How to use BurgundyBlend

How BurgundyBlend works.

Find the work you love, connect with a professional and book with clear expectations. Running a business? Start with your storefront and payment settings.

Find your professional

  1. Explore real work in The Chair, browse nearby services, or post what you need in The Ask.
  2. Open a business storefront to see services, prices, availability and the booking policy.
  3. Choose your service and time. Check the amount due now, balance due later and cancellation terms before confirming.

Turn Instagram visits into bookings

  1. Sign in to Manage Business and open Your storefront.
  2. Use Open storefront to check your public page, then Copy Instagram link.
  3. Add that link to your Instagram bio. Direct storefront visitors can book as guests by verifying their email; creating an account is optional.

Choose the right deposit for your business

  1. A 0% deposit allows ordinary bookings without collecting a card payment. Customers pay your business directly.
  2. To post your work to The Chair or reply with quotes through The Ask, set a deposit of at least 10% and finish connected payout setup.
  3. When applicable, the business pays a $3 Chair introduction fee or a $4 Ask booking fee from the online payment. Existing plan and waiver rules apply; these are not extra customer surcharges.
  4. A 10% setting is not enough for every service price. Your deposit must also cover the applicable booking fee and processing; the editor or quote screen shows the minimum price.
  5. A 100% deposit collects the full service price at booking. Always check the saved refund and cancellation policy.

Get discovered through The Chair and The Ask

  1. Complete your business profile, services and availability, then check your deposit and payout setup.
  2. Use the app to share your work in The Chair. Review the posting instructions and any account requirements shown before uploading.
  3. Open The Ask to review matching nearby requests. Send a private quote with a price and time; the customer chooses whether to book.

Manage a visit

  1. Customers open Bookings to review appointment details, message the business, or use available move and cancellation actions.
  2. Businesses use the front desk calendar to manage appointments and record walk-ins or phone bookings. Owner permissions determine staff access.
  3. If a business requests an intake form, open Prepare for your visit and sign in or verify your booking email. Answers stay in the secure form.
  4. After the business marks the appointment Completed, an optional tip link may be available. Online tipping requires salon readiness and feature activation; it is separate from the remaining service balance.
  5. Where available, iPhone and Android open the same secure web tipping page. You pay only the tip shown; BurgundyBlend adds no tipping fee. The salon receives it and covers processing; an employee is not automatically paid separately.
