Whish Pay deposits
Hold a deposit before a full-day session is booked, so a no-show never costs you the chair.
Take deposits up front, book multi-session pieces with the right artist, and cut no-shows that cost you a whole day. Built for Lebanon, in Arabic and English.
A no-show on a full-day session is a day of lost income. Hjezle holds a Whish Pay deposit the moment a client books, in LBP or USD, so only serious clients lock a chair. The deposit shows against the appointment, so the artist always knows it's covered.
See how it worksFrom the first consult to the last touch-up, every session is held and paid for.
Hold a deposit before a full-day session is booked, so a no-show never costs you the chair.
Book a sleeve or back piece across several sittings at once, spaced to let skin heal between sessions.
Clients choose the artist whose style fits the piece, or take the first free slot for flash and walk-ins.
Collect reference images, placement, age verification and consent before they sit in the chair.
Session and aftercare reminders land where clients actually read them, with prep notes attached.
Add consultation, small, medium and large pieces, full-day sessions, cover-ups, touch-ups, and piercing. Set a duration and a deposit for each one.
Give each artist a profile, portfolio, and working hours. Set their styles so clients can pick the right hand for the job.

Running a tattoo studio is half art and half logistics. The art is yours. This guide covers the booking side: how to set up a menu, deposits, and intake that keep your chairs full with the right clients and your artists focused on the work, not the back-and-forth.
A tattoo menu is not one line that says "tattoo". Split it into the bookings you actually take: consultation, small piece, medium piece, large piece, full-day session, cover-up, touch-up, and piercing. Each one carries a different time block and a different deposit, and clients understand the studio better the moment they see it laid out.
Keep the names plain and the descriptions honest. A consultation is for talking through a design and quoting, not getting tattooed, so say so. When the menu matches how the work really happens, you get fewer surprised clients and fewer arguments at the chair.
Session lengths in this trade swing wildly. A small wrist piece might take forty minutes while a full-day session runs six hours or more. Set realistic blocks per service and add buffers for setup, stencil, and cleanup so a long session never bleeds into the next client's slot.
If you genuinely cannot predict the length, book the consultation first and let the artist set the real session afterward. A short paid consultation that turns into an accurate booking beats a guessed slot that throws the whole day off.
Deposits are the single biggest protection a studio has. When a client no-shows a full-day session, the artist loses income they cannot recover that day. Require a Whish Pay deposit on booking, sized to the service, so the people who reserve your peak slots have skin in the game.
Be clear about how the deposit works: it comes off the final price, and it is forfeited on a no-show or a late cancellation. Put that policy on the booking page in Arabic and English so nobody can claim they didn't know. A visible, fair policy does more than chasing money afterward.
Big work takes more than one sitting, and the easiest time to book the next session is at the end of the current one. Set the follow-up there and then with the same artist, leaving enough days for the skin to heal before the next pass.
Treat each session as its own appointment with its own time and deposit, linked to the same client. That keeps the project organised, makes pricing transparent across sittings, and means a half-finished sleeve never falls through the cracks.
The details that change a tattoo should arrive before the client does. Your intake should capture reference images, size, exact placement, skin tone notes, and whether it's a cover-up of existing work. With that in hand, the artist quotes accurately and preps the right stencil instead of improvising on the day.
Build age and consent confirmation into the same step. A client confirming they are of age and agreeing to the studio's terms at booking protects both the artist and the business, and it removes an awkward conversation from the start of the session.
Clients follow artists, not studios. Someone who saw a fine-line piece on Instagram wants that specific artist, and booking them with the wrong hand ends in disappointment. Give each artist a profile with their portfolio, styles, and own availability so the client chooses correctly from the start.
Leave room for flexibility too. Keep a house option for walk-ins and clients who just want a small piece from whoever is free, while still steering big custom work to the artist who specialises in that style.
A no-show on a long session is the most expensive thing that can happen to your week. Automatic WhatsApp confirmations and reminders reach clients where they actually read, and a reminder a day before a full-day session gives them time to confirm or move it.
Every reminder carries a one-tap reschedule link, so a client with a real conflict shifts the slot instead of ghosting. That single link turns lost days into rebooked ones, and it saves your front desk from chasing people on the phone.
The work isn't done when the client walks out. A short WhatsApp message a day or two later with aftercare reminders shows you care about how the piece heals, and well-healed tattoos are the ones that get posted and bring referrals.
The same follow-up is a natural moment to invite a touch-up booking once the tattoo has settled, usually a few weeks out. Offering the slot at the right time keeps the piece looking sharp and brings the client back through the door.
When every booking carries the service, deposit, references, and assigned artist, the day runs itself. Whoever opens the studio sees who is coming in, what they're getting, and that the deposit is paid, without digging through DMs or a paper book.
If you run more than one location, give each branch its own calendar and reporting, with a branch-accountant role for the person who handles money there. Everyone sees what they need and nothing they don't.
You don't need a dashboard full of charts. Watch a handful of numbers: how many bookings each artist takes, your no-show rate before and after deposits, and which services fill the calendar versus which sit empty. Those tell you where the money and the leaks are.
Use the customer database to see who comes back and who you've not seen in a while. A simple promotion to past clients, or a nudge to finish a multi-session piece, often does more than any ad spend.
Yes. Hjezle uses Whish Pay to take a deposit the moment a client books, in LBP or USD. You set the deposit per service, so a full-day session can require more than a small piece. The deposit shows against the appointment and comes off the final price.
Your intake form captures references, size, exact placement, and cover-up notes when the client books, so nothing arrives by DM at the last minute. You can also collect age and consent confirmation in the same step. The artist opens each appointment with everything needed to quote and prep.
Yes. Each artist gets a profile with portfolio, styles, and their own availability, so clients pick the right hand for the job. You can still offer a house option for walk-ins and small pieces. Big custom work gets steered to the artist who specialises in that style.
You book each session as its own appointment with the same artist, leaving a healing gap between sittings. Each session carries its own time and deposit but stays linked to the client. That keeps long projects organised and pricing clear across every sitting.
Confirmations and reminders go out automatically over WhatsApp, where Lebanese clients actually read them. Each one has a one-tap reschedule link, so a client with a conflict moves the slot instead of disappearing. Combined with deposits, this protects the long sessions that cost you the most.
Yes. Your page works in both Arabic and English with full right-to-left layout, on your own branded link at yourbusiness.hjezle.com. Times run on Beirut time and prices show in LBP and USD. Clients book 24/7 with no app to install and no account to create.
