Daviana Booking · salon booking systemA clearer diary.
A calmer salon day.

More time with clients. Less time managing bookings.

Daviana Diary is salon booking software for hair, nail and beauty salons: the appointment diary, till, client records, per-stylist pricing, rota and online booking in one system. Every other Daviana product reads and writes the same client record.

Everything the front desk runs on.

From the first booking to the final payment, keep your team working from the same information. One diary, one client record and a simpler day at the front desk.

The diary

A live diary, per salon.

Every stylist a column, every service a block, colour-coded by discipline. Book, drag, reschedule and check a client in — the floor and the front desk see the same diary update the moment it changes.

Built for the floor

Give each salon its own diary, with appointments and client details connected across your team.

Till & payments

The till lives on the booking.

Cash out against the appointment and the sale is done — services, retail, tips and payment type land on one bill, attributed to the stylist who did the work. Nothing is re-keyed into a second system.

Built for the floor

Payments, product sales and tips ledgered per stylist — the numbers the pay run reads later are captured here, first.

Client records

One record, the whole history.

Every visit, every spend, every favourite stylist — held on one client card. Lifetime value and visit count roll up automatically into VIP and loyalty tiers, and a manager can flag a regular as VIP by hand when the numbers don't tell the whole story.

Built for the floor

The same record the phone, the chair and the pay run all read — so a client is never a stranger twice.

Pricing & eligibility

Every stylist, their own price list.

The same service costs what the stylist performing it is worth. Daviana Diary holds price per stylist on every service line — and holds who is eligible to perform what, so a colourist is never offered for a men's cut they don't do.

Built for the floor

Eligibility decides whether, rota decides when — the two-step that keeps every offer honest, on the phone and online.

Rota, hours & online

Open the diary to the world.

Salon opening hours, each stylist's rota and their time off are set once and enforced everywhere — no slot is ever offered outside them. Flip a service to bookable online and clients self-book straight into the same diary, deposit taken, from a branded portal.

Built for the floor

The rota that fills the diary and the hours that gate it are one source — so online booking can never sell a slot that isn't really there.

Not an integration. The shared record.

Daviana doesn't just stay in step with the rest of the salon software — it is the rest of the salon software's memory. Every other Daviana product reads from it and writes back to it, live.

Salon booking system: your questions

What salon owners ask before they move their diary.

What is a salon booking system?

It is the diary a salon runs on: appointments by stylist, the till and the client record. Daviana's salon booking system keeps the appointment diary, till, client records, per-stylist pricing, rota and online booking in one system, so nothing is typed in twice.

How much does Daviana's booking system cost?

£25 a month for one person, £45 for two or three, £80 for four to eight and £120 for nine or more, all including VAT. There is no commission and no charge per booking, the first month is free, and you can cancel any month. Bar and Performance are included with it. See pricing.

Can clients book online?

Yes. Make a service bookable online and clients book themselves into the same diary from your own branded page, with a deposit taken at booking. Opening hours and each stylist's rota decide which slots are offered, so online booking can never sell a slot that is not really there.

Do you take commission on bookings?

No. You pay a monthly subscription and that is it. We do not take a cut of your takings, we do not charge per booking, and we do not market your clients to other salons. Your client list is yours.

Can I move across from Phorest or another system?

Yes. The Daviana team helps move your clients and prices across. What can be moved depends on what your current system lets you export, so we look at your data on the demo and plan the changeover around your quietest week. Our honest comparison with Phorest says where each one wins.

Does it work for a salon group?

Yes. It was built for a group, not retrofitted to one. Each salon gets its own diary, and you can see each salon on its own or the whole group together.

What do I need to run it?

The diary, till and reporting run on what you already have: it works in a web browser and on iOS.

Is Daviana a good booking system for nail and beauty salons?

Yes. Every team member has their own column, every service books its own length, and eligibility decides who can perform what, so online booking only offers a treatment with people who actually do it. Hair, nails and beauty share one diary, and the AI Receptionist can book a manicure while the colour develops as a single visit.

Does it work as a salon till and POS?

Yes. You cash out against the appointment: services, retail, tips and payment type land on one bill, attributed to the stylist who did the work, with card, cash and gift card payments. Nothing is re-keyed into a second system.

How does the price compare with Fresha or Booksy?

On their published UK prices (checked 26 September 2026), Fresha is £14.95 a month on your own or £9.95 per bookable team member, plus 20% on each new marketplace client, and Booksy is £40 a month plus £5 per extra team member, plus VAT. Daviana is priced by team size, from £25 a month including VAT for one person, with no marketplace and no commission. For a small team Fresha can cost less; our UK salon software comparison sets out the full picture.
