FAQ
Does it work for a single-chair barber as well as a multi-chair shop?+
Yes. ForgeMason is just as useful for a one-person operation as a larger shop — if anything, more so, because there's no one else to answer the phone when you're cutting. It acts as your dedicated receptionist for the price of a few haircuts a month.
Is there a minimum contract?+
No minimum contract. Rolling monthly — cancel any time. No setup fee.
