While Urgent.ly rapidly delivers help for all kinds of roadside needs, our friends in what’s become known as “on-demand” marketplace are now providing services addressing something perhaps just as relevant: beauty. 

I guess you could say at Urgent.ly we quickly fix your blow-outs, while these folks deliver them.

According to today’s Wall Street Journal, “One of the fastest-growing areas of on-demand websites and apps brings salon services to your home or office.”

Yep, blow-dries on your time; make-up applied when and where you want.

Companies like Vênsette and Glamsquad are spinning up apps that, like Urgent.ly, allow customers to communicate location and beauty care needs without that pesky waiting on hold. Need a new face while you take a business call from your office? Done.

We love the “On-Demand Economy” (ODE as it’s now known), and look forward to all kinds of businesses jumping in to make the world a little more safe, fun, convenient … and beautiful.
