About us ArtistOnGo is a business-in-a-box solution for beauty and wellness professionals. We provide everything they need to launch and grow their independent brand — including salon space, a digital storefront, wholesale access, payments, insurance, and more — all in under 30 minutes.

Backed by leading VC funds (K50 Ventures, Sandwith Ventures, AR Fund Investments, Inventus Capital Partners, SVQuad) and industry leaders including Ilia Papas (Blue Apron), Alexandra Wilkis Wilson (Gilt), Pat Parenty (L'Oréal), Tom Lee (One Medical), and Anjali Kumar (YouTube), we’re building the future of independent beauty businesses.
