Maya Ellis braids hair out of Suite 14 in Decatur, Atlanta. She's made up. Her problem isn't.
A knotless set can take 8 hours. While her hands are in someone's hair, her DMs fill up with "how much for knotless?" By the time she replies, half of them have booked somewhere else. And about 1 in 4 bookings without a deposit never show.
For the Lovable challenge, I rebuilt the inquiry-to-booking flow so Maya doesn't have to touch it.
How it works:
ā Two ways in from her bio link: chat with an assistant that answers price and time questions and books you, or tap straight through
ā Price, time in chair, and deposit shown before any times
ā Only start times where the full style actually fits
ā Deposit locks the slot, and the confirmation email goes out instantly
ā Every conversation lands in a leads tab, tagged booked or not booked
ā Cancelled slots go to the waitlist
ā Sick day? One tap moves every affected client
ā Daily cap on long styles, so her wrists last the week
Built entirely in Lovable. Demo below.

Really smart build!
TYKHO Care ā sensory-friendly haircuts for children Ā· Odesa, Ukraine
TYKHO turns a parent's worried "can we come to you?" into the right kind of visit at the right time ā booked, prepared and refilled on cancellation, without a single scheduling message for the stylist.
The client:* Anna "Anya" Kovalynska, a solo children's hairdresser in Odesa. One chair, one child at a time ā a quiet studio in Arcadia plus home visits along Fontanka Road and in Tairova. Many of her clients are children who find salons hard: the buzz of clippers, mirrors, waiting rooms, being touched.
Quirks I designed for:
- quiet hours only on Tue/Wed mornings
- high-support visits need a 15-min buffer
- some children need a 20-min Meet & Greet first
- home visits are grouped by district
- "tough morning" cancellations burn the rare quiet slots
- parents re-explain their child's triggers every time
- Anya can't answer the phone mid-cut
For parents (no account, no app store):
- 5 calm questions ā the gentlest kind of visit, with the reasons
- only the times that fit their child
- instant confirmation and a "what will happen" story to show the child
- reminder with one-tap confirm, move or cancel
- none of the times fit? Join the waitlist and get an offer by email
For Anya (installable owner app):
- her whole day on one screen
- a brief for every child built from the parent's answers
- reminders and a one-tap nudge
- cancellations offered automatically to the best-fit family on the waitlist, held 2 hours, then passed on
- a day off asks the affected families to pick a new time ā nothing is cancelled
- book for a family by phone with the same 5 questions
- a note after each visit that the next visit starts from
- Outbox of every email sent for her Ā· services, prices and hours Ā· QR poster for the studio mirror Ā· light and dark theme
Under the hood: Lovable Cloud ā server-validated slots with no double booking at the database level, row-level security, scheduled jobs for reminders and offer expiry, transactional email via Resend on its own domain, two PWAs.
Removed from Anya's day: scheduling DMs Ā· repeated care questions Ā· manual reminders Ā· chasing cancellations and the waitlist Ā· calling every family on a sick day Ā· preparing each child from memory.
One demo week: 14 bookings confirmed without a message Ā· ~3 h of messages saved (estimate) Ā· 2 cancelled slots refilled automatically Ā· 0 care questions repeated.

For Test:
1. Be a parent (no login). Open https://tykhocare.com on your phone ā "Start the comfort check" ā answer for a made-up child ā pick one of the times ā enter your real email. You'll get the confirmation email with a "Manage visit" link (reschedule / cancel in one tap). None of the times fit? Tap "Join the waitlist".
2 Ā· Be Anya (owner). https://tykhocare.com/owner/login ā email: usertestanya@gmail.com Ā· password: Anya0508. Your booking is already in her day with a brief built from your answers. The envelope icon (Outbox) shows every email the system sent. "ā¦" ā Services & hours: prices, hours, a day off. "ā¦" ā Studio QR poster.
3 Ā· Try the waitlist. Cancel your visit from the email ("Manage visit") ā if the freed time fits a family on the waitlist, Anya's Outbox shows the "A quiet time just opened" offer that went to them ā no call from Anya needed.
Tip: both sides install as separate apps (TYKHO / TYKHO Owner) ā Chrome ā® ā Install app, or Safari ā Share ā Add to Home Screen. Demo data resets every night. While signed in as Anya, you can also restore it yourself: "ā¦" ā Reset demo data.
