Bio & Introduction
Write a compelling bio that highlights:

Qualifications & Experience
- Add relevant beauty qualifications and licences
- List your experience (years, specialities, clientele)

Step 2: Create Your First Listing
Listings are how clients discover your services. Each listing represents a treatment or service you offer.
Go to Listings → Create Listing
Key fields:
- Service title: e.g. "Full Colour & Cut", "Gel Manicure", "Luxury Facial"
- Category: Hair · Nails · Skin · Lashes · Brows · Massage · Other
- Duration: Accurate appointment length (affects client scheduling)
- Price: Your fee per appointment
- Location type: Mobile · Salon/Studio · Home salon
- Description: Detail what's included, any prerequisites (e.g. patch test), aftercare
Multiple Services? Create a separate listing for each treatment so clients can book exactly what they want.
Step 3: Set Your Availability
Go to Account → Availability to set your working hours and block off holidays.
- Set regular weekly availability
- Block off dates you're unavailable
- Clients can only book within your available slots
Step 4: Set Up Stripe Payouts
You need a Stripe Connect account to receive payments.
- Go to Account → Payments → Set Up Payouts
- Follow the Stripe onboarding flow
- Add your bank account details
- Verify your identity
Payout Schedule: Earnings are released 24 hours after an appointment completes and paid out weekly to your bank account.
Step 5: Get Your First Booking
Once your listing is live:
- Share your Beautywise profile link on social media

Common Questions
How quickly will I receive payments? Earnings are released 24 hours after the appointment and paid weekly to your bank.
Can I cancel a booking? Yes, but frequent cancellations affect your rating. Cancel well in advance and notify the client immediately.
What if a client doesn't show up? No-show policies are set per listing. If the client cancels within your policy window, you may retain a cancellation fee per your listing terms.
Do I need public liability insurance? We recommend all mobile and home-salon professionals carry public liability insurance. It is your responsibility to maintain appropriate cover.
