Tress

Thanks for hunting us Kat! We are super excited to be launching on Product Hunt today. We are in the current (W2017) batch of Y Combinator. I'm the CEO & Co-founder of Tress. My co-founders and I are building a social community for black women to discover and share hairstyle inspiration. Women upload photos of beautiful hairstyles and discuss with the community how to replicate the look, which products were used and where to get similar hairstyles. Unlike other topics, it’s significantly more useful to talk to women that have your specific hair type and hair needs. The app also has a Q&A section where users ask for advice in a forum-style setting where other users and stylists offer advice and recommend their services. We additionally have a Tips section, where we link to influencer content that can help the community in their hair care needs. I’d be more than happy to answer any questions you might have about Tress. We would love to hear your feedback.

Great work, now my lady friends can stop bugging me with their hairstyles and get inspiration and more here.

@anowahazel This looks very interesting. I work for Extensions Plus, one of the top hair extension companies around. Do you have any plans for business accounts? Or any collaborations you may want to do? (Just sayin) :)

Hi @anowahazel - I believe Tress recently launched on iOS; have you seen any interesting differences in usage patterns or behaviour between iOS users and Android users of the app?

Is this only for woman? Or there's a male hairstyle inspiration as well?

Awesome stuff! Looking forward to seeing how this grows.

This is a great idea, solving a really big problem for african and african-american women. I believe you guys will be very successful. (Also love the team :) )
