FadeFlow: From “Can I book Saturday?” to “You’re booked.”
I built FadeFlow for Fade District, a fictional solo barbershop in Yaba, Lagos, run by Malik Adeyemi.
The problem is simple: a lot of bookings start with a message like:
“Can I get a haircut Saturday afternoon?”
From there, Malik has to ask for the service, check availability, reply with time options, create the booking, confirm it, collect the deposit, send reminders, and handle changes.
FadeFlow removes that back-and-forth.
Customers can choose a service, see available times, pay a ₦5,000 deposit, and confirm their appointment themselves.
And when they still message instead, FadeFlow turns the inquiry into a structured booking request. Malik can see what they want, send available times, and create the booking in one action.
Once it's booked, FadeFlow keeps everything connected:
✓ Calendar updated ✓ Customer updated ✓ Confirmation sent ✓ Reminder scheduled
Rescheduling works the same way. The old slot is released, the new one is reserved, and the related reminders are updated automatically.
I built it around one idea:
Let the customer handle the predictable parts. Let Malik handle the moments that actually need him.
