1. The Idea
A saved hairstyle photo is a photo of someone else's face and hair. HairOver exists to answer one question: would you actually choose this haircut if you could see it on you first?

2. Building the MVP
The first version shipped as Stylora: photo → analysis → ranked style report → details → try-on on your own face. Real screenshots, and what I still can't answer about them.

3. Launch
HairOver is live on Google Play; iOS is planned. The marketing site went from first commit to SEO-ready in 30 days — built around hairstyle search intent rather than feature pages.

4. Monetization & Pricing
At roughly NPR 15 per generated image, cost decides pricing. My first model missed the app store cut and priced a $55 pack at a 2% discount. The rebuild is a plan, not a result — yet.

5. Distribution
Two X accounts with different jobs — the founder explains, the product demonstrates — plus SEO, creators, and UGC experiments. The plan is published before its results, on purpose.

6. Growth
Activation, retention, conversion. The metric that matters most right now is first generation rate: how many people who upload a photo reach a look they care about. Numbers get published here once they're real.

7. Founder Lessons & Mistakes
Rebuilding a landing page four times before it had traffic. Forgetting the platform's cut. Pre-writing posts for events that hadn't happened. Every lesson here is tied to something that actually happened.

8. The $1M MRR Journey
$0 → $100 → $1K → $10K → $100K → $1M. Each milestone gets documented when it's reached — and until then, it's written as a target and a hypothesis, never as an achievement.
