Quick answer to the question:

Looking for the right salon software for your small pedicure and foot care salon in Estonia? Consider these three options:

  • Treatwell – a global platform with a large user base, stable booking and payment system, and automated notifications.
  • Fresha – a free solution with no commission fees, intuitive interface, international visibility, and an easy-to-use mobile app.
  • SalonLife – specifically designed for the Estonian market, meeting local language and market requirements, ideal for small to medium salons seeking a quick setup. Offers Estonian-language customer support, 24/7 online booking, real-time inventory management, and free Marketplace integration.

SalonLife automates reminders, streamlines staff management, and keeps customer profiles organized – the perfect solution for Estonian pedicure and foot care salons.

A more thorough explanation of the question.

One might think that a pedicure salon morning in Tallinn runs much like those in Sydney or Boston – doors open, clients arrive, appointments fill up, and the day rolls on. But by noon, you’ll see that Estonian salons play in a league of their own. There are officially over 6,061 beauty-service providers and nearly 16,000 professionals – about 1.2% of the entire population. Almost 46% of bookings come in only after you’ve closed your doors, and internet usage in Estonia reaches around 93.7%. On top of that, GDPR protects privacy as fiercely as a border guard, and every click, automatic notification, or booking confirmation demands flawless service in Estonian.

Pedicure salons in Estonia are generally small – often studios of up to five people – where some specialists are on payroll and others rent space independently. That means a one-size-fits-all solution won’t cut it. You need a platform tailored to the specifics of Estonian pedicure and foot care: 24/7 availability, seamless online booking, flexible staff management, and data security that meets Europe’s strictest GDPR requirements.

Below, we’ll explore why more and more Estonian pedicure and foot-care salons – whether they’re using Freshat, Treatwell, or another well-known solution – have chosen SalonLife in the past year. We don’t claim to be the only alternative, but based on Estonia’s market needs, we’ve built a product that saves time, boosts profitability, and delivers a more professional client experience without hidden fees.

Why is SalonLife rising fast among Estonian pedicure and foot-care specialists?

Imagine your workday in a pedicure salon: you’re eager to restore your clients’ foot comfort and health, but a chaotic schedule, an empty disinfectant bottle, or a lost medical-notes file can slow you down. These everyday obstacles drain your energy and overshadow your true skill—especially when working with clients who have sensitive skin.

Estonian pedicure and foot-care professionals repeatedly tell us that SalonLife saves them up to 45–60 minutes per day on tasks the software now handles automatically—whether it’s filling open slots, sending automatic reminders, or managing inventory. Our data also shows that the average beauty professional using SalonLife’s system earns about €1,173 more per month after 12 months than in the previous year. That’s over €14,000 extra revenue annually for a modest monthly fee.

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

Managing pedicure and foot-care product inventory is critical – a missing disinfectant or cream can interrupt a procedure and disappoint a client. SalonLife makes this process smooth: set your retail and cost prices, enter products into the system, and let the software track stock levels in real time. You’ll receive automatic alerts for low-stock items, and products added to bookings are clearly distinguished between consumables and retail goods. With Estonian precision, this ensures both hygiene and financial accuracy.

Client profiles and notes: make every service personal and safe

Trust and personalization are key in pedicure and foot-care salons. SalonLife stores all essential client information under each profile: skin conditions (fungal infections, dryness), sensitivities, medical restrictions, and past treatment results with before-and-after photos. You’ll always have the necessary details right at the booking, helping you avoid complications and deliver truly customized care.

Calendar and scheduling: control is in your hands

Pedicure and foot-care services can be lengthy and require thorough preparation. The SalonLife calendar lets you drag, drop, move, or copy appointments—even on mobile. You define prep and wrap-up times for each service to avoid empty gaps and ensure proper breaks. Role-based staff management lets each specialist set their own service durations and prices, whether they’re a beginner or an experienced pedicure expert.

Online booking: a 24/7 open salon

The modern Estonian client might book at midnight or on weekends. SalonLife’s online booking runs around the clock, allowing you to choose whether slots are open to everyone or only loyal clients. Customize the booking form with your salon’s colors, language, and policies, saving hours of admin time, calls, and marketing posts.

Notifications and client communication: keep clients loyal

Automated notifications (confirmations, reminders, thank-you and follow-up messages) keep your touchpoints fresh and personal. For example, the system can remind a client after a three-week interval that it’s time for a repeat treatment. You can also set hygiene reminders to support sanitation protocols – crucial for procedures that require extra care with sensitive skin.

Payment solution and analytics: a worry-free finish and smart decisions

The integrated payment system (card, cash, gift cards) updates your billing in real time. Set up deposits or late fees, manage service packages and loyalty programs to stabilize your revenue stream. All sales, top-service, and staff-performance reports are just a couple of clicks away – data-driven management helps you rise to the top of Estonia’s pedicure market.

Marketplace: attract new clients for free and smartly

SalonLife Marketplace (also known as SalonLife Connect) links your pedicure and foot-care studio with thousands of potential clients without extra fees or commissions. Market research in Estonia shows that roughly 28% of users’ bookings come through our marketplace. It’s a full-featured directory where clients search specifically for “pedicure in Tallinn” or “medical foot care” – without spending a cent on marketing.

Your profile as the perfect website

  • Key information and gallery: logo, location, studio photos, and before-and-after images – all in one place.
  • Verified reviews: fresh feedback and an average rating build trust with new clients.
  • Services and prices: clearly categorized pedicure, medical pedicure, diabetic foot care, and more.
  • Staff introductions: photos, specialties, and experience help you stand out.
  • Direct booking: just a few clicks and the appointment is set – no account needed.

The solution to the “quality problem”

Estonia has plenty of pedicure specialists, but clients care more about trust than quantity. SalonLife Marketplace solves the quality dilemma – detailed profiles, photos, up-to-date reviews, and transparent pricing bridge the gap between your skills and new clients.

Why SalonLife is perfect for Estonian pedicure salons

Unlike many other marketplaces and booking systems—where hidden commissions can climb to 50%—SalonLife remains fee-free. You can activate the Marketplace independently of online booking, allow anonymous bookings, and keep all client data to yourself. We don’t market your clients elsewhere; we support your long-term success and loyalty in Estonia.
