Beauty. Culture. Community. Opportunity.
GloVerse is a technology marketplace connecting consumers with trusted glam and beauty professionals across hair, makeup, nails, lashes, brows, skincare, barbering, braiding, wigs, grooming, and other beauty services. The platform is designed to make it easier to discover talent, build professional visibility, create trusted connections, and ultimately book beauty services through one connected ecosystem.
GloVerse was founded by Gloria Woods, professionally known as GloRilla, after repeatedly experiencing the difficulty of finding trusted beauty professionals while touring, traveling, filming, performing, and moving between cities.
GloVerse was created to solve two connected problems: consumers need an easier way to discover trusted beauty professionals, while talented independent glam professionals need greater visibility, opportunity, and infrastructure to grow their businesses.
No. GloVerse is built for anyone seeking beauty and glam services and for professionals across the beauty industry. Gloria's influence helps introduce the platform, while GloVerse is being developed as a standalone technology company and marketplace.
No. GloVerse is designed to serve people of all genders and gender expressions seeking beauty, grooming, glam, and personal-care services.
GloVerse is designed for everyone. Cultural fluency and representation are central to the platform, particularly because many traditionally underserved beauty needs—including textured hair, protective styling, melanin-rich makeup, locs, braiding, and culturally specific services—remain difficult to discover consistently.
“Glo” connects naturally to Gloria, confidence, beauty, radiance, and self-expression. “Verse” reflects Gloria's world of music while also representing the broader “universe” of GloVerse—a growing ecosystem connecting beauty, community, culture, commerce, opportunity, and entrepreneurship.
Beta means GloVerse is live and actively evolving. During this stage, we are onboarding our founding community, testing experiences, gathering feedback, expanding provider coverage, and continuing to build toward the full marketplace.
The Beta represents the first live stage of the platform. Features, design, functionality, services, availability, and marketplace tools will continue to expand as GloVerse grows.
Beta allows the GloVerse community to begin building profiles, securing GloIDs, providing feedback, and helping shape the product while the marketplace continues to develop.
Yes. Consumers and glam professionals can join, although the initial growth strategy places a strong emphasis on recruiting and onboarding GloPros so the marketplace develops meaningful supply before demand accelerates.
Booking availability may vary by market and phase of the Beta. The app will clearly communicate which services, locations, and booking capabilities are currently active.
GloVerse is expanding provider availability progressively across the United States. As more GloPros join and become verified, additional cities and service categories will become active.
Use the platform, build your profile (GloID), explore the experience, and tell us what you want to see next. Community feedback will help shape future product features, services, and marketplace functionality.
Anyone who meets the platform's applicable age and eligibility requirements can create a GloVerse account.
Depending on availability in your market, you can use GloVerse to discover beauty professionals, view portfolios, explore specialties, build your GloID, save favorites, compare providers, follow marketplace growth, and ultimately book services.

A GloID is your digital identity inside GloVerse.
For consumers, it can capture beauty preferences, favorite services, personal style, location preferences, saved providers, and other information that helps personalize the platform.
