How to Turn On Your SMS Appointment Reminders
Never miss a client again - keep your column full and running smoothly
Why SMS reminders matter
SMS reminders help reduce no-shows, last-minute cancellations, and those “Oops, I totally forgot!” messages we’ve all received.
Most industries send reminders 72 hours before an appointment - because it gives enough time to refill a gap if a client cancels.
Delivering reminders automatically means less admin for you and a more reliable, predictable schedule.
How to turn on your SMS reminders (step-by-step)
-
Open your HUSL home screen
-
Tap your profile image (top left)
-
Toggle ‘SMS Reminders’ ON
-
(Optional but recommended) Tick ‘Allow Auto-renewal’
-
Tap ‘Enable Reminders’
Important
-
Ensure your credit or debit card is updated in Payments settings - this is required for reminders to send.
-
If a client’s mobile number is wrong or outdated, the SMS cannot be delivered.
→ Quick tip: update numbers while your client is in the chair, during processing time.
💡 Tips
Do a quick “client card refresh” every few months
Like a clarifying shampoo for your database — keeps everything clean and updated.
Turn on auto-renewal
So your reminders never stop mid-week.
