Pick the notice window, set the late-cancellation, no-show and deposit rules, choose a gentle or firm voice, and this page assembles the same policy three ways at once: a paragraph for the website, one line for the booking confirmation, and a sign for the front desk. No account, nothing uploaded.
Our salon sets your appointment time aside just for you. If your plans change, please let us know at least 24 hours ahead so the slot can go to someone on the waiting list. Cancellations with less than 24 hours of notice are charged 50% of the service price, which covers the time we could not fill. If you miss an appointment without letting us know, we charge 100% of the service price. Running late? Please call. We hold the slot for 15 minutes; after that we may need to shorten the service so the next guest starts on time. Thank you for understanding — it keeps the schedule fair for every client.
Our salon: appointment confirmed. Cancel or change at least 24 hrs ahead. Late cancellation: 50% of the service price. No-show: 100% of the service price. Arrive within 15 min of your time. Thank you.

Not legal advice. Whether a salon may charge a cancellation fee, keep a deposit or bill a card on file depends on consumer-protection rules that differ by state and country — the FTC and state attorneys general in the US, the national consumer authority in each European country. Check locally before charging anyone.
Thank you for booking with us. Every slot is set aside for one client, so if your plans change, please let us know at least 24 hours ahead and we will offer the time to someone on the waiting list. We do not charge for late cancellations at the moment, but after two missed appointments we will ask for a deposit on future bookings. Thank you for understanding.
Appointments need 48 hours of notice to cancel or move. Cancellations inside 48 hours are charged 50% of the service price; a missed appointment with no notice is charged in full, settled at your next visit. Arrivals more than 15 minutes late are shortened to the time left, at the full price. Booking with us means accepting this policy.
Color, keratin and any service over two hours need a 30% deposit at booking, which comes off your bill on the day. Cancel or reschedule at least 24 hours ahead and the deposit carries over to your next appointment; inside 24 hours, or if you do not arrive, the deposit is kept.
Nail and lash appointments run to the minute, so please arrive on time. We hold your slot for 15 minutes; after that we will rebook you for another day so the next client is not kept waiting, and the visit counts as a late cancellation. Please give 24 hours of notice to cancel or change.
Online bookings are held with a card on file; nothing is charged when you book. Cancellations with less than 24 hours of notice, and missed appointments, are charged a $25 fee to the card we hold.

The policy is written; enforcing it is the booking system’s job — reminders that go out on time, a deposit collected inside the booking flow, the rule applied without the front desk chasing anyone. The guide walks through the tests that separate real booking from a contact form wearing a Booking label, and runs Naratake’s own booking section through the same tests.
Read how to choose a salon booking systemMost hair and nail salons ask for 24 hours. Color, extensions and anything that blocks two or three hours justify 48, because a gap that size is harder to refill on the day. Pick one number and handle exceptions privately; a policy with five conditions is one nobody reads.
Many salons write it. Whether you can collect it depends on two things: a card on file or a deposit taken at booking, and the consumer-protection rules where you trade — some places cap cancellation charges at a reasonable estimate of the loss. Check locally, then write only what you can enforce.
A deposit is paid at booking and is deducted from the bill when the client comes in; cancel late or fail to show, and it is kept. A cancellation fee is charged after the fact, which is only possible with a card on file or at the next visit. For new clients a deposit is far easier to enforce than a fee.
Three places: the booking page or a “Policies” section on your website, the confirmation message the booking system sends, and a sign at the front desk. Same rule, three lengths — this page assembles all three — and a client who read it before booking is one you can charge without a fight.
