A private service is hidden from your public service list, but clients with a direct link can still book it. Use it for things like a bridal trial you only offer after a consultation, or a VIP treatment for returning clients.
If you want to stop all bookings for a service instead, turn it off. See the last section below.
Before you start

Common questions
No. Private services aren't included in the public service list, so they only open from a direct link.
