What should I put for booked hours a week?
The hours you are genuinely with paying clients. Most full-time stylists land between 25 and 32 — anything above 35 is unusual and worth double-checking.

Work out what each service actually costs you to deliver, then print the menu your clients see — in one place. Free, no account, and nothing leaves your browser. Works for hair, nails, lashes, brows and beauty.
What an hour of your time costs
Every price below is measured against this number. Get it roughly right and the rest of the tool becomes honest.
Booked hours, not hours at work. Cleaning, ordering stock, answering messages and the gaps between clients are not billable — but they still have to be paid for. Most people put 40 here and then wonder why the numbers never work. Thirty is closer to the truth for a full-time column.

Duration is the chair time a client takes, including setup and clean-down. Product is what you use up on one client.

Categories
These are the headings on your printed menu, and they print in the order below. Add whatever you actually offer — Extensions, Bridal, Men's, Tanning, Piercing, anything.
The menu clients see
Printing gives you the menu only — none of the cost workings appear on the page. Saving as HTML gives you one self-contained file: no internet, no app, and it still opens in ten years. Handy for the salon's own records or for sending to a printer.

Pricing is one afternoon; running the week is the rest of it. If you want the calendar, client roster, invoices and stock in one offline file, that isStyleNest — one payment, no subscription.
These are your own numbers, worked through arithmetic — not financial advice. Local taxes, card fees and VAT are not included; check them with your accountant before you set a menu in stone.
Frequently asked questions
Does this work for nail techs and lash artists?
Yes. The maths is identical for any appointment-based service, and the categories are editable.
