Online booking for barbers, built around regulars.
Regulars want the same barber at the same time every few weeks. Give them a link that shows only the times their barber is really free.
The phone rings while the clippers are running
Most barbers take bookings by DM in between cuts. Every message means putting down the clippers, checking the book and typing back, and half the questions are the same: is Danny free Saturday morning?
Messages answered late become customers lost to the shop down the road, and messages answered in a hurry become double bookings in the same chair.
How Timeo takes barbershop bookings
Your booking page lists every service with its time and price: skin fade, beard trim, cut and shave. The customer picks one, picks a barber or lets the shop choose any free barber, and sees only the times that barber has open.
Each barber’s working days come from their own hours, so a barber who starts late on Tuesdays is never offered at 10am. A customer can add a beard trim to the same visit with Add another service.
Put the link in your Instagram bio and on Google, or add a Book now button to your website with the booking widget. Bookings land on the same calendar as walk ins, so the chair is never sold twice.

What customers see
A short page: the service, the barber, a time, their details, then confirm. Each time shows which barber is free, and the customer sees the name before confirming. No app or account needed.
Reminders before the cut include a link to manage the booking, so a customer who cannot make it frees the slot instead of just not turning up.
Questions
Can customers book a specific barber?
Yes, and they only see times when that barber is free. They can also let the shop pick any free barber.
Can one booking include a cut and a beard trim?
Yes. Customers can add another service to the same visit.
Will online bookings clash with walk ins?
No. Walk ins go on the same calendar, so a booked chair is not offered online.
Where do I share the booking link?
Anywhere: Instagram bio, Google Business Profile, WhatsApp, or a Book now button on your website from the booking widget.
