For natural hair & locs

For hair that needs knowing, not guessing.

Silk press, twist-outs, treatments, starter locs, retwists, interlocking and loc repair. Melan Kair keeps a record of every client's hair, porosity, products and history, so you walk to the chair already knowing what works on them.

The problem

Your best work depends on what you remember.

Natural hair and loc work is a relationship, not a transaction. What you used last time, how her hair reacted, how long since the last retwist: that knowledge is what makes the result good. Keeping it in your head does not scale, and losing it costs you the trust you spent years building.

Client hair records

Porosity, density, scalp notes, sensitivities and what you used last time, kept per client and ready before she sits down.

Consultations as a step

Book a consultation before big changes like starter locs or a first silk press, so expectations are set before the day.

Retwist cycle reminders

Locs need maintenance on a rhythm. Automatic reminders at four, six or eight weeks keep the cycle and keep the client.

Treatments as add-ons

Steam, protein, deep conditioning and trims offered at checkout, so the average appointment grows without a sales pitch.

Accurate durations

A retwist is not a starter set and neither is a silk press. Each carries its own time so the day runs as planned.

Photo history

Keep before and after images against the client record, so progress is visible and your portfolio builds itself.

In practice

The appointment starts before she arrives.

A client books a retwist through your link. Because she has been before, the system already knows her loc maintenance cycle, what you used last time and that her scalp reacts to one particular product. That is on your screen before she walks in, so the consultation is thirty seconds rather than ten minutes of remembering.

You work, the balance settles, and photos go against her record. Six weeks later a reminder goes out that she is due, with a link to book. She rebooks in two taps. Over a year that rhythm is the difference between a client who comes when she remembers and one who comes when she should.

FAQ

Straight answers.

What booking software suits a natural hair salon? +

Natural hair work needs accurate durations per service, client hair records, consultation bookings and maintenance reminders on the retwist cycle. Melan Kair covers all of it, from £30 a month after setup.

Can I keep notes on each client's hair? +

Yes. Porosity, density, products used, sensitivities and past appointments are kept per client, with before and after photos if you want them.

Does it handle loc maintenance cycles? +

Yes. Set the cycle per client or per service and reminders go out automatically when they are due a retwist or interlock.

Can I require a consultation first? +

Yes. Make a consultation a required step before services like starter locs or big changes, so nobody books a four hour appointment on a misunderstanding.

Can I offer treatments as add-ons? +

Yes. Offer steam, protein, deep conditioning or a trim at checkout with their own prices and time, and the average appointment value rises on its own.
