At-home hairdresser FAQs
What deposit should I request for a technical service?
A flat amount (€20–€40) or 20–30% is enough to confirm without being excessive.
When should I request the balance?
Right after the service, while you are on site: it is the smoothest.
What if the service changes on site?
You adjust the final amount and collect the right total.
Is this suitable for small services?
Yes, especially to collect quickly at the end of the appointment.
Does the client receive proof?
Yes, a PDF receipt is generated after payment.
Do I need to install a terminal?
No, a smartphone is enough.

At home, a cancelled appointment costs double
When you travel, a late cancellation does not just mean "losing a cut": it also means wasted travel time and a broken route. An SMS/email deposit confirms the slot before you hit the road, especially for long services.
Cut, blow-dry, technical services: get paid without "I will transfer tonight"
At the end of the appointment, you want a clean close: no checks, no change to give, no follow-up. A payment link lets you collect in seconds, and each payment generates an automatic PDF receipt.
Two realistic priced scenarios
- Cut + blow-dry at €55: payment at the end via link, no waiting.
- Balayage + gloss at €160: €40 deposit to reserve 2–3 hours, €120 balance collected right after the service.
