On-demand beauty services aren't uncommon in this industry--freelance makeup artists, massage therapists, estheticians and more can have all their available tools and tables and lighting on-the-go. And while hairdressers and barbers have mobile options (shears and styling tools are very mobile), a portable salon chair and station just aren't readily available.... until now. (Any bridal stylist will share the frustrations of hotel bathroom styling, for example. Getting the right height, no swivel, all frustrating.)

On a Kickstarter that's gaining attention via social media, Nohmad is looking to mobilize the business of barbering and beauty with the Rohver and the Nohmad app. "The industry’s first-ever tools + tech specifically designed for on-demand barber and beauty services."
