Early access

Every chair is its own business.

Same Roof runs the salon where stylists rent their chairs. Owners see the floor and get the rent by Direct Debit. Stylists book chairs, keep their own diary and take their own clients. One app, in your salon’s colours.

Two kinds of business in one room.

Most salon software assumes the owner employs everyone. In a rent-a-chair salon the owner looks after the building and the rent, and each stylist runs a business of their own. Same Roof gives each side what they need, in the same app.

For the salon owner

Paid by the salon
  • A live floor plan. Draw your room once and see who is in which chair today.
  • Invoices that write themselves. Monthly, in your salon’s name, with a PDF for each.
  • Rent by Direct Debit. Collected at the end of the month and marked paid when it lands.
  • Fill empty chairs. Offer a free chair to your stylists in one tap.

For the stylist renting a chair

Free for stylists
  • Book a chair your way. By the hour, half day or day, weekly, or a standing booking.
  • Your own diary. Day, week and month, with your services, hours and days off.
  • A booking page that’s yours. Your photo, colours and work. Clients book straight from it.
  • Bring your clients. Import them from your phone, a CSV file or a vCard. They stay yours.

Everything under the roof.

What’s working today, and what’s being built next.

Rent

Every chair on a live floor plan. Rent invoiced in your salon’s name and collected by Direct Debit, extra days paid by card.

Live

Chair booking

Stylists book by the hour, half day or day, every week or every two weeks, or keep a standing booking.

Live

Diary and booking page

Each stylist’s own diary, and a page their clients book from, with confirmations and a reminder the day before.

Live

The app

On iPhone and on the web, in your salon’s name and colours. Sign in with Face ID or a passkey.

iPhone in testing

Frundesk

A front desk for each stylist. It answers her clients in her own voice and books them into her diary.

In the works

Rent arrives without a reminder.

Set it up once. After that the invoice goes out, the Direct Debit is taken and the money lands, every month. Stylists’ bank details go to GoCardless, never to you or to Same Roof.

  1. Once

    You set the rent

    Monthly rent or a day rate for each stylist.

  2. A few working days before

    Invoice sent

    With the amount and the date, as Direct Debit rules require.

  3. Around the end of the month

    Rent collected

    By Direct Debit, and marked paid in the app.

  4. A couple of working days later

    In your account

    Extra days booked in the month were already paid by card.

Why Same Roof exists

Same Roof started inside a working salon in Soho, where every stylist rents their chair. I built one app for the owner and the stylists, with the salon’s name on it.

If you run a salon like that, I’d like to hear how you do it today.
