Keep the appointment and the client history together
A booking calendar answers when somebody is coming. A useful beauty-business record also answers who they are, what they booked, what happened last time, what the service costs, whether the invoice is paid and whether the products you need are still in stock.
StyleNest keeps those records in one browser app rather than forcing a solo professional to maintain a booking tool, client notebook, invoice file and inventory sheet separately.

StyleNest FAQ
Does StyleNest work offline?
Yes for the core app. StyleNest is a downloaded HTML file that opens in a modern browser and stores the working records on your device.
Is StyleNest a salon booking subscription?
No. StyleNest is sold as a one-time purchase and does not require a GentleTools account or monthly software subscription.
Who is StyleNest designed for?
It is designed for independent beauty and personal-service professionals including hairdressers, nail technicians, makeup artists, barbers, massage therapists and tattoo artists.
What salon records can it keep?
The app combines appointments, client details and history, services, profession-specific notes, invoices, finances, inventory and business reports.
Does StyleNest send automatic reminders or take card payments?
No. It is a local business-management and record-keeping app, not a cloud communications or payment platform. If automated SMS, online booking or integrated card processing is essential, a connected cloud service may be a better fit.
