What Fair Flow is
Fair Flow is salon operations software that connects walk-ins, service tickets, schedules, time clock, tasks, inventory, and training. Its shared live turn tracker displays walk-in order and staff availability while recording turn counts and history. Team features include employee requests and an inbox, tasks, communication, training, and documents. The platform also lists inventory, media, dashboard analytics, and multi-location visibility. Fair Flow describes its queue as intended for salons, spas, and beauty businesses, especially teams of 10 or more. It runs on iOS and the web, with staff mobile access listed for iOS. The first location costs $99 a month, billed month to month, and includes unlimited staff and 5 GB storage; a 14-day trial comes before payment. Additional locations cost $79 a month each, and optional extra storage costs $10 a month per 10 GB. There is no setup fee or annual contract. Fair Flow does not process client payments and recommends keeping an existing booking platform.
