A gentler first step
Try the fictional workspace first, then bring a few clients into your own studio as you get comfortable.

A LITTLE MORE ROOM FOR YOUR CRAFT
Your clients come for the way you see them. Bring their stories, your formulas, and your working day together so you can give your craft more attention and keep room for life beyond the chair.
Explore with fictional clients. No account needed for the demo.
Remember the formula.
Remember the person.
THE WORK BEHIND THE BEAUTIFUL WORK
From the first conversation to the next appointment, CircaSalon helps you keep the details together so your attention can stay with the person in your chair.
01CLIENT MEMORY
Their last result, their next big occasion, and the details they trusted you with belong together. Open a client and return to the conversation with care.

02A CALENDAR THAT FEELS LIKE YOURS
Plan the rhythm of your working day, see the space between appointments, and find the next maintenance visit without counting through the calendar.
Try a color above, then explore the full calendar.
SMART BOOKING, ON YOUR TERMS
Owning your business should give you more say over your time. Online booking helps clients request a suitable visit with less back-and-forth, while you keep control of the service, the timing, and the final approval.
Choose your working days and time windows, protect breaks and lunch, and keep personal time outside your availability.
The professional pilot checks the full service, recorded client timing, cleanup, and protected time. With Smart Booking enabled, flexible starts can add useful openings in five- or ten-minute steps as the day fills.
As you record visits, client history and actual service times give you a more informed starting point. Your judgment stays at the center, and existing appointments stay where you put them.
Client requests are available for prepared pilot studios. Save your services and hours, review your calendar, then share your booking link. Every visit needs your approval, and external calendars are not synced.

CircaSalon remembers what you chose, why you chose it, and how it turned out. Your technique and your judgment stay at the center of every service.

GROWING WITH WORKING PROFESSIONALS
CircaSalon is in a private pilot, shaped by real time behind the chair. The demo is open to explore while invited studios test the working tools and help guide what comes next.
Explore the current pilotClient records and import, online visit requests with professional approval, appointment email preferences and activity, Smart Booking, formulas, extension maps, color inventory, care plans, and transaction summaries.
Live payments and product checkout, receipt delivery, and a waitlist. Current payment and personal outreach tools prepare drafts for review. Appointment emails require a connected sender and client opt-in.
Vagaro appointments are not synced. Tax estimates, payroll, and tax filing are not included in this pilot.
A FEW THINGS YOU MIGHT BE WONDERING
Yes. Explore the demo with fictional clients and appointments. Demo changes stay in the preview, so you can get a feel for the workflow before using a private workspace.
Prepared pilot studios can enable a client request page after saving their services and working hours. Clients verify their email, choose an available time, and share their goals. The professional approves every request, with working hours, recorded client timing, breaks, and lunch checked again. Clients can return to the page for their status and opt in to confirmation, change, and reminder emails when the studio’s email connection is active. Text notifications are not included. External calendars are not synced, so record those appointments before sharing your link.
Recorded completed visits can inform the next appointment for the same client and service. The pilot uses recent eligible visit times conservatively, keeps the service minimum, and lets you review the plan. It does not move appointments or guarantee a shorter day.
Your professional assessment leads the service. CircaSalon helps record formulas, measured costs, outcomes, and your reasoning; it does not promise a color result or replace your judgment.
Keep your current booking and payment systems while you test the pilot. CircaSalon’s schedule is separate, so appointments need to be entered here; it does not automatically sync Vagaro.
The platform is designed for independent beauty professionals, with hair as the first detailed pilot. Color, formulas, and extension tools are hair-specific, while client records, scheduling, and bookkeeping form the shared foundation.
Use your invited email to create an account, confirm your email, and set up your studio. Start with a few client records and real visits, then let the experience guide what you add next. Public subscriptions are not available yet.
