Nobody has any time anymore. That’s the simple premise behind Fix Beauty Bar, which opened last September in New York City and has been growing rapidly ever since. At Fix, clients can get a blow out and a manicure and pedicure at the same time. “Our typical client is busy,” says Karol Markowicz, Fix’s co-owner. “What we’ve found is that women of all ages and all stages of life simply don’t have any time.” Markowicz opened the beauty bar with long-time friend Michelle Breskin because they always found themselves crunched for time when trying to squeeze in a weekly blowout and manicure. “A pedicure was a rare indulgence,” says Markowicz. “We wanted one place where women could go and get everything done quickly and in a luxurious setting at a moderate price.”
They currently have six stylists and four nail technicians, with plans to hire more.
