Blow Out & Go - was founded by Power couple – Paria Ghorashi and Ali Rafi shortly after the birth of their first child, when they were quick to realize that there were not enough hours in the day for a working woman to do it all.

Ali is the CEO of Tune Group Middle East, responsible for the South East Asian conglomerate, representing Malaysian Entrepreneur and Founder of Air Asia, Tony Fernandes in the MENA region.

 

“My husband and I are very excited about the Dubai launch for Blowout&Go. As a full time mother and career woman, I often struggled to find the time to visit the hair salon especially immediately after the birth. I created the concept of Blowout&Go to specifically help women, so that they could look and feel good without having the inconvenience of visiting salons, all at an affordable price. I hope that Blowout&Go will help the ladies of Dubai fit their beauty routines into their busy schedules.”  Says CEO & Founder Paria Rafi. 

 

Since it’s soft launch in Dubai 6 months ago, Blowout&Go has become a phenomenon, with over 2000 women taking advantage of the ‘beauty at your door’ service. 

 

With a qualified team of over 20 hair and makeup artist servicing the Dubai emirate, women now have the convenience of booking a style agent from the hours of 8am – 10pm, 7 days a week starting from only 150aed for a blow-dry and 300aed for makeup, which can all be done in the comfort of their own home.

Shereen Mitwalli, International Presenter and Founder of The Female Network – (A group for entrepreneurial women) selected as the ambassador for the brand, added:

 

“Blowout&Go is one of the best services I have come across that was developed specifically for the busy working woman.   As a business owner and presenter, I am constantly required to look my best for shoots and high profile engagements, often working on back to back on 10-hour days. The convenience of having a hair and makeup artist come to my home or office to help me get ‘camera ready’ has simplified my life.   I am able to fit more into my schedule, as I’m no longer wasting time traveling to and from salons. It has quickly become a service I can no longer live without and I would highly recommend it to other women”.
