One line of code puts StrandLab on every product page
Any hair-care shop can add a “Find my hair match” button. Shoppers match once and every product shows how well it suits their hair, with reasons. The store gets the result as a JavaScript event. No catalogue work, and photos never reach the store.

What the store’s code receives
Tap Find my hair match, then pick a sample person. The result appears here, the same way it reaches a store.
Who it's for
Curly, wavy, coily and frizz-prone hair
Labels assume you know your type
“For 3B curls”, “for fine hair”, “high porosity” — most people guess, and guess wrong.
The same product acts differently
Glycerin defines curls on a mild day and causes frizz on a humid or freezing one.
Ad photos set false expectations
So people abandon products that were working, and buy the next one.

FAQ
Questions
Is it free? Do I need an account?
Yes, it's free and there's no account. Your last results stay in this browser tab only.
What happens to my photos?
They're sent to YouCam's Hair AI for measurement and are not stored by StrandLab. A small copy of your front photo stays in your browser for this session so you can revisit results.
Why four photos?
Curl pattern and frizz are measured from three angles (front, left, right). Density is read from your parting, so one photo has your head tipped forward.
What is porosity?
How easily your hair absorbs and holds water. It changes which ingredients work — and a camera can't see it, so we ask four quick questions.
Why does the weather matter?
Humectants like glycerin pull water from the air. In very humid air hair swells and frizzes; in very dry air they pull water out of your hair. The dew point tells us which.
Are the products real?
The shortlist uses a fictional demo catalogue to show how matching works. Use the label checker to test any real product you own.
Is this medical advice?
No. StrandLab gives cosmetic guidance. For hair loss, scalp pain or sudden shedding, see a dermatologist.
