Walk-ins and appointments collide
Booked clients wait while walk-ins get squeezed in. A waitlist plus clear per-barber availability keeps both flowing without arguments at the door.
Booking & scheduling
Barbershop booking software built for walk-ins and regulars
Give every barber their own chair schedule, let regulars rebook in two taps, and keep the walk-in queue moving — all from one link you can put in your Instagram bio.
Built around how barbershops actually work
Regulars want the same barber every time
Clients follow the barber, not the shop. Individual barber pages mean a regular books their person directly instead of hoping.
DMs are a terrible booking system
Bookings buried in Instagram messages get missed and double-booked. One link turns social traffic into confirmed appointments on a real calendar.

Frequently asked questions
What is the best booking app for barbers?
Barbers need per-barber schedules, a link that works from an Instagram bio, and reminders that cut no-shows. BookWave provides all of these on a free plan, with paid tiers when you add more chairs.
Can each barber have their own schedule?
Yes. Every barber gets their own availability and service list, so clients book the specific barber they want and only see that barber’s open slots.
Can I take walk-ins as well as appointments?
Yes. Use the waitlist so walk-in clients register their interest and get slotted into gaps, while booked appointments stay protected.
Is BookWave free to use?
Yes. The Free plan includes an online booking page, up to 30 bookings a month, 3 services, a 15-product shop, and email confirmations — no credit card required. Paid plans start at $14/month when you need more bookings, staff accounts, or the website builder.
