Confirmation texts for hair extension specialists

What to say when you confirm an appointment by text as a hair extension specialist.

Short answer: send the day, the time, the service and one easy way to cancel, and ask for a one-letter reply. Below are copy-paste confirmation texts for a hair extension specialist, the exact texts Morningside sends, and what a client should say back.

The text to send when someone books a install

Copy this and fill in the brackets. It works from your own phone, with any booking tool or none.

Confirmation text for hair extension specialists

Hi [Name], it's [Your name]. You're booked for your install on [day] at [time]. Reply C to confirm, or CANCEL if that no longer works. See you then!

Keep it to the facts: the day, the time, what was booked, and how to cancel. Put parking, the address and your policy on your booking page and link to it instead of stacking them into the text.

When to send it

Send the confirmation the moment the booking is made, so the client knows it landed. Morningside sends the confirmation when the client books, a reminder 24 hours before and another two hours before. For an install that's hard to refill, the confirmation and the 24-hour reminder do the most work. If you want an earlier nudge, the early reminder can be set up to 72 hours out.

The texts Morningside sends

These are the real templates, filled in with a made-up business called Sample Extensions Studio. The note at the end of the booking text is the one line you write yourself.

When they book (sample)Morningside: Your Sample Extensions Studio extension install is booked for Wed, Oct 14, 2:00 PM. Please arrive with clean, dry hair and your reference photos. Text me if you're running late, since the install is booked as one long block. Msg&data rates may apply. Reply STOP to opt out, HELP for help, CANCEL to cancel.
When they reply C (sample)Morningside: Thanks! Your Sample Extensions Studio extension install on Wed, Oct 14, 2:00 PM is confirmed. Reply CANCEL to cancel.

How to reply when you get a confirmation text

If you are the client, a short answer is enough. Reply with the letter the text asks for, or send something like this:

Client reply

Confirmed, see you [day] at [time]. Thanks!

If you can’t make it, say so as early as you can. A hair extension specialist can usually offer the time to someone else if they hear before the day.

A reply you can send back

When a client confirms, a one-line answer closes the loop and restates the time.

Reply to a confirmed install

Thanks [Name], you're confirmed for [day] at [time]. If anything changes, text me by [time] so I can offer the spot to someone else.

A confirmation is the first of two or three messages. See the reminder texts for hair extension specialists for the follow-ups, and the no-show policy template for hair extension specialists so clients know what notice means. More examples are in appointment confirmation text examples.

Questions people ask

What if a client cancels by replying CANCEL?

The client gets a reply confirming the cancellation, with a link to rebook, and the time opens up on your calendar. A cancelled install can still be refilled if there's time, and a no-show can't.

Should the reminder include prep steps?

Keep the reminder to the time and the confirm. Prep steps belong in your confirmation note or a separate message you send yourself, since these texts are for the appointment only.

How should I word the confirmation note?

Say the one thing clients need to know, such as bringing reference photos or arriving on time. Don't include links or promotional language.

Do my clients need to download an app?

No. Clients book from your link in their browser and get the reminders as ordinary text messages. They confirm by replying with one letter, cancel by replying CANCEL, and can stop the texts by replying STOP.

Can I send these reminders by hand instead?

Yes, the copy-paste version above works from your own phone. The catch is time: someone has to remember to send each one at the right hour, every day. Morningside sends them for you at 24 hours and 2 hours by default, and you can move the early one up to 72 hours out.
