The record

Purpose: BackBar Pro manages clients, formulas, bookings, finances, and other business tasks for independent hairstylists.
Client records: Client profiles can include service history, formulas, photos, hair profiles, allergies, and sensitivities.
Formula vault: The formula vault stores searchable color formulas with brands, weights, developer volumes, and processing times.
Booking: Clients can book through a stylist's online booking page, with deposits, waitlist offers, and configurable cancellation rules.
Payments: Payments include cards through Stripe, payment QR codes for Venmo and Zelle, cash logging, gift cards, and text or email receipts.
Calendar integrations: Bookings can sync to Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, or Outlook, and the iPhone and Android apps can use selected phone calendars to block availability.
Import and export: Users can import clients from another app by CSV, and can export their account data as spreadsheet files.
Premium limits: Premium adds the Color Bar, full inventory suite, full tax engine, year-end tax package, and advanced analytics; the Color Bar and full inventory suite are not included on Basic.
Security: The maker says data is encrypted in transit and at rest, client data is not sold or used to train AI models, and card numbers are handled by Stripe rather than BackBar Pro.
Support: Support is available in-app, by text, or by email, and the maker says replies usually arrive within a few hours.
Trial: The 14-day trial requires no credit card, runs on Premium, and leaves the account in view-only mode when it ends unless the user subscribes.
Intended users: The maker describes BackBar Pro as built for independent hairstylists, while its App Store listing also names colorists, booth renters, and small studio owners.
iPhone Tap to Pay: Tap to Pay on iPhone lets users accept contactless payments with a supported iPhone and the BackBar Pro app without an extra reader.
