How to create your beauty salon website, with booking by room inside

Your beauty salon website is built in trimly without any code and in about ten minutes: name, treatments with their durations — brow shaping, deep cleansing facial, waxing by area — opening hours, and rooms or professionals. It goes live with online booking. Free if you work on your own; with a team, €19.99 a month and no commission.

How it works, step by step

About ten minutes in total. None of the steps asks you to know anything about websites.

  1. 1

    Register

    Email, password and you are in. No card is asked for to open the account, and the one-professional plan has no countdown on it, so you can set the whole thing up calmly on a Tuesday afternoon.

  2. 2

    Name the salon and take the address

    The name you type defines the website's address: “Espacio Aurora” becomes espacio-aurora.trimly.es. The day you buy a domain, you connect it and the same page is served from it without building anything again.

  3. 3

    Sort out the treatments you offer

    Brow shaping and waxing, upper lip, deep cleansing facial, full legs, bikini and underarms arrive written with a rough duration. You take out what you do not do, put your prices in and add your own: brow lamination, a lash lift or a relaxing massage.

  4. 4

    Give each professional or room its own hours

    As well as the salon's hours, each professional has their own, and an appointment is only offered when that person is in. If you share a room, you can register it as though it were another professional, with its own diary and only the treatments that are done inside it.

  5. 5

    Show the page

    The website is live as soon as you finish. The link goes on Instagram, on the Google listing and in the message you send back to whoever asks about prices; whoever opens it sees the treatments, how long each one takes and the book button, without having to ask anything.

Afterwards, if you want to: connect your own domain, add more languages, switch on deposits or card payment, and upload your logo and your photos. None of that is needed to get started.

What a beauty salon asks of its website

Beauty appointments chain together: three areas back to back, a facial that needs a room, a package started two months ago. The website has to understand that before it accepts the booking, not afterwards.

Several treatments, one appointment

Brows, lip and underarms are three services and a single visit of a long half hour. Whoever books ticks them all, the minutes add up before any time is shown, and the appointment that lands in your diary already has the real time set aside and the combined amount worked out. Nobody puts down half an hour for something that is fifty minutes, and you do not end up ringing round in the afternoon to move what was badly measured.

By professional or by room

Each person on the team has their own treatments and their own hours, so a facial booking never lands in the diary of someone who only waxes. When the bottleneck is not the person but the machine, the laser room can be registered as another professional: it carries its own diary, its own list of treatments, and will not take two appointments at once. Whoever books picks, or is assigned, without ever finding out how you have set it up underneath.

Treatments sold by the session

A ten-session facial is paid for once and used up over months, and that count usually ends on a loose sheet of paper or in somebody's head. You can create packages with as many sessions as you like, sell them from the dashboard and take one off at each visit, so at any moment you know how many each client has left. Gift cards are handled the same way, and they are the ones that save December.

Approving by hand when it matters

There are treatments you cannot wave through blind: a first laser session, a peel, anything that needs a consultation or a patch test first. You can have bookings made online arrive as pending and not become firm until you accept them. You see the request on your phone, you accept it or turn it down, and the client gets the answer. When you do not need it, you switch it off and everything confirms itself again.

The list a beauty salon starts with, with a rough duration for each treatment. All of it is changed from the dashboard.

  • Brow shape & wax20 min
  • Upper lip wax15 min
  • Deep cleansing facial60 min
  • Full leg wax45 min
  • Bikini wax20 min
  • Underarm wax15 min

The duration decides which slots are offered when someone books; adjust it if yours is different.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a beauty salon website cost?

Nothing if the salon is just you: the one-professional plan includes the website, the address, online booking, card payment and the invoicing, does not expire and does not ask for a card. With a team you move to a flat monthly fee, with as many professionals as you need and no commission on appointments or on payments. Client messages are bought in packs when you need them.

Can a client book three waxing areas at once?

Yes. She ticks all three in the same booking, the minutes add up and she is only offered the times where the whole thing fits. The appointment lands in your diary with the three areas written on it and the total amount, so there is no adding services up in front of her when it is time to charge.

How do I run two rooms from the same website?

By registering each room as though it were a professional. Each one carries its hours and the list of treatments done inside it and, since a diary will not take two overlapping appointments, two people cannot book the same room at the same time. If you also have two therapists, each goes with her own diary and her own services.

Can I sell a ten-session package?

Yes. You define the package with the treatment and the number of sessions, price it and sell it from the dashboard. It sits under the client's name and one session comes off at each visit; on her record you see how many she has used and how many are left. It works just as well for a pack of four as for a course of ten or twelve.

Can I review every booking before confirming it?

Yes, by turning on manual approval. With that option on, everything booked from the website arrives as pending and waits for you to say yes. Your phone tells you, you accept or decline, and the client finds out. Whatever you write down at the desk or take over the phone is confirmed straight away, without going through that queue.

How do I charge for expensive treatments in advance?

You can put the salon on payment in advance: with that option on, any booking made from the website is paid in full by card at the time and the appointment arrives already paid, so on the day of the session there is no money to handle. That decision belongs to the whole salon, not to each treatment. If you would rather take only part of it, the deposit is the one that is tuned treatment by treatment.

Do I need a separate website for each salon?

Yes: each salon is an account with its own website, its own diary and its own team. There is no screen today that puts two locations into a single view, so if you open a second salon you will have two addresses and you will sign in to each of them separately. Worth knowing before you set it up, if your plan is to grow to several locations.
