Do the hair.We’ll handle the other work.
Your clients, formulas, timing, photos, products, money, and follow-ups finally connected in one place—built specifically for independent hairstylists.
Your chair, at a glance.
The salon shouldn’t have to live in your head.
Independent stylists are expected to be the artist, receptionist, inventory manager, bookkeeper, marketer, photographer, and memory bank—often while a client is still in the chair.
Booking software stops here. OTHERWORK keeps going.
The appointment is only one piece of hair work. OTHERWORK follows what actually happens: the consultation, the separate bowls, the processing time, the result, the product cost, the checkout, and what the client needs next.
Every bowl gets its own formula, grams, ratio, and developer.
Record what you planned, what you actually mixed, extra bowls, mix-more, waste, post-application edits, and the result—without flattening an entire color service into one note.
See the hair story, not scattered pieces of it.
Consultation photos, hair history, signed forms, appointments, services, formulas, finished photos, maintenance rhythm, and Hair Passport stay connected to the person.
Set the hourly rate you want. See what the service needs to cost.
OTHERWORK uses service timing and product cost to show projected hourly earnings, actual take-home per hour, and the target price needed to reach your desired rate. Service Health shows what is strong, close, or underpriced.
Stack on purpose. Adjust the real timing.
Multiple services, intentional overlap, processing time, whole-day blocks, recurring appointments, booking approval, and mobile day/week/month views.
A waitlist that knows who can actually come.
Match cancellation openings using desired days, preferred times, service length, and minimum notice—then cancel a waitlist entry without erasing its history.
Uses the client’s photos, history, prior formulas, and your inventory—and says when it cannot know yet.
The Formula Assistant is designed to support professional judgment, not manufacture certainty. It explains what it sees, what is missing, and why a recommendation may be low-confidence.
Your website, booking request, Finish Booking, forms, and Hair Passport speak to the same system.
Clients can request services, share current-hair and inspiration photos, complete required information, manage appointments, and revisit their maintenance guidance.
Your whole chair, connected.
OTHERWORK is a working system for the day, the client, the color, the numbers, and the business people see online. Explore what is already inside the beta.
See what needs you now—and what the day is actually worth.
Today combines the schedule with projected revenue, take-home after product, hourly performance, open time, booking requests, rebooking needs, and the next client in your chair.

“Hairdressers don’t need more software to manage. They need software that understands the work.”OTHERWORK · HAIR / STUDIO
Created inside a real independent salon.
OTHERWORK grew out of more than a decade of running a salon and carrying the details that generic scheduling software leaves behind. Real appointments, color corrections, client questions, product costs, cancellations, and field notes shape what gets built next.
Want a chair at the table?
We’re inviting a small number of independent hairstylists to use OTHERWORK during real working days and tell us what helps, what gets in the way, and what hair software has always missed.
