Salon till: the diary leads
In a salon the problem is not taking money, it is not booking the same slot twice. A salon till is mostly a well-made diary with a cash register behind it.
A diary per stylist, not one shared diary
If three of you work there, you need three columns. One shared paper diary makes you look at the book twice and argue about the five o'clock slot. With a column each, free slots are obvious and get booked without calling anyone.
Services with their duration
Each service needs its own time: a men's cut does not take the same as a full head of highlights. When the service carries its duration, the diary works out where the slot ends and refuses to stack two appointments on top of each other.
Reminders to the customer
A message the day before cuts no-shows sharply. With the till, the reminder goes out by WhatsApp or email without anyone having to call one by one.
Charge from the appointment
When the service is done, you charge straight from the appointment: the service and its price are already there. No more scraps of paper with names and services scribbled on them, where euros go missing.
What actually matters in the till
That it takes cash and card, that the day closes to the right figure, and that you can see what each stylist brought in. That last figure, in a salon with several people, is worth more than any accounting report.
What you do not need
No tables, no kitchen orders, no scales. If your program makes you walk through restaurant screens to charge for a cut, you are using the wrong tool.
