AI receptionist for barbershops in Osh
In Osh people message the barbershop at lunch and in the evening and want the haircut the same day. The agent answers for your front desk: says which barber is free, quotes the price and books.
Hi! Do you cut kids’ hair? My son is six, we’d like it done before Monday.
Hello! Yes, we do. A kids’ haircut is 450 som. Tomorrow we have 10:30 and 12:00 with Bekzod. Which time suits you?
Let’s do 10:30
Booked for tomorrow at 10:30: kids’ haircut with Bekzod.
Thanks! He’s a bit scared of the clippers, is that OK?
That’s fine, I’ve let the barber know. See you tomorrow!
When customers write in Osh
Most messages arrive in the evening and at the end of the week, especially on Friday and before a toi. That is when every barber is busy, and a client who waits more than a few minutes goes to the barbershop next door.
Busiest hours: 11:00 to 13:00 and 17:00 to 21:00
Asking what time you open and whether there is time for a haircut before work.
Lunch-break questions: how much is a fade, is any barber free today?
Friday evening: everyone wants a haircut before the weekend and the toi. The barbers are cutting, the agent answers the chats.
Answers in Kyrgyz and Russian
The agent replies in the language the customer wrote in and does not switch unless asked. Here is the same reply in both.
In the south customers also write in Uzbek, and the agent answers in Uzbek too.
Саламатсызбы! Бүгүн саат 19:00дө чач кырктырууга бош убакыт бар. Сизди жазып коёюнбу?
Здравствуйте! Сегодня в 19:00 есть свободное время на стрижку. Записать вас?
What the agent takes off your hands
Books with the right barber
Sees in the journal which barber a regular goes to and offers a time with him, and for a new client finds whoever is free first. The booking appears in Altegio or DIKIDI right away, or in the built-in Solwees CRM if you have no journal.
Answers prices and services
Explains how a fade differs from a regular cut, what a beard trim costs and whether you cut kids’ hair. Prices come only from your price list.
Reminds and reschedules
Sends a reminder a day and a couple of hours before the visit. If a client can’t make it, it offers another time at once, so the chair doesn’t sit empty.
Hands the tricky ones to you
If a client is unhappy with a cut or asks for a discount, the agent does not argue and promises nothing itself. It hands the conversation to your front desk, who see at once what it was about.

Frequently asked questions
Does the agent answer in Kyrgyz?
Yes. A client can write in Kyrgyz, Uzbek, Russian or English, and the agent answers in the same language. If the client switches mid-conversation, the agent switches too.
Where do bookings live?
If your journal is in Altegio or DIKIDI, the agent puts bookings straight into it and checks the barbers’ schedules there. Your client base can live in Bitrix24, and if you use none of these, the built-in Solwees CRM will do.
What if a client wants to walk in without booking?
The agent follows your rules: if you take walk-ins, it says so. It also offers the nearest free slot right away, so the client does not have to queue.
What if a client asks something the agent does not know?
The agent answers only from your prices, services and rules. If the answer is not there, it tells the client it will check with the front desk and passes the question on together with the chat.
Will it answer people coming to Osh from the districts?
Yes. Many write ahead, before the trip into town. The agent answers at once, finds a convenient day and sends a reminder the day before so the trip is not wasted.
