Want Instant Access To London’s Best Spas And Salons? There’s An App For That

It can't just be us that gets a last minute invite out on a Friday only to look down at our grown out gel nails and frizzy hair and panic. Oh, but there's a million salons nearby, no? Well yes, and no. (Annoying) hold music and a 'sorry we're full' in that 'I can't believe you even bothered calling at 5pm on a Friday' tone and we're back where we started. Nowhere.

So we can hardly believe no one's thought of this sooner, to be honest; after all there's an app for basically every single thing in the world these days and looking good really shouldn't be made to be such hard work.

Better late than never the newly launched Ruuby app takes up the much needed mantle of beauty concierge in Central London, offering users direct access to the diaries of top London spas and salons. All are thoroughly vetted through numerous processes including user recommendations (well, you wouldn't want any waxing mishaps, would you? shudders).

Users can select the category of treatment required, from hair, massages, make up and nails - and even some awesome nail art - either at a local salon or spa or in the comfort of their own home. Yes, really. There are also a bunch of beauty packages available exclusively through the app, oh, and it's free. Sign us up, pronto!
