This is the setup path for one stylist with one schedule: booth renters, suite renters, independents, and mobile stylists. Plan on one focused sitting to get through it.

Before you start

Have these on hand:
  • The name, address, and phone number you use for your business
  • Your service list with prices and how long each service takes
  • A logo if you have one (you can add it later if not)
1

Confirm your business details

Go to Settings and open Business. This is your business identity: it appears on invoices, your booking page, and the emails Sable sends for you.Check the business name, email, phone, and address. Sable sets your timezone from your address, and reminders and appointment times follow it, so fix it here if it looks wrong.While you’re in Settings, the Workspace theme section controls how Sable looks for you. Cozy is warm and magazine-inspired, Smart is crisp and familiar. Pick whichever feels like your salon.

Build your service menu

Open Services in the sidebar. Each service has a name, a category, a duration, and a price. Use New Service to add your menu one service at a time.Two settings matter more than they look:
  • Type: a Primary service is something a client books on its own, like a haircut or color. An Add-on rides along with a primary service, like a deep conditioning treatment.
  • Visibility: Public services appear on your online booking page. Keep a service private if you only book it in person.
Don’t agonize over getting the menu perfect. You can edit any service later, and prices are per service, so adjusting one never touches the rest.

Make your booking page yours

Go to Settings and open Booking Page. This is the page clients see when they book with you, and everything you change previews live on the right before you save.
  • Identity: your logo, salon name, and a short description.
  • Brand: accent color, page background, and a heading font. The font choices (Cozy, Smart, Editorial, Glam) set the personality of the whole page.
  • Payments: decide whether booking requires a card, a deposit, or carries a no-show fee. See Deposits, policies, and waitlist for how these choices play out.
  • Details: show your location and link your Instagram.
Use the Mobile and Desktop preview toggles. Most clients will see the mobile version. When it looks right, hit Save changes.

Connect payments and go live

Two short guides finish the job:Moving from another system? Do Import your clients first so your regulars are already waiting when the calendar opens.
