About ManeMatch

Your next look, before the first cut.

We're building the future of hair consultations — where every client walks in confident and every stylist delivers exactly what was envisioned.

Our Story

Born in a salon chair

It starts the same way every time. A client pulls out their phone, scrolls to an Instagram photo, and says “I want this.” But that look is on a completely different person — different face shape, different skin tone, different hair texture. The stylist does their best to translate, the client hopes for the best, and too often the result is disappointment on both sides.

We thought: what if you could see that exact hairstyle on yourself before a single snip? What if you could walk into the salon with a photo of you wearing the look you want, and hand it to your stylist so there's zero guesswork?

That's ManeMatch. AI-powered hair previews that bridge the gap between inspiration and reality. For clients, it means confidence. For stylists, it means better consultations, fewer do-overs, and happier people in the chair.
