Behold: The Most Inclusive On-Demand Beauty Apps

Calling all my independent ladies and gents who are constantly on the run: This one's for you. Sometimes life gets in the way and you need glam on the go. So what do you do when it totally slipped your mind to make a salon appointment or go get your makeup done and you're pressed for time? Thanks to technology, there are on-demand beauty apps at your service at all times. With a lift of your finger, you can literally book everything on your phone. Stylists, makeup artists, and manicurists will come right to your door.  

You may be wary of how trustworthy these apps are—trust me, you have every right to be skeptical. Especially when we're talking about inclusive apps that have experts on hand who are skilled enough to produce quality work for all hair textures and skin tones. Thankfully, a lot of these on-demand apps have photos readily available that showcase a diverse clientele. We asked our friends, skimmed the internet, and combed through raving reviews to pull together the best on-demand beauty apps. Rest assured that these are the real deal.
