Dashl is digital beauty booking concierge providing beauty services for everyone, anywhere. You come to us in one of our Beauty Bars (currently at H&M and IvyRevel), or we come to you at home, work or your hotel room. Dashl’s vision is to redefine the beauty industry, for consumers and professionals, through a trusted and scalable tech platform which provides high quality beauty services wherever, whenever.  Let’s be completely honest, we do like a bit of a challenge. That’s why we’ve set out to build a platform like no other. Usually people build either a marketplace, or a digital booking platform, a photo sharing app, or a payment solution. We decided to build a platform with all of those features. Why? Because it’s 2017 and it’s ridiculous that we don't have information about a hair or beauty professionals availability, pricing, portfolio and reviews in one single place. Oh, and then the ability to turn that content to commerce. With Dashl you can Book the Look. We want to ensure that our users have access to all of their hair and beauty needs at the tip of their fingers. After all, they don’t call us a personal digital beauty concierge for nothing *brushes off shoulders*.   The Dashl team is diverse from different backgrounds and cultures. We all have very different professional backgrounds, skillsets and experiences, which when brought together creates magic. We all get along really well and have fun working. We think it's important not only to be passionate of what you do but also looking forward to going into the office and working with your colleagues. Team Dashl is driven by innovation and problem solving. We never look for quick fixes, as we know that dedication and hard work will continue to strengthen the foundation that we have already built. We like to work with people that are creative, driven and dedicated. We have an inclusive mentality, where we encourage ideas and suggestions as everyone plays an important role. Although we all have very clear responsibilities and work independently we are team players when and where required as we’re working together towards a shared goal.   We like to set trends as opposed to follow them, and that’s the kind of people that we want to work with and have in our team! We are looking for the ultimate team players who are passionate, fun to work with and not afraid to reach for greatness!
