About this app

Shea is the natural hair care app and hair growth tracker made for Black women with Type 3 and Type 4 hair: 4C, 4B, 4A, 3C, 3B and 3A.

Generic apps do not understand natural hair. Coily, kinky and curly hair needs different products, different routines and different timing. Shea is built around exactly that.

KNOW WHAT IS IN YOUR PRODUCTS
Scan any product's barcode or its ingredient list and Shea reads it against 2,300 ingredients, then tells you how it fits your hair. Not a generic score. Your porosity, your curl pattern, your goals. It flags protein when your hair is protein sensitive, drying alcohol high on the label, and buildup you will need to clarify. Tell Shea what your hair hates and it watches every label for you.

CHECK YOUR WHOLE SHELF AT ONCE
One product tells you almost nothing. Shea reads your entire routine together and finds what no single scan can: protein creeping into everything, a shelf that is all moisture and never holds a curl, buildup with nothing to lift it.

A COMMUNITY OF WOMEN WITH YOUR HAIR
Ask a question and get real answers from women whose hair actually looks like yours. Over 10,000+ Black women so far. Wash day wins, product disappointments, length checks, and the questions you would not ask anywhere else.

HAIR GROWTH TRACKER
Monthly progress photos, side by side then-and-now comparisons, and length measurements from TWA to waist length. Real proof your routine is working.

WASH DAY AND ROUTINE
Build your wash day and follow it step by step. Pre-poo, co-wash, deep condition, leave-in, style. Shea reminds you when the next one is due.

PRODUCT SHELF AND RATINGS
Track every product you own, rate it on moisture, slip and hold, and find your holy grails. Stop spending money on things that do not work on 4C, 4B, 3C or 3B hair.

STYLE LOOKBOOK
Log every style you wear. Knotless braids, twist outs, wash and go, faux locs, bantu knots, mini twists. Save install and takedown dates, photos and notes. Learn which styles your hair keeps and which it does not.

DAILY HABITS AND STREAKS
Moisturize, silk bonnet, scalp care, water. Small things, tracked daily, are what actually grow Type 3 and Type 4 hair.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Blur faces in your progress photos with one tap. We do not sell your data. We do not run ads. We do not track you.

WHO SHEA IS FOR
Black women with 4C, 4B, 4A, 3C, 3B and 3A hair. Whether you are transitioning from relaxed, growing out a big chop, or keeping a routine you already love, Shea was built for you.

I cannot tell you how excited I am to have an app that helps me maintain my natural hair. I really struggle with establishing routine and staying consistent about making sure my hair is healthy, and I can already tell this app is going to help me out so much. Very easy to use, very beautiful design to the app - I'm already a big fan!

This is a gem found completely by accident... this is wonderful. I have been asking for an app like this. we do everything in our phones. why not a detailed app for us organized girlies. I can keep up with my hair journey and see what I'm doing wrong.

The app has been a total gem for me. I have been tracking my growth for less than a month now, following the advice of my fellow users and I've seen a lot of changes. The only problem I am facing right now is that after the new update, I am no longer able to send messages on the Circle. I thought it was my network problem but it isn't. Tried rebooting the app but the problem is still there. Can you please help me fix it? Other than that everything is cool.

Thank you for telling us, Joyce. You were right, it was not your connection. We found it and fixed it, so your comments will post now. Open the Circle and try again. So glad a month of tracking is already showing you changes šŸ¤Ž
