Fresha
Fresha review
Fresha is built for beauty and wellness businesses that need more than a generic appointment form. Its business software combines appointment management with bookable team members, client communications and salon-focused tools, while its consumer marketplace can be part of how a salon is discovered.
Visit Fresha when you run a salon, spa or wellness business and want a booking platform designed around that setting.
What it does well
Fresha's published plans are framed around an independent business or bookable team members. It includes appointment reminders and allowances for messages and marketing emails, with a specialist booking and business-management focus. That makes it more natural than a meeting scheduler for a multi-practitioner salon or wellness team.
What to watch
Compare the total cost of using Fresha, not only the monthly software subscription. Team-member pricing, messaging allowances, optional services and marketplace-led customer acquisition can all matter. Marketplace fees and terms should be read carefully before treating marketplace bookings as equivalent to returning customers you bring yourself.
Verdict
Fresha is a strong specialist option for beauty and wellness businesses that want booking, client communication and salon tools in one product. A general service business that mainly wants simple booking and payments may find Square Appointments more direct.
Visit Fresha to see how its salon and wellness tools handle booking, reminders, payment and repeat visits.
