why choose Kitomba targets video

"We use deposits to reduce no shows and last minute cancellations. Because we allocate a good amount of time for each appointment, if we have clients not turning up, that is a massive expense to a small business. We want to keep the authenticity behind our brand and be able to keep our salons open. It’s about our clients committing to their appointments with us."

- Candice Whitehead, Lounge and Co.
