‘That was why I was really keen to get on board with Square – because I knew that they could manage everything for me.’

Founder, The BLOW
Blow dry salon, Melbourne
‘Square has made our lives easier and helped us run our business through three locations. It allows us to concentrate on what we are good at, that’s cutting hair.’
Shaun Ash
Co-owner Beef’s Barbers
‘It’s so helpful that each employee has a login and can use their own device to access Square Appointments to accept, decline or change appointments with ease, wherever they are.’
Romain Lambert
Founder, Kawada Hair Studio
‘Square seemed like an obvious choice to me. I love the fact that you can opt for an appointments booking system that is connected to a booking site, so it takes all of the reservation admin work out of staff hands, meaning we don’t require a receptionist.’
Kizzi
Owner, Kenneth Geoffrey’s
Barber, Melbourne
‘Square Appointments allows us to have a precise view of all appointment details, collate staff calendars and create/edit appointments as the owner on behalf of the employees. This leaves almost no room for miscommunication.’
