The AI phone receptionist for barbershops.

A busy chair means a ringing phone nobody can reach. Ringmere picks up on the first ring, books the cut, and keeps the walk-ins and the regulars flowing.

The missed-call problem

Sound familiar?

  • One barber, one phone, a full chair
  • Peak Saturday rush when you can’t stop
  • Regulars who want their usual slot with their usual barber

Every one of those is a booking walking to a competitor. Ringmere answers before it does.

Questions from barbershops

Good to know.

Does it do walk-in style bookings?
Yes, it books into your live availability so callers get a real slot, not a maybe.
Can regulars request their barber?
Yes, it can book to a named barber and their hours.
Can I keep my number?
Yes, connect the number on your shopfront and cards; nothing changes for your customers.
Is Ringmere an answering service for barbershops?
Yes, and a virtual receptionist too. Like an answering service, it picks up every call 24/7 under your business name. Like a virtual receptionist, it answers questions, takes messages and books appointments straight into your diary. Because it is an AI receptionist it costs from £49 a month, never puts a caller on hold, and on Growth and Pro replies on WhatsApp and text as well.
