The daily board resets every night at midnight (Paris).ShearHold is a payment tool built around one specific salon problem: the empty chair. When a client books, ShearHold vaults their card through Stripe or Square and records a timestamped agreement to the deposit or cancellation policy. If the client shows up, nothing happens. If they no-show or cancel inside the posted window, the stylist taps once, the fee is charged to the card on file, and a receipt plus a rebooking link go out automatically. In short, it turns a written cancellation policy into one that actually collects.
You found ShearHold on premierdelaclasse.lol, a satirical leaderboard where rank is bought rather than earned. There is no jury, no score, and no merit test: a listing holds the spot its bid pays for, nothing more. So read this page as a plain description of what ShearHold does for salons, not as a ruling on how good it is. Every figure below comes from ShearHold's own website; the leaderboard supplies none of its own.
What ShearHold actually does
The core loop is simple. Stylists set a deposit or no-show fee per service, either as a flat dollar amount or as a percentage of the ticket. At booking, the client enters card details, which are vaulted securely by Stripe or Square rather than stored by ShearHold itself. The client also agrees to the policy, and that agreement is captured with a timestamp so there is a record of what was accepted and when.
From there the work is one tap. When someone fails to show or cancels late, staff mark the appointment and ShearHold auto-charges the fee that was posted for that service. The client receives a receipt tied to the policy they agreed to, and the fee notice includes a rebooking link so the freed slot can be filled without a separate follow-up. The stylist never has to chase a payment or have an awkward conversation about it at the front desk.
Who it is built for
ShearHold aims squarely at people who feel a missed appointment in their own pocket. That starts with booth renters and suite owners, who carry the cost of an empty chair directly, and extends to commission and independent stylists who book their own clients. Colorists, extension specialists, and anyone running long, high-value services (where a no-show wipes out a full afternoon) are an obvious fit.
It also scales up to salon owners managing several chairs and multiple stylists under one policy, so the shop is not relying on each person to enforce deposits by hand. The pricing tiers are shaped around that range, from one chair to a group of locations, which is a fair signal of who ShearHold expects to sign up.
What it costs
ShearHold publishes three monthly plans. Booth Renter is 25 dollars a month, covering one chair with unlimited holds. Salon is 59 dollars a month for up to eight chairs and multiple stylists. Salon Group is 129 dollars a month for unlimited chairs across up to six locations. Every plan includes unlimited held bookings, so the price scales with chairs and sites, not with how often you use it.
One thing to keep in mind: card processing fees are separate. Those are charged by Stripe or Square at their own negotiated rates, on top of the ShearHold subscription. So the monthly number is the software cost, and the payment processor takes its cut of each deposit or fee you actually collect.
The numbers ShearHold puts forward
ShearHold backs its pitch with figures it states on its own site. It reports 1,340 US salons using the service and 1.94 million dollars in deposits and fees processed in 2025. It also claims a median setup time of 11 minutes, which frames the product as something a busy stylist can turn on between clients rather than a project.
The headline comparison it offers is on no-show rates: 1.9 percent on held bookings versus 9.4 percent without holds, and 68 percent of freed slots refilled within 24 hours. These are ShearHold's own numbers, presented here as claims rather than independently checked results. Treat them the way you would treat any vendor's self-reported stats, and note again that none of them come from premierdelaclasse.lol.
