“blow LTD beauty professionals have been handpicked and rigorously tested and vetted. They use only premium beauty brands (Kerastase, OPI, Decleor) and have a consistently-maintained customer satisfaction score of 97%. In-app consultation data collection means blow LTD also offers treatment and product recommendations for a super-personalised customer experience.”
In regards to what the latest campaign’s funds will be used for, blow LTD added:
“With this round of investment we are ready to accelerate our growth, deepening our penetration in the UK and launching our first international market. Whilst also exploring ‘how to get big quickly’ through consolidation. From our first international launch we will create a playbook that will then be the blueprint to supercharge further roll-out. Our focus to date on operations and tech means many processes will remain centrally controlled, resulting in an efficient and cost-effective roll-out.”
