Helen-Marie Cummings ’17, who frequents a nail salon in Harvard Square, says she would consider using Ownly to have her nails painted.

“If the quality is the same, it’s worth trying for the cheaper price and the ease of having them come to your door,” Cummings said.

Xie says the team’s goal is to eventually extend Ownly nationwide.

“We envision that this platform will save women money on college campuses across the country,” Xie said.

CORRECTION: September 19, 2014

An earlier version of this article incorrectly stated David Ding's relationship to Harvard College. In fact, he is not an alumnus. The article also incorrectly stated the role of Dasol Shin ’15 in the startup. In fact, she will aid with Ownly's launch at Harvard but is not a developer. Finally, the article incorreclty stated how frequently Xie paid to have her eyebrows threaded. In fact, it was every other week.
