Our Story

We are an amazing team transforming a nascent market. Our CEO worked as a hairdresser for seven years to put herself through college. Afterwards, she spent six years in sales at Gartner working with startups and Fortune 10 companies in the Bay Area. This gave her exposure to bleeding edge applications of tech, specifically related to computer vision and machine learning. Noticing the increased volume of stylists and barbers using social media to post pictures of their work, she saw an untouched multi billion dollar market opportunity. Having found lucrative success in sales, she was able to bootstrap to get started.

Jessica interviewed candidates for over a year to find the right person to complete our IP. That person was Nan Liu, a graduate student from NYU with an MS in Financial Engineering focused on data science. Jessica saw Nan's potential in skill (scoring 95% on the interview's coding test) plus awareness of the market opportunity, and became set on convincing her to become part of the team. Ultimately she chose to join because she "had to see this idea come to life". She was a unique match considering NYU ranks seventh in the U.S. for number of female founders raising more than $1MM in funding, surpassing Yale, Brown and Columbia.

Jenna joined the company as an advisor just nine months after it was founded. Jessica slid into her Instagram DM's with a pitch on using the first version of the company's app. Jenna flipped the script and convinced Jessica to book a hair cut with her. The day after Jessica's appointment, Jenna sent an email outlining ten ideas she had on the value of the app for her profession. She concluded by saying: "I'd really like to be a part of this. How can I help?" She has tirelessly devoted herself to building a following on our social media channels, looping us into the wider community of hair professionals in the Bay Area and throughout California.
