What the columns are for
Pedicure chairs and manicure tables free up at different times, so the service boxes tell you which station the next person needs. A customer can tick more than one.
The tech column keeps requests in view, so a customer who asked for one tech is not called by another by mistake.
When the clipboard stops working
Paper works while the lobby is small. It stops when people look at a full room and leave without signing, when customers wait for one person, or when someone asks "how long?" and nobody knows. A sheet records arrivals. It can't show a wait, and it can't tell anyone it's their turn.
NextUp is the same list on a phone. Customers scan a code at the door, see their place and wait, and get a text when they're up. A TV in the lobby shows who's next. It's $29 a month per location with a 14-day free trial. More in Replace your paper sign-in sheet and Google Forms vs a real waitlist.
Common questions
Why is there no phone number column?
A sign-in sheet sits on the counter where every customer can read it. A column of names and phone numbers is a list anyone can photograph. If you want to text people when it is their turn, take the number somewhere private, such as a phone check-in page that only the shop can see.
How do I handle a mani and a pedi in one visit?
Have the customer tick both. When a pedicure chair opens first, start there, and keep their line on the sheet until both are done.
