Having a professional hairstylist and makeup artist at your disposal is no longer reserved for the Hollywood set. Everyday women, managing multiple responsibilities and schedules, can also book on-demand beauty services straight to their home, office, or hotel room in as little as an hour. These online platforms and mobile apps allow women everywhere to look glamorous without wasting precious time and effort.
BeautyLynk
Boston-based beauty tech company BeautyLynk quickly connects customers with vetted beauty professionals for on-demand services, which include blowouts, hairstyling, makeup, updos, and eyelash extension application.
Because many of BeautyLynk’s clients have ever-changing schedules, its cancellation policy is very forgiving. Cancel up to 20 minutes before the appointment and there will be no charge.
The online platform prides itself on providing beauty services to a wide range of women with diverse hair textures and skin colors. There is also an online community with up-to-date job listings for stylists, local events, and product reviews from other beauty enthusiasts.
Stylists are available from 8:30 am–10 pm. Appointments can be made at least 30 minutes in advance.
beGlammed
Women on the go can request on-demand beauty services from beGlammed either online or through its app. Individuals or groups can book blowouts, updo styling, makeup, wedding day prep, and nail services.
Its top-rated stylists even offer Halloween services, including transformational costume makeup.
Customers can choose from ready-made looks, like the “Ingenue” style with “no makeup” makeup, or “The Gala” look with full lashes and a bold lip.
Stylists are available for bookings from 6 am–10 pm, at least three hours in advance.
Glamsquad
Probably one of the most well-known on-demand beauty companies, Glamsquad takes a tailored approach to each appointment. At the start of every booking, a personal consultation is conducted to create the client’s desired look.
Services include hairstyling, blowouts, wedding beauty, and nails. There is also Halloween costume hair, wig application, and makeup services available for your end-of-October festivities.
If Glamsquad is a regular part of your routine, beauty packages for five blowouts or two makeup applications are available for purchase.
Stylists can be booked from 6 am–9 pm, at least one hour in advance.
ManiCare
Although ManiCare specializes in on-demand manicures and pedicures, the company also offers a wide range of spa services including waxing, facials, makeup application, and massages. Customers can also book beauty services for events and groups—office parties, anyone?
ManiCare licensed nail technicians use nontoxic nail polishes that are formaldehyde and DBP-free. Disposable tools are utilized whenever possible, and all metal tools are pre-treated with hospital-grade sterilization measures.
Beauty experts will primp, soothe, and transform any client at any location, from offices and hotel rooms to hospital beds and homes.
Stylists are available for bookings 8 am–8 pm, at least 24 hours in advance.
Zeel
If you’re in need of some relaxation but dread dealing with traffic to get to the spa, a personal licensed masseuse will come to you. Zeel customers can book 60-minute massages, with gratuity included, online or through the Zeel app.
Zeel memberships offer monthly savings of 15–25 percent off massages. If you’re too busy to have a massage once a month, your membership credits roll over, making getting those knots in your back worked on efficient and easy.
Massage therapists can be booked from 8 am–10:30 pm, at least an hour in advance.
Now this is what we call the full spa treatment.
