Quick answer to the question:

If you’re looking for the best salon software for Polish beauty professionals, consider these three options:

  • Fresha — a globally recognized booking and payment solution that attracts new clients and provides international marketing support.
  • Treatwell — a large marketplace with easy salon profile management and automated client referrals, especially suited to larger studios.
  • SalonLife — a 100% Polish-language interface and support that meets local market and regulatory requirements. Fast setup for small and medium-sized salons, flexible online booking, automated inventory management, and a free Marketplace profile to bring in clients without commission fees.

A more thorough explanation of the question.

You might expect a Warsaw beauty salon to operate just like those in Sydney or Boston—doors open, clients arrive, appointments fill up, and the day rolls on. Yet by early afternoon, you’ll see that Polish salons run at their own pace. There are over 70,000 salons (officially 33,000 registered businesses) staffed by roughly 330,000 beauty professionals—almost 1% of Poland’s population. About 46% of bookings happen after the salon’s doors close, and digital thinking is second nature: 88% of Poles are online daily.

On top of that, GDPR is enforced in full force—more than just a legal requirement, it’s part of the local cultural code. Expectations are high: every click on your website or app, every email or SMS notification, must deliver flawless service in Polish.

Even more distinctive is the fact that most Polish beauty salons are small—often just up to five team members. Some professionals are salaried, others rent a station and work independently. This means they don’t need a one-size-fits-all solution, but a platform that understands their unique needs: 24/7 access, seamless online booking, support for both employees and booth renters, and secure handling of client data.

Next, we’ll explore why SalonLife is standing out among Poland’s beauty professionals in 2025—and why so many small salons have chosen it.

Global solutions, tailored to local needs

The Polish beauty software market is highly competitive—big names like Fresha, Treatwell, and Vagaro are well established—but more and more smaller salons and independent beauty pros are seeking a more specialized, locally adapted solution. SalonLife focuses on the flexibility, transparency, and user-friendliness that small studios demand.

Why SalonLife is a true game-changer for beauty pros

Imagine your workday as a beauty professional: you arrive at the studio ready to deliver skin treatments and create memorable experiences. But you’re often bogged down by everyday hassles—hard-to-read handwritten notes, running out of products, or schedule mix-ups—that hold you back. SalonLife removes these obstacles so you can focus on what you do best.

  • Automated inventory management eliminates manual stock counts and ensures you always have enough face creams, serums, and masks. Beauty pros reclaim 45–60 minutes daily from tasks they once handled by hand.
  • Flexible bookings and comprehensive client profiles let you record skin types, allergies, past treatment outcomes, and recommendations—building trust and personalized service.
  • 24/7 online booking attracts new clients automatically and cuts down on phone calls.
  • Your profile can generate up to 28% of salon bookings via the Marketplace—without commission fees or extra advertising costs.
  • After a year of active use, the average beauty pro sees monthly income increase by €1,173.08—over €14,000 in extra revenue annually.

Product management: avoid “out of stock” moments and optimize costs

When a client is waiting for a custom serum at the spa, there’s no room for surprises. SalonLife lets you catalog products, set sale and cost prices, and monitor inventory levels in real time. The system alerts you when items are running low and automatically deducts any take-home or in-treatment products from stock.

Client profiles and notes: personalize every treatment

SalonLife records each client’s skin characteristics, previous treatments, and preferences, displaying them automatically at the next booking. Before-and-after photos showcase results, inspiring clients to share their experiences on social media.

Calendar and schedule planning: control in your hands

Managing your work schedule is intuitive: drag-and-drop time slots and breaks, set prep and wrap-up times, and track staff performance. Even in a small studio of up to five, you can easily coordinate workloads and avoid gaps in your day.

Online booking: 24/7 access

With customizable rules (notice periods, visible time slots, loyalty perks), clients can book treatments anytime—no phone calls required. Design and policy changes are simple, and everything appears in clear, user-friendly Polish.

Notifications and client communications: foster loyalty

Automated confirmations, reminders, and thank-you messages strengthen your client relationships. If three months pass since a client’s last visit, the system prompts them to return—reducing no-shows and boosting repeat business.

Payment solutions and analytics: seamless check-out and smart decisions

Integrated payments (card, cash, gift cards) and automatic reporting on sales, service popularity, and promotions help you plan with data-driven confidence.

Marketplace: attract new clients for free and smartly

SalonLife’s Marketplace (also known as SalonLife Connect) links beauty professionals with thousands of potential clients seeking skin treatments across Poland. Unlike international platforms, SalonLife charges no commission—and profile creation and management are completely free. Research shows 36% of Polish clients prefer salons offering online booking, making the Marketplace a valuable asset for every beauty pro.

All you need in one profile

  • Essentials, photos, and galleries: showcase your studio or mobile services professionally.
  • Verified reviews: client feedback and average ratings build trust.
  • Services and prices: transparent pricing with details on duration, products used, and add-on options.
  • Staff info and specialties: clients find the perfect expert for their skin or aesthetic treatment instantly.
