Faster, Smarter & More Flexible: Meet HUSL v2.28
Our biggest update yet is here â packed with smarter payments, faster bookings, better branding, and a smoother experience for every stylist, barber, beautician and makeup artist.
If you’ve ever wished your salon software kept getting smarter, faster and more flexible as your business grows, you’re going to love what we’ve just released.
HUSL v2.28 is officially live, and you know what? This is one of our biggest updates yet.
We’ve rebuilt the app on a newer, faster foundation and introduced some seriously helpful features designed to save you time, keep your business organised, and make your client experience even better.
And remember – HUSL isn’t traditional salon software.
We don’t make money by charging you for software subscriptions. We’re a retail marketplace built for hairdressing professionals, helping you access professional products, earn retail income (without stocking it), and grow your business while providing the tools you need to run it.
đ¸ More Flexible Payments, Less Headaches
Every business operates differently.
Maybe you accept gift vouchers. Maybe your client paid through your own external card system. Maybe they’re using a membership credit.
Now with Offline Payments, you can record those transactions directly inside HUSL and even split a bill across multiple payment methods.
That means:
- Cleaner record keeping
- More accurate reporting
- Better receipts for clients
- Easier end-of-day reconciliation
Everything is tracked properly and appears across receipts, customer records and sales reports.
Because let’s be honest, trying to remember how someone paid three weeks ago (because you left the transaction ‘open’) isn’t anyone’s idea of fun.
đ Rebook Clients Before They Walk Out
Want to improve client retention without adding extra admin?
You can now rebook a client’s next appointment immediately after checkout.
No jumping back through the calendar.
No searching for their profile.
No unnecessary taps.
Just complete the sale and lock in their next appointment while they’re already standing at the counter.
It’s one of those small changes that can have a surprisingly big impact on your future bookings.
đ¨ Your Brand, Front and Centre
Your clients book with you, not your software.
That’s why all customer-facing emails now automatically carry your business branding and theme.
From:
- Booking confirmations
- Invoices
- Receipts
- Refund notifications
- Online booking communications
Everything feels more professional, polished and aligned with your business.
We’ve also refreshed the online booking email templates to create a cleaner, more modern experience for your clients.
⥠Faster Updates & A Smoother Experience
One of the biggest behind-the-scenes improvements in v2.28 is something you may not even notice directly.
The app can now receive smaller over-the-air updates, meaning many fixes and improvements can reach you faster without always waiting for a full App Store or Google Play release.
Combined with our new app foundation, this creates a smoother, faster experience across the board.
Pro tip: Still make sure automatic app updates are turned on so you never miss new major features and improvements.
đ Heaps of Little Improvements That Add Up
Sometimes the most valuable updates are the ones that quietly remove frustrations.
A few highlights include:
- Cleaner online booking setup process
- Booking notes can always be added or edited on confirmation screens
- Accepted online bookings can now be updated with notes
- Old abandoned POS (open) carts automatically clear after 7 days
- Real-time calendar updates
- Improved dashboard displays
- Major Android display fixes
- Better keyboard behaviour on mobile devices
- Fixed cut-off text and overlapping buttons
These improvements might seem small individually, but together they make your day-to-day experience significantly smoother.
đ Built for the Modern Hairdressing Industry
Every update we release is driven by one goal:
Helping professionals spend less time on admin and more time doing what they love.
Whether you’re a salon owner, independent stylist, barber, beautician or makeup artist, HUSL is designed to support your business growth while giving you access to professional products and retail opportunities.
We’re building more than an app.
We’re building a community who want smarter tools, better support and more opportunities to grow.
