SOS Beauty vs Empera

Need your nails doing at the last minute for an unexpected night out, or perhaps your planning months in advance for a wedding and you need the perfect hairdresser. Either way SOS Beauty can help. You can send a notification to all the beauticians in your area with your beauty appointment requirements and within minutes quotes will come in from those that have availability. You specify what treatment you want, when you want it, and where you want it (beauticians, home, your home, or a salon) and you will only receive quotes from those that match your criteria. Before deciding who to book you can quickly check their star rating, references with photos from actual customers and their own gallery. You can compare prices and availability without spending hours ringing around only to find they are out of budget or not available when you need them. SOS Beauty takes the headache out of booking beauty appointments as it gives you full visibility of everyone offering beauty services in your area and their availability at the push of a button. You can also receive last minute deals from beauticians by subscribing for special offers. Create your free profile now by downloading the app.
