Avana gives your salon its own online booking page, where clients see your services, prices and free times and book themselves, even when you're closed. Every booking lands straight in your calendar, and you don't need a website.
Facials and treatment courses, each with the right length, booked straight into your calendar.
Gel polish, new sets and maintenance, with a deposit that keeps the chair from sitting empty.
Clients pick their own stylist and book themselves, evenings included.
Full sets and maintenance appointments, in a calendar that never double-books.
A calm calendar with reminders, so clients arrive on time.
Many clients want to book in the evening, when you're not answering the phone. Your booking page takes those bookings for you.
Your services, prices, photos and free times sit on one page under your name. For most salons that's their whole presence online.
No more answering the same question ten times a day between clients. People see what's free and lock it in themselves.
On your own page it's just you, with no salon down the road listed next to you. No commission comes off your prices.
You add your services and hours in Avana, share one link, and clients book from it on any phone or computer.
Each service gets a name, a length and a price. Avana then works out which times still fit, so a three-hour balayage never lands in a one-hour gap.
You get your own link with your salon name in it. Put it in your bio, send it in a message and print it as a QR code by your mirror.
Your page is open day and night. A client picks a time, you get a notification, and the appointment is in your calendar before you've even read it.
Your page brings in bookings on its own. Add one of these and it also wins back hours you'd otherwise have lost.
The confirmation goes out after booking and the reminder before the appointment. If it no longer suits, the client reschedules and your slot is free again.
The client picks the time and pays the deposit in the same step, with no payment request afterwards. If nobody comes, you keep the deposit.
Someone asks in your DMs what something costs. The assistant answers with your price and your free times, and one tap opens your booking page with everything filled in.

An online booking page is the part of your booking system that clients see: your own page where they book an appointment themselves. They see your services, prices and free times, pick a moment and get an instant confirmation. In Avana every salon gets a page in its own name, and every booking goes straight into your calendar.
No. Your Avana booking page stands on its own and is the only online presence many salons need. If you already have a website, you can add booking to it with the booking widget.
You can set up your booking page in Avana in an afternoon: add your services, enter your hours and share your link. There's nothing to install and you don't have to wait for anyone's approval.
Yes, your Avana booking link is made for that. Put it in your bio, send it in a message or print it as a QR code for your mirror. Anyone who taps it can book straight away in their browser.
Your Avana booking page is part of every plan, starting at £15.99 a month, VAT included, with no commission on your takings. You can try Avana free for 7 days first, and the pricing page shows what each plan includes.
No. On your own booking page it's just you, with your own link and your own clients, and you pay nothing per booking. If your page is set to public, your salon can appear in Avana's listings for your town; if you'd rather not, choose link-only visibility.
Yes. Every Avana booking appears in your calendar straight away and you get a notification. There's nothing to copy across, and two clients can never book the same slot.
Yes, clients can reschedule or cancel in Avana within the rules you set. You decide how late that's allowed and what happens if someone cancels late, in your cancellation policy.
When a client pays online, a small service fee is part of the price they see from the very first screen: 3% of the booking, at least £1.49 and at most £2.29. You pay nothing on your takings, because Avana charges no commission. That small amount from the client is what lets us pay you out in full, so the whole treatment price stays with you.

Avana is an online booking system for salons that gives you your own booking page, where clients book appointments themselves day and night. You add your services, prices and working hours, share one link, and every booking goes straight into your calendar with an automatic confirmation for the client. You don't need your own website and most salons are live in an afternoon. For a solo salon, Avana Business costs £15.99 a month, VAT included, which is £0.53 a day. Avana takes 0% commission on your service prices.
An online booking system for your salon does more than hold a time slot. It shows what you do, what it costs and when you're free, and it takes over the back-and-forth messaging. In Avana every salon gets that page in its own name, whether you run a hair salon, a nail studio, a barbershop or a beauty salon.
The big difference from a marketplace is who the client belongs to. On a marketplace you're in a list next to the salons around you, and a share of bookings goes to the platform. Your Avana page sits on your own link, your client details stay yours and we take nothing from your service price. How clients pay online in advance is covered under payments, and for long services you can ask for a deposit.
If you work alone, this is often all you need: your link in your bio, a QR code at your desk and your calendar on your phone. As you grow, you add an extra pair of hands or build booking into your own site with the booking widget. The pricing page shows what comes with each plan.
An online booking page is a page of your own where clients choose a service and a time without you having to be there. They see what you do, what it costs and when you're available, and they book. You need one as soon as you notice you're answering messages about free slots between clients, or losing people because you could only reply in the evening.
Avana is made for the independent salon: the hairdresser, nail tech, beauty therapist, barber or massage therapist who often works alone. Every salon gets a page with its own link. Whatever clients book appears in your calendar at once, they get a confirmation automatically, and the same slot can never be taken twice. If you already have a website, add booking to it with the booking widget.
Start with what you offer and when you're there, and share your link last. That way nobody lands on an empty page. In Avana it's five steps, on your phone or laptop.
First add your services with a price and a length. Then set your opening hours for each day, including your break. Check your name, photos and description on your page settings, and add your address and town, because your page isn't online until it has a location. Make one test booking yourself, exactly as a client would. If everything looks right, copy your link and put it in your bio. Online payments aren't needed to start; switch them on later if you want to take a deposit.
Whatever a client wants to know before committing to a time: what you do, roughly what it costs and what your work looks like. A missing price or a list without photos makes people hesitate, and when they hesitate they message you anyway.
A nail tech puts photos of their own sets in the portfolio and says how long an infill takes. A hairdresser who charges by length shows a "from" price for colour. A beauty therapist with a new treatment adds intake questions, so you know what to expect. To tell clients something like where to park, write a short welcome message; your cancellation rules and how clients pay are added to the page automatically.
You decide, with three settings. Public means your page can be found in search engines and in Avana's listings for your town, and anyone can book. Link-only means your page can't be found but anyone with your link can book. Private takes your page offline so nobody books online, while your calendar and client list keep working.
Most new bookings come through places your clients already are. Put your link in your Instagram bio and your Google Business Profile, send it to your regulars and display the QR code at your desk, so people paying can book their next visit straight away. If you get lots of questions in your DMs, Avana Connect answers them with your free times.
