Run a walk-in hair salon in Geelong and your busiest hours quietly cost you the most. During the after-work and weekend peak, walk-ins can't tell if it's a 5-minute or 50-minute wait, so they don't risk it. NowServing is the live wait-time display for hair salons: it shows your real wait, lets someone in for a cut, colour or blow-dry join the line from their phone, and buzzes them the moment it's their turn. Geelong's growing main streets mean more choice for customers and less patience for guessing games.

Name in, and they see their spot and an honest ETA built from your real stylist times.
A "you're up" ping (plus a ~15-min heads-up) brings them back the moment you're ready.
Walk-ins slot into the quiet windows between colour clients instead of walking out.
Clients step out for a coffee and return exactly when their stylist is ready.
A one-tap review ask goes out after every finished service, on autopilot.
The reason hair salons stick with it: on any paid plan, the customer's phone gets an automatic "you're up" buzz the second it's their turn, plus a "~15 minutes to go" heads-up. It's free web-push — no SMS, no per-text cost, and no app to download — and it works on Android and iPhone. That's what turns a glance-and-leave into a come-back-and-buy.
Does it work for a small Geelong hair salon?
Yes — one stylist or six, it's the same one-line setup. Most shops are live the same afternoon.
Do my clients need an app?
No. It's a web link they open from your QR, bio or website. Nothing to install, for you or them.
What does it cost?
Free to start (live wait + review link). The Regular — which adds the auto-notify and review engine — is from $49/mo billed yearly (2 months free), or $59 monthly. Cancel anytime.
