Function of Beauty (YC W16) – Personalized Shampoo

In plain words

Function of Beauty creates personalized shampoo formulas tailored to individual hair types and needs. The service is designed for people seeking customized hair care solutions rather than one-size-fits-all products. Customers answer questions about their hair characteristics to receive a bespoke shampoo blend. The company launched in 2016 and operates through its website, offering an alternative approach to traditional commercial hair care products.
