Everyone's day off is different. On Sunday in Kazakhstan, from a third to nine tenths of businesses are open, and the niche decides this more than the city does. We went through 16,432 schedules of businesses in seven niches
| niche | schedules reviewed | open on Sunday | open before 09:00 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Barbershops | 1310 | 98.5% | 12.7% |
| Cosmetologists | 3922 | 85.8% | 48.2% |
| Massage therapists | 5871 | 74.6% | 59.1% |
| Ophthalmologists | 690 | 45.1% | 71.9% |
| Dental clinics | 2807 | 41.3% | 78.2% |
| Dermatologists | 646 | 39.6% | 79.4% |
| Gynecologists | 1186 | 29.6% | 92.6% |
The more often a niche works on Sunday, the less often it opens before nine in the morning. Barbershops cut hair on the day off almost without exception and almost never work early. Gynecologists open in the morning in nine cases out of ten and are closed on Sunday in seven
The reason is simple: beauty follows the client's free time, and medicine follows the doctor's working day
| niche | close at 20:00 or later | at 21:00 or later |
|---|---|---|
| Barbershops | 93.6% | 66.9% |
| Cosmetologists | 73.1% | 32.6% |
| Massage therapists | 62.5% | 35.8% |
| Dermatologists | 44.4% | 12.4% |
| Dental clinics | 42.0% | 20.8% |
| Ophthalmologists | 38.3% | 12.8% |
| Gynecologists | 33.1% | 9.5% |
The evening after eight is reliably open only in beauty. Few people get to see a doctor after nine in the evening: there are 113 such gynecology practices in the whole country and 88 ophthalmology ones
Need a haircut or a treatment? Go whenever you like, Sunday evening included. Your choice will hardly narrow
Need a doctor on a day off? Plan ahead and check the specific business. Among dental clinics, dermatologists, and ophthalmologists, three out of five are closed on Sunday, and among gynecologists seven out of ten
Free only in the morning? Medicine suits you better than beauty. Before nine, 92.6% of gynecologists and 78.2% of dental clinics are open, against 12.7% of barbershops
Your niche has already set the schedule for you, and most businesses inside it look the same. You can stand out with your schedule exactly where the niche is empty: Sunday in medicine and early morning in beauty
The osteopathy center Osteobalans in Astana, our partner on ooon.ai, works every day from 07:00 to 21:00, Sunday included. It is located at Bukhar Zhyrau Street 30, inside the Love Beauty salon. A consultation costs 8,000 ₸ and a single session costs 35,000 ₸
The second way to stand out works at any hour. A person writes to several businesses at once and books with the one that answered first
