Why owners move to Booxt
No per-booking fees
StyleSeat takes a cut on new-client bookings. Booxt is one flat monthly price — book as many clients as you want.
Texting, not an app
Your clients book by text, no app install. You manage it by text too.
Never miss a call or text
Booxt answers both, 24/7, and books them while you work.
In fairness: StyleSeat’s marketplace can bring discovery from people searching for a stylist. Booxt has no marketplace.
