Colour Formulas & Overage Billing

Key Benefits

• Recipes in grams, not guesswork. Every formula records the exact products and weights. Open a client's profile next visit and the recipe's there, ready to repeat or tweak, with no more "what did we mix last time?"
• Overage billed automatically. Set how many grams the service price includes. Go over and Luminate stages a colour overage line on the till, worked out from your charge rule. The receptionist sees it, the client pays it, nobody has to have the awkward conversation.
• Charge rules that fit your salon. Flat fee, percentage of cost, or a per-gram rate. Set a minimum charge and a minimum overage so a 2g spillover doesn't trigger a 40p line item.
• Three modes, start where you like. Notes for freeform consultation notes, Formulas for structured gram-level recipes, and Full to switch on automatic billing, so you can move up when you're ready.
• Old receipts stay put. Each charge snapshots the rule at the moment it's finalised, so changing your prices later never rewrites a bill the client already paid.
