What inspired the launch of the GLAMSQUAD app?
Last year on New Year's Eve, I was very surprised that I couldn't get a last minute blowout appointment. I had Seamlessed my dinner, Rented the Runway, and Uber-ed a car, and thought if everything else can be delivered, why not beauty? I knew that it was possible to get stylists to come to your house but I didn't know where to look, what the quality would be like, or how much I would have to pay. I wished that I could order up beauty services to come to me at the touch of a button. The concept of GLAMSQUAD was born with the goal of making getting ready a whole lot easier. My partner and I worked to pull an amazing team together, raise money, and develop the business model that ultimately became GLAMSQUAD. We spent a year perfecting the process, developing the technology and recruiting top stylists, and by the time we launched, we had already endlessly tested the service with hundreds of our friends. Now we're thrilled to be sharing the service with the entire city!
