Invoice Koi

Invoicing for hair stylists

Most of the week takes payment at the chair and needs no paperwork at all. The rest of it does: a bridal morning with five people in it, the salon you rent a chair from, a shoot that pays on invoice thirty days later, and a stockist who wants a document before they can pay for the products.

What hair stylists
put on an invoice.

These go in your price book once, with your own prices against them. After that a line is one tap: the item, the description, the unit and the price fill themselves, and the totals resolve underneath.

Prices are yours. Invoice Koi ships a handful of round placeholder lines to start from and never fills your book with figures you did not set.

02Why hair stylists use it

Three things that
save the evening.

Your price list, already in it

Cut, color, bridal per head and the trial each sit in the price book at your price. Building a bridal invoice is picking who was in the room.

Booth rent, invoiced every week without asking

A recurring invoice on a weekly cadence drafts itself, whether you are the stylist paying it or the salon collecting it. It goes out when you send it, not before.

Color stock as a real cost

Photograph the distributor receipt and it is read into an expense with its tax. The reports then put stock against takings rather than leaving it as a feeling about the month.

03 · Questions

Asked by hair stylists.

Can I take card payments through it?

No. Koi writes the document and records what you have been paid; it does not process money. What the client pays by, and where, stays between you and them.

How do I invoice a bridal party of five?

One document with a line per person, or one line with five as the quantity. Grouped under a heading, the morning reads as one job with a subtotal on it.

Can I invoice the salon for booth rent?

Yes, and the other way about. A recurring invoice on a weekly or monthly cadence covers either arrangement.
