Scheduling, explained
What is salon scheduling software?
Salon scheduling software keeps every booking, walk-in and staff shift on one calendar, so the right person and room are free at the right time and clients turn up. In Bahrain it also has to follow the year: split shifts, Ramadan timings that run past midnight and the rush before Eid.
- Staff and room views, with cleanup time per room
- Split shifts and Ramadan timings per staff member
- Waitlist, locked bookings and statuses at a glance
Quick answer: Salon scheduling software is the salon's live calendar: it shows every stylist and room in one place, handles walk-ins and WhatsApp bookings together, runs split shifts for Ramadan and reminds clients automatically. DINGG does this in Bahrain with up to four WhatsApp reminders per booking, a waitlist for busy dates and room checks at the desk and online.
Why it matters
Ramadan turns one working day into two
In Ramadan, Bahrain's Labour Law limits a Muslim employee's day to six hours and 36 hours a week, while clients book before iftar and late into the night. Ramadan 2027 is expected to begin around 8 February, with Eid al-Fitr about a month later.
DINGG's calendar follows each person's split shift, holds rooms with their cleanup time and sends every client up to four WhatsApp reminders, so both rushes run without a double booking.

As the owner of Holy Nails, I've been using DINGG, a salon management software, and it has been a game-changer for our business. … One of the standout features is the automated reminders and notifications, which have drastically reduced no-shows and late arrivals. … The inventory tracking feature has also been a huge help, ensuring we never run out of essential supplies.

Compare to other software I found DINGG Software much easier to use. Perhaps that's because of the training i received…

The calendar in DINGG
Built for the way salons in Bahrain book
Views
Stylists, therapists and rooms side by side
Switch between staff and room views, drag to reschedule and see breaks, week-offs and leave. A treatment room, a Moroccan bath or a pedicure chair is held for the service time plus its cleanup time, and the calendar warns when no room is free. An online booking with no stylist chosen goes to the least-busy stylist, so the day's work is shared evenly, while clients who want their favourite simply pick her. Open the client from any booking to see her last visits, colour formula, pinned notes and dues.
- Staff and room views
- Cleanup time per room
- The client one click from the booking
Ramadan & shifts
Split shifts and Ramadan timings
Give each person their own hours, including split shifts that break for iftar and run late into the night. Business hours can be split too, so the calendar and the booking page only offer the slots you actually work.
- Split shifts per staff member
- Split business hours
- Slots that follow the roster
Walk-ins
Walk-ins and appointments in one queue
Walk-ins for threading, blow-dries and henna get a token and a place in line beside booked clients, so the desk and the client both know who is next.
- Token queue
- Walk-ins beside bookings
- Queue notifications
Reminders
Reminders that keep the book full
Confirmations and up to four reminders per booking go out on WhatsApp, with the booking link inside, and consultation and consent forms go out with the confirmation for the services you choose. Long or Eid-week services can take a deposit at the desk, recorded against the booking, with your cancellation and no-show fees, and regulars can be booked as a recurring series.
- Up to four reminders
- Forms with the confirmation
- Deposits and no-show fees
Control
Waitlist, locks and statuses
Put clients on a waitlist for the dates they want and merge them into the booking when a slot opens, lock a bridal or VIP booking so nobody moves it by mistake, and see tentative, completed, cancelled and no-show bookings at a glance. Every edit and cancellation is in the appointment log.
- Waitlist across dates
- Appointment lock
- Statuses and audit log

Questions, answered
Salon scheduling software: frequently asked questions
What is the best salon scheduling software in Bahrain?
Look for staff and room calendars, walk-ins and WhatsApp bookings in one place, split shifts for Ramadan, double-booking checks, deposits and automatic reminders. DINGG does all of this and links each booking to billing, commission and the client's history.
Which salon software has built-in scheduling features?
DINGG does: staff and room calendars with cleanup time, split shifts and Ramadan timings, walk-ins in a token queue, a waitlist, appointment locks, recurring bookings and up to four WhatsApp reminders per booking, with the client's history one click from each booking.
Can I set Ramadan timings and split shifts?
Yes. Give each staff member their own hours, including split shifts that break for iftar and run past midnight, and split your business hours so only working slots are offered.
Can DINGG stop double bookings?
Yes. Every booking is checked against the staff member's and the room's calendar, including cleanup time, at the desk and online.
Can each stylist have their own price for a service?
Yes. A service can carry a standard price, a senior-level price and a price for a named stylist, and the booking picks the right one.
Does DINGG send appointment reminders on WhatsApp?
Yes. Confirmations and up to four reminders per booking go out on WhatsApp, with the booking link inside the message.
How do I handle the rush before Eid?
Open your Eid hours early, take a deposit at the desk on long services, keep a waitlist for the busiest dates and lock bridal bookings so they can't be moved by mistake.
Does DINGG have a waitlist?
Yes. Add clients to a waitlist for one or several dates and merge an entry into the booking when a slot opens. The desk works the list; clients are not alerted automatically.
Can DINGG share bookings fairly across my team?
Yes. When a client books online without choosing a stylist, DINGG gives the booking to the least-busy stylist, so work is spread evenly across the team. Clients who prefer a particular stylist can still pick her.
Can I see every branch's calendar on one login?
Yes. Owners and managers move between branches on one login, with access set branch by branch, and each branch's bookings, staff and rooms are in the same system.
What is an appointment lock?
A locked booking can't be dragged, resized or have services removed, so a bridal, VIP or long colour booking stays where you put it.
Does DINGG work for spas, with treatment rooms and Moroccan baths?
Yes. Map each service to the treatment room, Moroccan bath or machine it needs and set its cleanup time; DINGG books the therapist and the room together, warns when no room is free and hides full slots from online booking.
Does DINGG manage walk-ins?
Yes. Walk-ins join a token queue beside the day's appointments, so everyone can see who is next.
Can clients check themselves in?
Yes. Set up a tablet at reception as a self check-in kiosk, so arriving clients check themselves in for their appointment.
How do I move from a paper appointment book?
Send us your client list and your price list (a photo will do), and DINGG's team sets up your services, staff and rooms; your team is trained before your first day.
Does DINGG use spa or clinic words?
Yes. The wording changes with your trade (salon, spa, clinic or academy), and the app runs in 8 languages, Arabic and English among them.
Can clients book online?
Yes. Your salon gets its own booking page with live availability and bookings confirmed on WhatsApp, and the AI assistant books on WhatsApp in English or Arabic.
