Startup of the Week - Freauty

by Startacus Admin
Whether you’ve got a special event coming up and need a little extra pampering, or you simply need a regular old haircut, it’s not always easy getting an appointment that fits in with everything else you’ve got going on. Time is precious after all…
Well, thanks to our latest Startup of the Week, booking such appointments has just become a whole lot easier.
Freauty is an online marketplace for mobile hair and beauty professionals - from hair stylists to personal trainers, they’re all here. The big advantage? They’re all mobile. Yep. They come to you - home, office, wherever.
On the platform each professional has their own profile outlining details of the service they provide and costs and fees etc. You’ll also be able to see any reviews from previous clients so that you can make an informed choice.
How Does it Work?
As a user simply browse the platform and see what services are available in your local area. Once you’ve found the professional you need, simply book an appointment time and make payment via either Paypal or a credit/debit card. After that, you’ll receive a confirmation email and then it’s just a matter of waiting for them to arrive.
No more juggling other things around in order to make that hairdresser’s appointment; with Freauty everything works around you.
Of course, if you’re a beauty professional, Freauty will help you to showcase your work and enhance your profile in both your local area as well as within the industry in general. That in turn, will help you to grow your customer base and thereby grow your business.
For beauty professionals and their clients alike, Freauty is minimising hassle and maximising convenience. Lots to like about it then, wouldn’t you agree?
