Snabbit has entered the beauty services segment with an on-demand salon-at-home offering after a six-week pilot in Bengaluru completed more than 2,000 jobs. The company said average fulfilment time during the pilot remained under 15 minutes, positioning the model against traditional appointment-led salon services that often require bookings hours or days in advance.
The pilot, conducted in Bengaluru's Sarjapur area, currently operates with 25 beauty professionals and handles around 50 jobs daily.

Snabbit is focusing on high-frequency use cases such as threading, waxing, clean-ups, facials, hair styling, saree draping and head massages. The company said it has trained workers as multi-skilled professionals capable of delivering multiple services in a single visit.
The platform uses compact beauty kits and single-use packaging aimed at improving hygiene and reducing wastage. Products from brands including O3+ and Rica are part of the service ecosystem.
All services are delivered by women professionals with experience ranging from 3 to 14 years, with additional training provided at company-run centres. Services start at Rs 49 and carry no minimum order value.
Founder and Chief Executive Officer Aayush Agarwal said the company sees a large opportunity in bringing instant fulfilment to beauty services.

“Beauty services is a high-frequency category with a large addressable market that overlaps perfectly with the core category we have built,” Agarwal said.
“Consumers today expect convenience everywhere, but availing beauty services still involves long waiting periods. We see an opportunity to fundamentally rethink the experience through speed, reliability and hyperlocal fulfilment.”
Snabbit plans to expand the offering across more Bengaluru micromarkets before rolling it out to other cities.
