Built for hair salons
Keep salon clients on schedule — automatically
Color and cut clients have a natural rebooking window. Cucumber texts them when it's time, so they book with you instead of whoever they find on Google.
The problem
Hair color fades. Roots grow out. Cuts get shaggy. Every salon client has a timer running — but without a nudge, they'll let it run for weeks and end up at a walk-in down the street.

Questions from hair salons
Can Cucumber work alongside my existing booking software?
Yes. Cucumber's retention features work independently or can sync with tools like Vagaro, Boulevard, and Mindbody via manual import or direct integration.
What if I have multiple stylists?
Every plan covers your whole team. Client follow-ups go out under the salon's brand, not individual stylists.
Can I pause follow-ups for a specific client?
Yes. You can skip or pause follow-ups for individual clients at any time from the dashboard.
How long does setup take?
Most salons are live in under 20 minutes. You provision a phone number, set your service rules, and Cucumber handles the rest.
