Appointment Book

A faster appointment book built for nail salons

Schedule clients by technician, time, and service while keeping the appointment connected to check-in, turn management, and checkout.

Your salon day. In one clear view.

See each technician’s appointments, find an opening, and keep the details of every visit together. One shared schedule for the whole front desk.

See every technician, appointment, and opening

Aura turns the daily schedule into a shared visual workspace, so the front desk can understand availability and make changes without piecing the day together from separate calendars.

Scan the team at once

See each technician’s day side by side in one timeline.

Read visits quickly

Color-coded blocks make services, timing, and grouped visits easier to recognize.

Spot open time

Openings and blocked availability stay visible while the schedule changes.

Built for real nail appointments

Build every appointment in one place

Choose the time, technician, visit type, and services from one clear workspace while keeping the client details connected to the appointment.

At the front desk

Everything about the client, right from the appointment

Open any appointment to see the client’s history, send them a text, or check them in, without leaving the book.

Group bookings

Book the whole party at once

Friends, bridal parties, a mom and daughter: book up to 12 guests under one name and number, and give each guest their own technician and services. Every card in the party carries the same Group bar, so the front desk can see who arrives together, and when the party checks in, every card shows it.

Time blocks

Keep time off the book

Block a technician’s lunch, a training or an early finish, for a set window or until close. No one can book into it, at the front desk or online, and if staff drag an existing appointment onto blocked time, Aura asks before moving it.

Client communication

Keep clients updated by text

Send appointment details directly to the client’s phone so they can confirm the date and time without another call to the front desk.

After the visit, send a simple follow-up message that makes it easy for clients to share feedback while the experience is still fresh.

Frequently asked questions

Can one appointment include more than one service?

Yes. Aura supports grouped appointments with multiple service rows and technicians when the visit requires them.

Can staff reschedule an appointment?

Yes. Staff can move appointments while Aura keeps the date, technician, service, and customer details together.

Does the appointment book connect to client check-in?

Yes. Appointment details can be used when a client checks in so staff can continue the existing visit instead of rebuilding it.

Do online bookings appear in the same schedule?

Yes. Eligible online bookings enter Aura’s appointment system so the front desk can work from the same salon schedule.

Can the team use the appointment book on more than one screen?

Yes. Connected salon screens can receive current appointment updates so staff are not dependent on one front-desk device.
