User reviews

I like this app a lot!

Being able to scan product ingredients and be told exactly how they work, the benefits and limitations of specific products individually AND combined with other products is so useful. Also love the community aspect and it does make tracking my hair routines easier. The developers are very receptive to feedback too. I paid for the one time life membership and yeah it’s worth it. Great app, def recommend as a useful tool for haircare.

So helpful and insightful

Needed this app

I could say so much but I want to keep it short. This app provides community, accountability, and actual help. On top of that you are able to see how consistent and track how said advice helps with your hair goals. I want everyone with natural hair to be on here!

This apple is near perfect! But it still deserves 5 stars!

This is truly a teacher. Something that lets you look at your routines and style changes overtime. A very user friendly wash day setup too. And I love it has it set to wear you can chat with other users.

The 2 things I wish it could do is back log. If you miss a logging m for the day just from being busy even though you did the task, you can’t go back to it. The other thing I wish it had was a journal section to free write, but that’s just me. But the app is phenomenal!

Response from developer

Ceilleaux, thank you so much, this made our whole team smile 🧡 The happiest part: both of the things you wished for are in Shea v.3.2 now. If you did your care but got too busy to log it, you can go back and add it. Open the Care Calendar, tap the day you missed, and log it after the fact. And there's a free-write journal too, it's called My Journal, where you can write anything you like. We just put it right on your Today page so it's easy to find (just scroll at the bottom). Please make sure you're on the newest version so you have both. Thank you for seeing what we're building, it means everything 💛
