How it works

A booking flow that feels closer to Uber than a salon directory

01

Tell us the treatment

Choose service, London area, budget, time and whether you want salon, home or hotel.

02

GlowNow routes it

The request goes to the best available pro based on fit, price and open slots.

03

The pro accepts

If they decline, the request automatically moves to the next suitable match.

04

Deposit locks the slot

The client pays a protected deposit only after acceptance, reducing no-shows.

London launch wedge

Start narrow, win trust, then expand

Best first market: BIAB nails and brows in Shoreditch, Soho and Chelsea. These are frequent, visual, time-sensitive services where clients already compare portfolios and pros suffer from no-shows.

Client promise “I need a great pro today, without messaging five accounts.”
Pro promise “Send me serious clients with a deposit, not time-wasters.”
Business model 12% on confirmed bookings, then pro subscription once demand is proven.
