Great artists cancel more than you'd expect. When they do, the spot goes to the top of a text-message list of clients who match the piece. Coming soon — the fastest way to book a hard-to-get artist without waiting three months for a consult.
Sign up with your phone number, set your preferences, and forget about it. When an artist you're matched with releases a slot, you get a text. Reply Y to claim. That's it.
Pick styles, artists, cities, and price ranges. Only alerts that match get sent. You'll never wake up to a text about a sitting three hours away in a style you don't want.
The deposit locks the slot the second you reply Y. No queue, no bidding, no follow-up. If someone else replies first, the alert tells you it's gone and drops off your list.
The artist has a cancellation. They text a keyword to release the slot to their list. The whole thing takes about ten seconds from the shop floor.
Every subscriber whose preferences match the artist, the style, the timeframe, and the price gets an SMS within seconds. Nobody else is bothered.
One tap. The deposit charges automatically off your saved card, the slot goes on the artist's calendar, and you get a confirmation with the shop address.
On the day, show up. Deposit gets released as credit against the sitting; you pay the balance. What was a cancellation is now a piece on your arm.
Alerts are one text long. All the details you need to decide, none of the marketing fluff. If a slot needs more context than a single text can carry, we won't send it.
The one-tap Y reply is a real reply. No follow-up form, no link out to a checkout page. Your saved card handles the deposit; the artist's calendar updates automatically. It works even if you're on a plane with SMS-only service.
If the slot's already gone by the time you tap, you'll get a text back within a second telling you so — and no charge lands on your card.
Every waitlisted artist you follow has cancellations every month. Some of them dozens. Right now those slots get filled by whoever's most-online at the moment the artist posts to Instagram. The List makes it fair — and instant.
A dropped appointment is a real cost. You've blocked the day, you've set up the station, and now the chair is empty. The List fills it in the time it takes to send a text — and it fills it with someone who actually wants the piece.
Drop your email now and you'll be the first to set your preferences when The List opens in your city. We'll ping you once and then it's SMS-only from there.
One email when The List opens in your city. Nothing else.
