Invoice Template for Hair Stylists
By Harlequin Doyon
Most salon appointments are pay-at-the-chair — but the moment you do bridal parties, editorial work, chair rental, or mobile appointments, someone will ask for a proper invoice. Speed Invoices gives hair stylists a free invoice template you fill in online and download as a PDF, with your logo at the top. No signup, no watermark, no ads — and client details stay in your browser.
When a stylist actually needs an invoice
- Bridal and event packages — trials, wedding-morning styling for the bride plus a party of four.
- Editorial, film, and photoshoot work — production companies won't pay without an invoice, usually on 30-day terms.
- Chair or booth rent — if you rent your chair out (or need to bill your own freelance chair time to a salon).
- Mobile and home-visit appointments — clients paying by transfer appreciate a written record.
- Product supplied — take-home colour care or extensions sold alongside a service.
Line items that look right on paper
- Bridal trial — cut, colour consultation and styling
- Wedding day styling — bride + 3 bridesmaids (per head is the norm)
- Full head highlights + toner + blow-dry
- Extensions — supply and fit (product and fitting as separate lines)
- Travel / early-start fee for on-location work
- Chair rental — week commencing… for booth renters
Per-head pricing for wedding parties is standard, and listing each person as a quantity makes the maths transparent — automatic totals handle the rest, including any tax or a package discount.
Deposits are your friend
Bridal and event work runs on non-refundable booking deposits — typically 25–50% at booking, balance due before or on the day. Send a deposit invoice to confirm the date, then a balance invoice the week of the event. For photoshoot and production work, expect to invoice after the job with the client's PO or job reference included; put it in the notes field so their accounts team can process it without emailing you back.
The tip: invoice event work before the event
A bride the week before her wedding answers messages; a bride on honeymoon does not. Make "balance settled 7 days before the date" your standard term for weddings — it's exactly how event planners and venues operate, so clients won't blink.
Ready when a client asks
No software to learn: type onto the invoice, add your logo, choose a template that matches your brand, and download the PDF. Freelance stylists juggling several income streams can use the same editor for every client — much like any freelancer's invoice.
