The short answer
To reschedule, say remarcar o horário. Begin with your name and the original day or time so the salon can find the booking. If you are messaging on WhatsApp, a short apology and direct request sound natural.
Identify the appointment you need to change
Oi, sou a Jamie. Preciso remarcar meu horário de sexta às três.
Hi, I’m Jamie. I need to reschedule my appointment for Friday at three.
Desculpa avisar em cima da hora. Surgiu um imprevisto.
Sorry for the short notice. Something unexpected came up.
Offer a new time or ask what is available
A disponibilidade is availability. Give one or two alternatives if you can, or ask which times are open. For a service such as a cut or color, repeat the service when confirming if the appointment length matters.
Você teria um horário na segunda de manhã?
Would you have an opening on Monday morning?
Pode ser na terça depois das quatro?
Could Tuesday after four work?
Confirm the new booking clearly
Once the salon offers a time, repeat the day, time, and service. This small confirmation catches misunderstandings between sexta (Friday) and sábado (Saturday), or between morning and afternoon.
Então ficou para terça, às quatro e meia, para cortar e pintar. Certo?
So it’s Tuesday at four thirty for a cut and color. Is that right?
Perfeito, obrigada. Até terça!
Perfect, thank you. See you Tuesday!
Put it into practice
Name the old booking, propose a realistic alternative, and repeat the agreed service and time.
