Three minutes to set up
-
Build your Hair DNA
Answer a short visual quiz — curl pattern, porosity, density, scalp. It takes about a minute and stays on your device.
-
Get your routine
A care plan built from your answers: how often to wash, deep condition, do protein, and why each one.
-
Log and learn
Track each wash day. OpenTips finds what your hair actually responds to, including the weather.
Every texture, properly served
From loose waves to tight coils — the app speaks all of them, and so does the content.
Wavy
Loose S-waves that fall flat or frizz. Lightweight products, less is more.
Curly
Defined loops and spirals. Moisture, definition and protecting the curl pattern.
Coily
Tight coils and zig-zags. The most fragile and the most versatile — moisture is everything.
What members say
I stopped buying products that were never going to work on 4C hair. The scanner alone paid for itself.
The care plan told me I was deep conditioning far too often. Three months on, my breakage has almost gone.
Finally an app that does not assume everyone has loose curls.
