Wig makers: schedule wig maintenance appointments
How wig and hairpiece makers can schedule maintenance online: drop-off and while-you-wait services, regular cleaning cycles and collection slots. €5/month.
5 min read
A wig needs regular care: cleaning, reconditioning, restyling, small repairs. Some clients leave it with you for a few days; others wait while you refresh the style. With Book, each type of maintenance becomes a service, drop-offs are capped by what your workshop can handle, and clients book collection when it's ready.
Services by type of care
On Book, each service has a name, a price and an optional description, all shown on your public page. Each slot belongs to one service, sits within one day and has its own capacity.
| Service | Example slot | Places | Example price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Wig drop-off for cleaning and care | 15 min | 4 | €45 |
| Restyle while you wait | 45 min | 1 | €35 |
| Hairpiece or topper refit | 45 min | 1 | €40 |
| Repair assessment | 20 min | 1 | Free |
| Wig collection | 10 min | 3 | Free |
Durations, places and prices are examples: set your own.
Drop-offs capped by your workshop
A short drop-off slot with a few places caps how many wigs come in each day. Each online booking takes one place, and a full slot leaves your page, so you never promise a turnaround you can't keep. Say in the description how many days the care takes and whether the client should bring a spare.
While-you-wait services
For a quick restyle or refit, use one place per slot and a private space if you have one. Slots of different services can overlap, so drop-offs and while-you-wait sessions can run at the same time.
Regular care cycles
Clients who wear their wig daily need care on a regular rhythm. At each visit, book the next one from your bookings list at the interval you recommend. First and last name are enough; with their email, the client gets a confirmation with a calendar file. Book doesn't send reminders, so that calendar file keeps the date in their phone.
Collection
When the wig is ready, book the collection yourself from your list, or ask the client to choose a collection slot on your page. Book doesn't tell clients their wig is ready, so call or email them.
Discreet names and notes
The service name and note appear in the client's calendar file. Use neutral service names, such as "Care appointment", and ask clients not to write health details in the note. A short note about the wig type or the problem is enough. The note reaches you in the new booking email.
Planning your week
Slots repeat weekly on the weekdays you choose until an end date. Open drop-offs early in the week and collections at the end, so care fits between them. Your bookings sync with Google, iPhone or Mac calendars.
Repairs
Repairs are hard to time without seeing the wig. Offer a short repair assessment first, then book the repair drop-off yourself with the right timing.
What Book doesn't do
Book doesn't take payments, track repairs or send reminders. Clients can't move or cancel online: they contact you. One booking page per business, no staff field: with several stylists, create services per person. Book costs €5/month, everything included: unlimited services and bookings, no commission, no contract.
