Apps over the past five years have changed the way we do things and in many ways saved us SO much time and hassle. However, in the hair and makeup department it can still be tricky for those who travel regularly or work 9-5. With the majority of beauty and hair salons closing their doors by 6pm, and many closed on Sunday’s, for many of us it means we are left to squeeze those beauty appointments into a small time frame.
If this sounds familiar to you then let me introduce you to an incredible new app called Raven. Think of it as the Uber of the beauty world! It was developed by top hair stylist Trudy Hayes who I’ve had the pleasure of working with on various shoots and fashion shows over the years. Trudy has worked with some of the most prestigious names in the industry including L’Oreal, Vogue.com, Glamour USA and many more. She saw a gap in the market in the beauty world to bring appointments directly to a client be it the office, your home or even a hotel. She says ” I realised the pressure involved in managing a jam-packed schedule. I wanted to create a solution that allows women to look good on their own terms and in their own time. And so Raven was born, with three easy clicks you can have a premium beauty or hair service to your door without the hassle of a regular salon appointment.”
What I liked about Raven is that you’re given a broad selection of options where you can pick and choose what you need from highlights, to makeup, nails, tan and even HD brows. It’s very easy to navigate and there is no download fee either. Simply download the app from iTunes, choose your beauty necessity of choice, it will then send a request to professionals in your area and you choose an expert you would like from the response list. It’s easy and hassle free which we all need at the end of a crazy day. My only hesitation is I’ll get carried away with beauty appointments come pay day! ha! 🙂 Lou xx For more info on this app you can visit : www.joinravenapp.com or download the apphere.
