In either direction, from the "Notify client" option on any appointment.

Vono was built around one idea: the people behind the chair, the booth, and the table deserve tools that actually work for them, and a community that grows with them.
Join the community
I'm an Air Force veteran and a licensed barber with more than 35 years in this industry. I started as an apprentice, went on to own my own shop, served as an NC State Board examiner, and today I lead the barbering program and the instructor prep course at the community college.
I built Vono because I kept seeing the same gaps from every side of the chair. As a barber, there were features I wanted in an app that I could never find. As an instructor, I saw what students needed to stay on track. And as a professional, I knew what clients were missing. Vono brings all of it together in one place.
This industry gave me a career, a community gave me a chance, and I am giving you my vision.VONO
