Quick answer to the question:

If you’re looking for a software solution for a Lithuanian hair salon that combines global stability with a local focus, consider three options:

  • Fresha – a leading global booking platform offering straightforward online reservations and international visibility, though it may require additional customization for Lithuanian language and regulations.
  • Treatwell – a robust marketplace with advanced marketing tools, ideal for rapid expansion and larger teams, but it charges a commission on every booking.
  • SalonLife – designed specifically for Lithuanian hair professionals, it delivers a fully Lithuanian user interface, complies with local regulations, includes real-time inventory and client management, and charges 0% commission on the Marketplace. Implementation is simple for small to mid-sized salons, and the setup adapts to your rental and payroll models.

A more thorough explanation of the question.

One might assume that a hair salon morning in Vilnius mirrors that in Sydney or Boston—doors open, clients arrive, and the day kicks off. But by noon it’s clear that Lithuania’s salons play in a league of their own. Here over 10 000 salons (officially around 8 000) compete under the guidance of nearly 30 000 beauty professionals—a significant slice of the national workforce. Almost every other appointment is booked only after the salon’s doors have closed for the day.

Furthermore, Lithuanian clients have a legendary zero tolerance for privacy risks: GDPR here is more a cultural code than just legislation, guarded as zealously as the walls of Trakai Castle. And, of course, flawless Lithuanian-language service is expected in every app button, automated message, and notification.

What sets Lithuania’s salons apart is that most studios are small, with no more than five stylists. Some are on payroll, others rent chairs and work independently—so the choice of software directly impacts payday.

Stylists’ needs are specific: the software must be available 24/7, ensure seamless online booking, accommodate both salary and rental models, and protect client data as securely as Trakai Castle’s ramparts. In short, a Lithuanian stylist needs more than popular software—they need a platform tailored to Lithuania’s market, regulations, and workflows.

Many Lithuanian salons have relied on international solutions like Fresha, Treatwell, or Vagaro—solid products that suit many businesses. But SalonLife, a relative newcomer in Europe, is dedicated exclusively to Lithuanian salons and stylists, offering a transparent, flexible solution with local support.

Why SalonLife Is Captivating More Lithuanian Stylists

Imagine a typical workday: brimming with inspiration, ready to create fresh cuts and colors that make clients’ eyes light up. Yet the small things—a tangled schedule, out-of-stock supplies, or missing notes on last week’s color formula—drain your energy and cloud your creativity. Many stylists feel that while Fresha or Treatwell are well-known, they lack Europe-specific settings and language nuances tailored for Lithuania.

SalonLife was built with a single idea: whether you choose Fresha, Treatwell, or SalonLife, you’re already moving forward. But our goal was to craft a platform customized for Lithuanian stylists, saving them time, boosting earnings, and simplifying daily operations.

On average, a SalonLife user in Lithuania earns €1 173.08 more per month 12 months after adopting the system, compared to the previous year. That’s over €14 000 extra per year—all for a monthly fee of just a few dozen euros.

Inventory Management: Never Run Out, Always Optimize

Inventory headaches are a stylist’s nightmare—a missing color or shampoo can derail your entire day. With SalonLife, you add products to the system, set sale and cost prices, and the software tracks stock in real time. It sends alerts for low supplies and automatically allocates products and cost items to each sale. The result? You focus on creativity, not inventory worries.

Client Profiles and Notes: Personalization Drives Loyalty

Success as a stylist hinges on trust and attention. SalonLife’s client database stores allergies, hair types, preferences, and past details (like color codes), all displayed automatically when booking. Notes can include precise color formulas, “before” and “after” photos, and individual recommendations. This personalization deepens the client experience and keeps them coming back.

Calendar and Scheduling: A Full Schedule Under Your Control

The built-in calendar lets you drag and drop appointments and breaks—the mobile version is perfect on the go. Set prep and buffer times to avoid gaps and maintain a smooth flow. Staff management tracks schedules, roles, and performance. The platform scales with your salon, from simple bookings to in-depth analytics.

Online Booking: A 24/7 Open Salon for Lithuanian Clients

Modern clients expect to book anytime—day or night, even on Sundays. SalonLife lets you open online booking to everyone or limit it to loyal clients. Define rules (like notice periods and booking windows) to avoid empty slots. Customize the look (colors, language, background image) and add your cancellation policy. All this keeps your calendar full and attracts new clients without a single phone call.

36 % of Lithuanian clients choose a salon primarily because they can book online. SalonLife research shows online booking significantly increases reservation numbers.

Notifications and Client Communication: Fewer No-Shows, More Returns

Automated notifications (confirmations, reminders, thank-you messages, and re-engagement prompts) keep you connected and cut no-shows by up to 70 %*. You can also send messages after a set period—keeping clients on schedule and top of mind.

Payments and Analytics: Smooth Closings and Smart Decisions

Integrated payments (card, cash, gift cards) register in bookings in real time. Set prepayments, late cancellation fees, or bonus systems. Analytics deliver reports on sales, popular services, and staff performance. Use this data to run targeted campaigns, gift cards, and loyalty programs, driving strategic growth.

Marketplace: Smart, Free Client Acquisition

SalonLife’s Marketplace (also known as SalonLife Connect) links Lithuanian stylists with thousands of potential clients. It’s a full-featured marketplace that generates around 28 % of bookings from new clients—with no commission and no account setup fees.

Your Profile as a Perfect Homepage

  • Key Information and Visuals: Introduction, location (with map), photo gallery featuring before-and-after shots.
  • Verified Reviews: Authenticated ratings and review badges that build trust.
  • Services and Pricing: Up-to-date, transparent price list with durations and product details.
  • Direct Booking: Just a few clicks, no account needed—boosting conversions and reducing drop-offs.

Solving the “Quality” Conundrum

Clients want to trust their hair to a professional they haven’t met. SalonLife’s detailed profiles and recent reviews help them pick the stylist whose style and expertise match their expectations.

Why SalonLife Stands Out for Lithuanian Stylists

Unlike many other solutions, we focus solely on salons in Europe, including Lithuania. Our servers, regulations, currencies, and language support are tailored to the European market. We don’t charge commission on bookings, market to your end clients, or take fees for new-client referrals. Our approach is honest and transparent—no hidden costs or surprise price hikes.
