A Shared Calendar for Your Barbershop
Walk-in hours, holiday closings, pop-up events, barber availability — synced to every client's phone. No app to download.
Create Your Barbershop Calendar — FreeSound familiar?
It's a rainy Saturday at 11 AM. Three guys walk in for a cut, but you closed early because your afternoon barber called in sick. You taped a sign to the door at 10 AM. They drove across town and didn't see the sign until they were standing in front of it.
You're running a Father's Day special — free beard trim with every cut. You told your regulars in the chair last week, but word of mouth only goes so far. The guys who come in every three weeks instead of every two? They have no idea it's happening.
Every Monday, your shop phone rings with the same question: "Are you open today?" You've been closed on Mondays for two years. Your Google listing says so, but people still call. Your barbers spend five minutes a day answering a question that shouldn't need answering.

Here's what barbershops typically put on their shared calendar:
What this looks like in practice
Marco, the shop owner, opens iCalFeed on Sunday night. He marks the shop closed on Monday for a plumbing fix, adds a "Kids Cut Tuesday — $5 Off" event for next week, and notes that his second barber is on vacation Wednesday through Friday. Total time: three minutes.
DeShawn, a regular, checks his phone calendar Tuesday morning. He sees "Marco's — Open 9 AM-7 PM, Walk-Ins Welcome" and "Kids Cut Tuesday — $5 Off" right on his calendar. He brings his son after school. No phone call, no checking Instagram, no driving over to check.
On Thursday, Marco decides to stay open late for a First Friday event on the block. He adds "Late Night Cuts — Open Until 10 PM" to the calendar. Every subscriber sees it by evening. Three guys who usually come on Saturdays swing by Friday night instead — no advertising needed.
How iCalFeed compares
vs. Sign on the door
Clients only see it when they drive to the shop. If you're closed, they wasted a trip.
Hours live on their phone. They know before they leave the house.
vs. Instagram posts
Posts get buried in the feed. Your loyal client who comes every three weeks probably missed it.
Every subscriber sees every update. No algorithm, no scrolling required.
vs. Google Business listing
Doesn't handle one-off changes well. Can't show specials or barber-specific availability.
Share any kind of schedule change — closings, specials, individual barber days. Full control.
vs. Text messages to regulars
Time-consuming to send individually. Group texts feel spammy and some clients opt out.
Events appear in their calendar quietly. No push notifications, no text overload.
