Our story

Built from inside the chair.

Fourth-generation barbers. World-class app designers and engineers. One platform for the people who book, the people who cut, and the people who own the room. We built the work first. Then we built Blookd.

Origin

The industry taught us. The software followed.

Aren't you tired? A calendar in one place. Payments in another. Social media for reviews. A website for marketing. A different tool for booth rental. Another for the book.

That is not a business system. That is a heavy and unnecessary burden on an already challenging business.

Blookd is one system. Fifteen years in the shops and barber school behind it. Four locations. Two hundred successfully trained professionals. Over a million clients served with over 6,000 positive reviews online. Millions of dollars in annual revenue earned the long way.

Running a business should be simple.

The network

Three sides. One network.

Clients find the right professional.
Professionals get booked — or find a place to booth rent.
Hosts fill the chairs that would have sat empty.

The products

One network. Two apps.

Blookd is how clients discover professionals, compare services, and book.

Blookd Biz is how professionals run the business — services, products, marketing, hours, location, policies, payouts, and find new customers.

Blookd Rental is how space gets used. A chair, a room, or a studio. A day, a week, or a month. Hosts list what they have. Professionals book what they need and when they need it.

Use the app that matches the job.
