Services for Beauty, Hair, and Nail Salons and Spas

Salon Iris salon management software allows you to enter a list of services, prices, and descriptions your business offers. Salon Iris salon management software also contains over 200 reports, which includes service statistics. The information tracked is shown below:

  • Service ID - can be up to 18 alpha- numeric characters long.
  • Description
  • Default time it takes to perform service, including employee time exceptions. An exception is when a certain employee takes longer than the default time to perform a service. The time feature is optional and works when scheduling appointments.
  • Setup, processing time, and finish time (including exceptions)
  • Default price and employee price exceptions. Unless an exception price is entered for an employee(s), the default price is used.
  • When this service is sold, change the client's balance by a certain amount
  • When this service is sold, change the client's tanning minutes by a certain amount. Employee commission amount when this service is sold.
  • Up to three products may be entered that must be purchased when this service is sold.
  • Back bar charge (if any). Back bar is the amount of products that a salon uses to perform a service. For example, if a perm costs $80, but $10 of perm solution is used, the back bar is $10. If your stylist gets commission on amount of services sold, the stylist would not make commission on the back bar amount. So, in this case, for a perm, the stylist would only make commission on $70.
  • You can link a service to a resource. If a service requires a resource (such as a room), the software will automatically book the employee and resource when creating a ticket.

Editing a service or creating a new service is simple and efficient.

Pre-Paid Services

 Quite a number of spas, beauty/hair salons, and tanning salons do pre-paid services. Clients may purchase pre-paid tanning visits, pre-paid facials, pre-paid manicures, pre-paid haircuts, etc. Unlimited types of pre-paid services can be tracked (for example, Sue Smith may have a 10 massage pre-paid package, a 5 visit pre-paid facial package, plus 10 pre-paid tanning visits). Also, you can track how many pre-paid services are remaining for a client.
The Appointment Book shows when each employee is available according to his or her schedule.
