Built for estheticians
Client retention software for estheticians
You're the expert on your client's skin. Cucumber handles the follow-up, so clients rebook on schedule without you making a single manual call.
The problem
As a solo esthetician, your income depends on a core group of regulars. If clients fall out of their treatment routine, they come back with worse skin — and sometimes with a different esthetician.

Questions from estheticians
Is Cucumber built for solo operators?
Yes. There's no per-staff pricing or minimum seat counts. Solo estheticians and small suites get the same features as larger operations.
Do clients know the texts are automated?
The messages are written to feel personal and come from your business number, not a generic short code. Most clients don't know — and the ones who do still appreciate the reminder.
Can I personalize the messages?
Yes. Every message uses your client's first name and your business name. You can also customize the message template per service.
What if I'm at capacity and don't want more bookings?
You can pause or disable any service rule at any time. Turn recall off for any service when you're full.
