A Shared Calendar for Your Salon
Salon hours, stylist availability, holiday closings, seasonal specials — synced to every client's phone. No app to download.

It's a Saturday at 10:15 AM. A woman walks in for a blowout, credit card in hand. Your best stylist is booked solid and the other one called in sick. You posted on Instagram that you're short-staffed today, but this client doesn't check Instagram on Saturday mornings — she checks it at midnight while scrolling in bed.
You're running a "Bring a Friend" color special all month. You printed table cards, mentioned it to every client in the chair, and posted it twice on Facebook. It's the 25th and only six people have taken advantage of it. Your regulars who come every six weeks won't hear about it until it's over.
A new client found your salon on Google and called to ask your hours. She got voicemail. She called back an hour later. Voicemail again — you were with clients. She booked at the salon down the street instead. Your hours were on the website, but she didn't want to search — she wanted a quick answer.

Here's what salons typically put on their shared calendar:
What this looks like in practice
Vanessa, the salon owner, opens iCalFeed on Sunday night. She marks the salon closed for MLK Day, adds a "Valentine's Day Blowout Special — $10 Off, Feb 10-14" event, and notes that her second stylist is off Tuesday through Thursday this week. Total time: three minutes.
Christine, a regular client, is planning her week on Monday morning. She sees "Salon Closed — MLK Day" and "Valentine's Special — $10 Off Blowout, Feb 10-14" on her phone calendar. She books a blowout for the 13th. She didn't have to see an Instagram story or remember a business card with the hours.
On Wednesday, Vanessa gets an unexpected product delivery and decides to host a free conditioning treatment demo on Friday. She adds it to the calendar. Every subscribed client sees "Free Deep Conditioning Demo — Friday 2 PM" by Thursday morning. Three clients reschedule their regular appointment to come during the demo.
How iCalFeed compares
vs. Instagram posts and stories
Stories vanish in 24 hours. Posts get buried. Only clients who follow you see anything.
Every subscriber sees every event and special on their phone calendar. No algorithm.
vs. Business cards with hours
Lost in a purse or wallet. Can't show specials, closings, or stylist changes.
Your full schedule lives on their phone and updates automatically.
vs. Phone calls
You're with a client and can't answer. The potential client hangs up and books elsewhere.
Hours are on their calendar already. No phone call needed.
vs. Booking app (Vagaro, Square)
Good for booking, but clients have to open a separate app to check hours or learn about specials.
Hours and specials appear in the calendar they already check every day. Zero friction.
