Pentarch BeautySuite ยท salons and spas

The front desk, the bookings and fair commissions, on one screen.

Front desk, online booking, payments and staff commissions in one system for salons, spas and barbershops. Built with a busy bridal salon, so it handles real days like a four-stylist wedding package before breakfast.

Live for Glamour by Beth, the salon that owns Glamourvine Hair & Beauty College.

Run the salon floor without the notebook

Reception logs every job as it happens, so takings, stock and each stylist's pay add up at the end of the day.

  • Bookings and walk-ins

    Online booking from your website and a front-desk diary for walk-ins, calls and WhatsApp.

  • Services and packages

    Services, prices and packages, including bridal teams with several stylists on one booking.

  • Payments and takings

    Cash, M-Pesa, card or voucher on each bill, with a day close against the cash drawer.

  • Fair commissions

    Each stylist's share calculated from the jobs she did, even on shared bookings.

  • Photos and portfolios

    Session photos saved to the client record and to each stylist's portfolio.

  • Clients who come back

    Visits, spending, loyalty points and birthdays, with one tap to WhatsApp.

  • Stock and back bar

    Retail and back-bar products with stock value and reorder levels.

  • Salon and college together

    Runs alongside the Pentarch Portal, so a beauty college and its training salon share one system.
