Lash tech booking software for when both hands are on the tweezers

You spend two hours bent over one pair of eyes, with no hand free for your phone. With Avana, clients book a full set, infills or a lash lift themselves, and the reminder tells them to come without mascara.

Why lash techs choose Avana

What Avana gives you when you do lashes on your own

Avana is booking software for lash techs in the UK who work alone. Clients book full sets, infills and lash lifts online, answer a consultation form before their first visit, and Avana takes no commission on any booking.

Your tweezers never leave your hand

A full set takes two hours of focus and you cannot answer anything while you work. Anyone who wants to know what volume costs or when you are free finds it on your page and books there and then.

An empty bed no longer wipes out an afternoon

If you want, ask for a deposit on full sets. When a client cancels on the day, that amount stays with you and the morning is not a complete loss.

No commission on your volume sets

A fixed monthly price and nothing taken from any appointment. A quick lash lift or a mega volume set, whatever the client pays ends up with you.

Your own page

Clients book while you are mid-set

Your sets, prices and open times live on your own booking page. Add the link to your Instagram bio under your before-and-afters and clients pick a time themselves, even at eleven at night.

  • Classic, hybrid and volume, each with its own time and price
  • Infills, a lash lift and tint or removal as separate services
  • No account needed to book
Before they lie down

Allergies, contacts and old glue: you know before they arrive

Put your own questions in the consultation form, and the answers are on the appointment before the client walks in. If they still have half a set from another studio, you know in advance and can allow time to take it off.

  • Your own questions about allergies, contacts and past reactions
  • A patch test as a short appointment of its own
  • Removing another tech's set as an add-on, with its own time

Patch tests

First-time clients book their patch test before the full set

Many lash techs want a patch test 24 to 48 hours before a first set. Add it as a five-minute service and write a line in the confirmation asking new clients to book it first. Avana does not hold back the full set by itself, so a quick look at your notes before you start is still worth it.

  • A short patch test that clients book themselves
  • Your own sentence in the confirmation for new clients
  • Answers about past reactions on the appointment

Payment

They pay at the end, once the lashes are brushed through

When the set is finished, the client pays in your studio, the way it works now. For a two-hour volume set you can ask for a deposit when they book, so your morning is covered if someone does not show.

  • Paying in your studio, after the set
  • A deposit on full sets, with infills left free
  • Paying online in advance, only if you turn it on
Reminders

On time, and with clean lashes

A confirmation goes out the moment they book, and a reminder the day before with the time, your address and your own prep notes: clean lashes, no mascara, no oil-based products. For clients who never open email, the reminder can go by text too.

  • The reminder goes out the day before without you
  • No mascara, no oils: it is right there in the message
  • By text as well, for clients who skip their email

Regulars

The infill is booked before they leave your room

Extensions need infills every two to three weeks. If you count anything after three weeks as a new set, say so in the description of your infill service, so clients choose the right one. After the appointment they book the next one with a tap, and your client records show last time's curl, length and thickness.

  • Next appointment in one tap, from the QR code by your bed
  • Curl, length and notes for every client
  • If someone drifts away, one tap invites them back
Two at a time

Three pairings that keep your lash bed booked

Avana gives lash techs online booking, deposits, reminders with prep notes and AI replies to Instagram DMs. Switch on two of them together and the sets that now slip away in your DMs land in your calendar instead.

Avana Connect and deposits

"Anything this week?" in your DMs becomes a booked set

Under your latest before-and-after someone asks what a volume set costs and whether you have anything this week. The AI sends back your price and open times, the client picks Saturday morning and pays the deposit. The set is in your calendar when you wake up.

Avana Connect

Your booking page and reminders

No mascara, and on the bed at the right time

The client chooses a time and gets a confirmation with your prep notes straight away. The day before, the reminder repeats them, and anyone who cannot make it moves the set themselves.

Questions lash techs ask about booking software

What's the best booking app for a self-employed lash tech?

Avana is a booking app made for the self-employed lash tech: it knows a full set takes far longer than an infill and gets clients to arrive with clean lashes. Clients book classic, hybrid or volume sets, infills and lash lifts on your own page, answer your questions about allergies and contacts beforehand, and receive your prep notes in the reminder. Your calendar and client records are on your phone, and no commission is taken from your sets. The monthly price is £15.99, VAT included.

How much does a lash booking app cost a month?

Avana costs £15.99 a month, VAT included, for a lash tech who works alone. That includes your booking page, calendar, client records, the consultation form for allergies and contacts, online payments and email reminders. There is no commission on your sets and you can cancel any month. Text reminders are separate, in packs from £4.99.

Can I take a deposit on full sets to stop no-shows?

Yes, Avana lets a lash tech switch deposits on per service, so you might ask for one on a two-hour volume set and not on infills. The client pays the deposit when booking and the rest in your studio afterwards. If they cancel too late or do not turn up, you keep the deposit under your own cancellation policy, and the slot shows as free on your page again.

How do I make sure new lash clients have a patch test first?

In Avana you add a patch test as its own short service so new clients can book it 24 to 48 hours before their first full set. A sentence in your confirmation email reminds them, and your consultation form asks about past reactions before they come in. Avana does not block the full set on its own, so check your notes before you start.

How do I keep a full set and an infill apart in my calendar?

In Avana every lash service has its own length and price, so a volume full set might hold two hours and an infill an hour, and the client picks the right one when booking. If you treat anything after three weeks as a new set, write that in the description of your infill service. Removing another studio's set can be added as an extra with its own time, and after the appointment the client books the next infill with one tap from the QR code by your bed.

Do clients pay in my studio or online?

With Avana, lash clients pay in your studio after the set, by card or cash, as they do now; online payment is only added if you want it. If you ask for a deposit on a full set, that part is paid while booking with a card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. Any service fee for paying online is shown in the price from the start, and what you charge for a set or a lash lift stays the same.

Does Avana work if I rent a room or work from home?

Yes, Avana is made for one lash tech, one bed and one calendar, whether that is a rented room or a studio at home. Working alone, Business at £15.99 a month is all you need. If someone joins you, add them for £5.99 a month with their own hours and services, and clients choose who they book with.

Is there a lash booking app I can try for free?

Yes, Avana has a free 7-day trial for lash techs with no card details, and after that you pay monthly with no notice period. Use that week to set up your sets and your prep notes and share your link, so you see it working before you pay. Your client data stays yours: if you leave, you take your client list with you, and Avana never sells your clients to anyone.

The short answer

What should lash tech booking software do?

Avana is lash tech booking software that knows a volume full set takes two hours and an infill much less, and makes sure clients turn up without mascara. It is built for the lash tech who works alone: clients book classic, hybrid or volume sets, infills or a lash lift themselves, answer your allergy and contact lens questions beforehand and get your prep notes in the reminder. A patch test can be its own short service, each client's record holds last time's curl and length, and you can take a deposit on full sets. It costs £15.99 a month, VAT included, with no commission, and the first 7 days are free.

Software for lash techs

Lash booking software for the lash tech who works alone

If you are looking for lash tech booking software, you probably work alone: a bed in a rented room or a studio at home, two hours quietly bent over one client, and no hand free for the phone. Meanwhile your DMs fill up with "anything this week?" and "how much for volume?". With Avana you answer those once, on your own booking page with your sets and open times, and clients choose a slot there.

Each service gets its own length and price: a classic, hybrid or volume full set, infills, a lash lift and tint, and removing another tech's work as an extra. An infill never eats into the time for a full set, and your calendar shows exactly when the bed is free. The consultation form asks about allergies, contact lenses and earlier reactions, so you know before the client lies down.

Deposits and prep notes

A volume set cancelled in the morning is almost impossible to fill that day. That is why you can ask for a deposit on full sets, and leave it off infills. Email reminders and text reminders go out on their own with your prep notes, and with Avana Connect AI replies to your Instagram DMs with your own prices and times while you work.

Selling your lash training

If you train new lash techs, you can sell your course through the Avana Academy, with the model day in your normal calendar. Avana costs £15.99 a month, VAT included, and nothing comes off your sets. Compare the plans and pricing and pick what fits your studio.
