What is Swivel app?

A corporate lawyer and a magazine editor got sick of asking women on the street where they got their hair done, so they quit their jobs and created an app to help women of color find better beauty salons. Swivel Beauty App connects women with dozens of reviews and dozens of salons across New York and New Jersey. Friends since elementary school, Jihan Thompson and Jennifer Lambert decided last year that it was time to become business partners, too. They co-founded Swivel and launched in August 2016.
