From inspiration to formula

A hair color formulation workflow built around the way stylists actually work: photo in, verified formula out.

  1. Uploading a client's inspo pic

    Upload the inspo pic

    Start with the look your client wants, straight from the inspo pic they sent you.

  2. Selecting a color brand

    Pick your brand

    Choose the color line already at your station. FormulaFinder formulates in that brand's real shades.

  3. Adding the client's current hair to set the starting point

    Add your client's current hair

    Upload a photo of their hair today to set the true starting point. Review the level, tone and history, make corrections if needed, then get your formula.

Every step, spelled out

Each formula comes broken into clear steps, with the products, shade codes, developer strength, mixing ratio and timing for every part of the service, plus notes on how to apply it. Built on official brand shade charts, so every shade code is one you can actually order.

Tips, aftercare and timing are waiting inside the app.

Built for the way colorists work

Inspiration, formulation, brand translation, and everyday business tools, brought together in one refined hair color app for stylists.

Inspiration and formula in one place

Today, finding a look means bouncing between Pinterest, Instagram, and a handful of other apps, then starting over somewhere else to work out the formula. FormulaFinder brings both together. Search and save real hair color inspiration inside Discover, then turn any look into a verified formula without ever leaving the app. No more switching between platforms.
