Hair is the appointment trade with the widest spread between the cheapest and most expensive thing on the menu, and the longest chair times at the top end. A balayage or a full colour correction can occupy the better part of a day, which means a no-show is not a lost hour, it is a lost day — and unlike a barber’s chair, that slot was booked weeks ago and cannot be refilled. Colour work adds a second problem: product is bought and mixed specifically for the client, so a cancellation costs materials as well as time. Both point to the same answer, which is that colour appointments need deposits in a way that a dry cut does not.
The billing structures this trade actually uses — and what each one means for getting paid. Every one of them can sit on a single rate card.
Cut, blow dry, colour, highlights, treatments.
Long and short services should be visibly different prices, because they are visibly different commitments.
Colour, extensions, anything over two hours.
A larger deposit on a longer slot is proportionate and clients read it as reasonable.
Colour corrections and extensions.
Charging for it (and crediting it) filters enquiries that were never going to book.
Colour clients on a six- to eight-week cycle.
Root touch-ups and toners billed as a plan rather than rebooked each time.
The payment problems specific to this trade, and what actually fixes each one.
A cancelled colour appointment costs a full day of chair time and the product you already bought.
Deposits scaled to the length of the appointment cover the exposure and change cancellation behaviour.
Consultations eat unpaid hours, particularly for corrections and extensions where the enquiry is exploratory.
Price the consultation and credit it against the service if they book.
Clients drift. Without a rebooking prompt the six-week cycle stretches, and eventually they try someone else.
A maintenance plan books and bills the cycle so drift never starts.

Generally yes. A colour appointment occupies far more chair time and involves product bought for that specific client, so a deposit proportionate to the booking is both fairer to you and easier for clients to accept.
Yes, and crediting it against the service if the client books is the usual approach. It filters out enquiries that were never going to proceed while costing genuine clients nothing.
Set up a maintenance package as a recurring service covering root touch-ups or toners at your recommended interval, so the cycle is scheduled rather than dependent on the client getting in touch.
Clients pay through your link — deposit at booking, balance at the salon. Payments process through Stripe and typically arrive fast.1
