BackBar Pro vs HerSets

Your clients, your services, your money. One app that remembers all of it. BackBar Pro is for the beauty pro who is also the front desk, the bookkeeper, and the one who remembers every client's last visit. Hairstylists, estheticians, and lash and brow artists each get the records their craft needs, plus booking, payments, and money tools that work the same for everyone. CLIENTS YOU ACTUALLY REMEMBER Every client gets one profile: visit history, allergies and sensitivities, before and after photos, and notes from every appointment. Send intake forms, waivers, and consent forms by text or email, and clients sign on their phone. Switching from another app? Send us your export and we will load your client list for you. FOR HAIRSTYLISTS: A FORMULA VAULT Build a formula the way you mix it: color, lightener, developer, timing, and weights, with the finish photo attached. Every visit keeps its exact formula, so you can pull up exactly what you used last time. Extension sets and maintenance dates are saved on the client's hair profile. FOR ESTHETICIANS: YOUR PROTOCOL BOOK Save the exact steps of each facial, peel, or treatment once, with contraindications, peel details, and aftercare. Run a treatment step by step with timers, keep a skin profile for every client, and send a home care routine after the visit. FOR LASH AND BROW ARTISTS: MAPS THAT REMEMBER THE SET Map lashes zone by zone, and save brow shapes with your lamination and tint details and a live timer. Every client keeps their saved maps, and you file them under categories you make yourself. BOOKING THAT PROTECTS YOUR TIME Your own booking page with your services, hours, and rules. Take deposits at booking, approve requests, and let clients reschedule or cancel from a link inside the window you set. Keep a waitlist and fill a cancellation in one tap. Charge no-show and late-cancel fees when you need to. GET PAID, HOWEVER THEY PAY With Tap to Pay on iPhone, there's no need for additional card readers or terminals. Take card on file, payment QR codes for Venmo, Zelle, and Cash App, cash, and gift cards. Sell memberships and packages, send invoices, and text or email the receipt the moment you close out. REMINDERS THAT CUT NO-SHOWS Automatic appointment reminders by text and email, booking confirmations, and change notices. When a client is due, a rebook nudge puts a ready-to-send text on your to-do list, and a follow-up email goes out if they have not booked. Your phone alerts you to new bookings and cancellations. INVENTORY THAT KNOWS WHAT IT COSTS Track your retail shelf with stock counts and your markup. Premium adds back bar shelves for color, lash and brow, skincare, and supplies, scanning a bottle or an invoice to add products, and for color, the live cost of every bowl added to the ticket. MONEY AND TAXES, HANDLED Track expenses by deduction category, see income and profit by month, and set money aside for taxes. Premium adds receipt scanning from a photo, a full federal and state estimate, reminders before quarterly deadlines, and a year-end package your accountant can use. REPORTS WORTH READING Revenue, average ticket, and rebook rate, plus a monthly goal with your pace against it. Premium adds where to improve, chair time, color cost per service, and top clients. BUILT FOR HOW YOU WORK iPhone, iPad, and the web, all on one account. See your appointments in Google Calendar or Apple Calendar. WHO IT IS FOR Independent hairstylists, estheticians, lash and brow artists, booth renters, and solo studio owners who want one calm system instead of five apps, a group text, and a notes file. New accounts start with a 14 day free trial, no card needed. When the trial ends, everything you saved stays yours. Tap to Pay on iPhone requires a supported payment app and the latest version of iOS.

HerSets is the digital notebook built for beauty artists — the one place for every client's formulas, maps, history, and details you used to keep scattered across camera rolls, paper notebooks, and text threads. If you're a lash artist, nail tech, hair stylist, or esthetician, you already know the problem: the details that make your work good — the exact curl and diameter, the per-finger gel formula, the root-to-tip color mix, the client who's sensitive to acetone — live nowhere reliable. A screenshot here. A sticky note there. A frantic scroll through your camera roll five minutes before your next client sits down. HerSets fixes that with five built-in templates, ready on day one: LASH MAPS A full 5-zone eye diagram — inner corner, inner-mid corner, center, outer-mid, outer corner — with curl, length, diameter, and adhesive noted per zone. Replaces guesswork and old photos with a map you can actually read. NAIL FORMULAS Per-finger detail: gel type, color code, brand, and finish, so you can recreate any set exactly, months later. HAIR COLOR MAPS Natural level, section-by-section formulas, and a head map for placement — root, mid-length, and toner, all in one profile. SKIN & ESTHETICIAN JOURNALS Skin type, concerns, a face-zone treatment map, and a homecare plan for every visit. CLIENT PROFILES Contact info, allergies, patch test results, sensitivities, and notes — updated automatically after every visit, so it always reflects who your client is today. Beyond the templates, HerSets gives you: VISIT NOTES — a full timeline of what happened at every appointment: products used, retention observations, feedback, and anything worth remembering next time. ALERTS & FLAGS — sensitivities and patch test results surface automatically before your client sits down, so nothing gets missed. WEEKLY SCHEDULE — a color-coded view of your week, sorted by service and client, so you can glance ahead and prep. CUSTOM TEMPLATES — not every artist works the same way. Add your own fields, name them what makes sense to you, and reuse them with any client. HerSets isn't a booking app. It's the notebook behind the chair — built for the part of the job that actually determines whether a client's results are consistent, and whether they feel remembered. I'm not a tech, I'm an artist. HerSets is built for the way you already work.
