Braidz IQ is the trusted marketplace that matches you with verified professional hair braiders and gives you AI-powered braid care from booking through takedown.
Braidz IQ is a mobile-first marketplace for protective hair braiding. We match clients with verified, vetted braiders based on style match, signature work, proximity, availability, and review quality — then guide both sides through booking, deposits, in-app messaging, and aftercare.
What makes Braidz IQ different is the **care layer**. Every booking unlocks an AI Braid Care assistant that sends weekly check-ins, a night-time protocol tailored to your style, and a symptom logger for tight braids, itching, or buildup. Your braider gets read-only visibility into your care thread so the relationship continues beyond the chair.
For braiders, Braidz IQ is a complete business backbone: structured onboarding, portfolio storage, policy management, deposit-secured bookings, analytics, and SEO-ready public profiles. We take a transparent platform fee on the deposit only — never on tips and never on cash add-ons.
Braidz IQ is privacy-first (SOC II-aligned audit trail, full data export, account deletion), accessible on any device as a PWA, and free for clients to join.
