A salon runs on its stylists: each has their own chair, prices, hours, and regulars. Bastiva books per stylist with per-staff pricing and duration, saves color formula history on each client, handles multi-service appointments like cut-and-color as one block, and tracks tips and commission cleanly. No booking commissions and no per-transaction fees mean every service stays profitable.
Per-stylist booking and scheduling
Each stylist gets their own bookable calendar with personal pricing, service durations, and working hours. Clients book the stylist they want from your branded page or app, and recurring appointments keep regulars on the books automatically.
- Per-staff pricing and service duration
- Individual stylist calendars and hours
- Multi-service appointments (cut + color as one block)
- Recurring appointments and card-on-file
Color formula history and client records
Save each client's color formulas, processing times, and notes so any stylist can recreate the look — or pick up where another left off. Custom intake and consultation forms capture preferences, allergies, and history before the appointment.
- Color formulation history per client
- Consultation and intake forms
- Client tags for preferences and allergies
- Photo and note history on the client record
Tips, commission, and payroll-ready pay
Process payments with tips at checkout, split tips between providers on shared services, and apply per-stylist commission rules. Everything flows into a payroll-ready ledger, with a time clock for hourly staff and a built-in POS for retail product sales.

Frequently asked questions
Can each stylist have their own prices and hours?
Yes. Every stylist gets a personal calendar with their own service pricing, durations, and working hours, and clients book the stylist they want directly.
Can I save color formulas for clients?
Yes. Each client record stores color formula history, processing notes, and consultation details so any stylist can recreate or continue the work.
How are cut-and-color appointments handled?
Multi-service appointments book as a single block with combined duration and pricing, so a cut and color is one slot on the stylist's calendar.
Can I split tips between providers?
Yes. Tips can be split between providers on shared services, with per-stylist commission rules feeding a payroll-ready ledger.
Do you take a commission on bookings?
No. Bastiva charges no booking commissions and no per-transaction fees — just flat monthly pricing.
