About this app

StrandLab is the hair growth tracker built for every hair type — straight, wavy, curly, coily, locs, and waves. From 1A to 4C, StrandLab gives you a personalized hair care routine, curated products, and data-driven tracking designed for YOUR hair. Whether you want to grow longer hair, build a healthy hair routine, or finally understand what your hair actually needs — StrandLab turns your hair care into a science.

Most hair care apps treat all hair the same. StrandLab doesn't. We built three growth paths, each with its own science:

GENERAL GROWTH (1A–4C)
Track your hair growth from buzz cut to classic length. Get porosity-matched hair care routines — because what works for low porosity hair is completely different from high porosity hair. Whether you have straight 1A hair or coily 4C curls, your routines, products, and check-ins are tailored to your texture. Daily and weekly check-ins keep you consistent, and your Vitality Score shows exactly how your habits affect your hair health.

LOCS LAB
The dedicated loc growth tracker. Monitor your loc journey from starter locs through budding, teenage, and mature stages. Track retwist appointments, takedown days, and wash day cycles. Get stage-specific care routines for every phase of your loc growth.

WAVES WORKSHOP (180–720)
Track your wave progress from 180 to 720 waves. Log wolfing sessions, brush patterns, and du-rag routines. Whether you're just starting your wave journey or maintaining elite patterns, StrandLab tracks it all.

POROSITY QUIZ
Your hair's porosity determines everything — which products absorb, which routines work, how often to wash. Take our porosity quiz and get a hair care routine and product recommendations matched to YOUR hair, not generic advice. Understanding your porosity is the first step to healthy hair.

HAIR WEATHER
Daily hair advisories based on your local weather and porosity type. Humidity warnings for high porosity hair, cold-weather sealing tips, frizz prevention for curly and coily hair — personalized to your location and hair type every morning.

CURATED PRODUCTS
Every product recommendation in StrandLab is matched to your porosity and growth path — featuring trusted brands like TGIN, Camille Rose, Alikay Naturals, Melanin Haircare, Carol's Daughter, and more. No generic lists — products that actually work for your hair type.
