I rent a chair in a salon in Liverpool and I'm wondering if I can use Treatwell separately from the main salon's system. The salon owner uses something different and I don't want to confuse clients. Can you set up Treatwell as an individual without it being tied to the building's address? Has anyone done this as a chair renter?

For multi-staff Trafft is excellent. Each person has their own colour-coded calendar, you can set individual hours and services, and clients book with a specific person or with 'any available' if you prefer. I've got four staff on it and it's really simple to manage from the dashboard.

My clients were pretty resistant at first — a few of them are older and not very tech-savvy. What helped was walking them through the booking link in person the first time. Once they'd done it once they were completely fine. Now I get booking confirmations at 11pm from people I would have thought would never manage it.

I chair-rent and I use Square Appointments completely separately from the main salon. You just set your own location as a general Sheffield address or your own mobile setup. Clients book with you specifically, not the salon. Works really well and the salon owner doesn't even see my diary.

I asked myself this exact question two years ago. Ended up going with Fresha because it had the best free trial and I could test it properly without committing. two years later I'm still on it. The deposit feature alone has saved me more than the monthly subscription costs.
