Partial The UI and browser inference are easy, but a credible hair-type classifier needs a labeled photo dataset and model training, which vibe coding alone can't supply.
What it would actually take: A real version needs a large, carefully labeled dataset of close-up hair photos spanning the 1A-4C types, lighting, and skin tones, plus fine-tuning a vision model and exporting it for in-browser inference (e.g., ONNX/TensorFlow.js). Validating accuracy and calibrating confidence scores requires ML evaluation expertise and a held-out test set.
