then one text with your booking link.
Replies reach you
If they text back, it goes straight to your cell.

Your number stays the same. Booksy, Square, Vagaro or any booking link works.

What you get

One text per caller, never twice in a day
Replies forwarded to your cell
A monthly count of calls caught
A real person when something needs changing
No new app to learn
No contract

From the owner

Every missed call is somebody who wanted to sit in your chair. Most of them won't leave a voicemail. They'll just call the next shop.

I grew up around this trade. My grandmother cut hair behind the chair, taught barbering at a community college until she retired, and still owns her own barbershop and salon. So I've seen the side of the business that happens away from the chair: the scheduling, the no-shows, and the phone that rings while your hands are full.

I set Chairline up for you, test it with you on your own phone, and I'm the person you text if anything needs changing. The founding price is for the first shops that sign on.

Questions

Do I have to change my number?: No. Unanswered calls forward to a line set up for your shop. Your number stays yours.
Will my regulars get spammed?: No. Each caller gets one text, at most once a day. Anyone who replies STOP never gets another.
What does the text say?: Something like "Sorry we missed you at [your shop]! Book here: [your link]." You approve the wording first.
How long until it's on?: About 2–3 weeks, mostly waiting on carrier approval, which every business texting service needs. Your part is a short form and 30 minutes on your phone.
What if I want to cancel?: Tell me. I turn off the forwarding and stop billing. Your shop number is never touched.
Do you work in my area?: Yes. Setup can be done in person or over the phone.

Never miss a booking again
