Collaboration

The Styled Hanger works with brands, agencies, and fellow creators who genuinely fit our world of fashion, outfits, hairstyles, nails, and beauty. If you've got a product, tool, or idea that belongs in a real routine — not just a sponsored slot — we'd love to hear from you. This page covers what we're open to, how we handle disclosure, and the fastest way to get a proposal in front of us.

What We're Open To

We say yes to collaborations that feel like a natural extension of what we already publish. That means our readers should be able to picture the product or idea sitting comfortably next to a post like a volume haircut guide or a manicure roundup, not standing out as an obvious ad.

• Hair tools, styling products, and treatments (especially anything relevant to texture, volume, or low-effort styling)
• Nail brands — polishes, press-ons, care products, and salon-style tools
• Clothing, footwear, and accessory brands across everyday and occasion wear
• Skincare and beauty products that fit a realistic, non-clinical routine
• Creator collaborations — guest tutorials, styling swaps, or co-created content
• Agencies representing multiple brands within these categories

What We Typically Decline

To keep our content trustworthy, we don't accept every pitch that lands in our inbox. We generally pass on collaborations that involve unverified health claims, extreme before-and-after promises, or products with no connection to fashion, hair, nails, or beauty. We also avoid partnerships that would require us to publish content we haven't personally tested or reviewed — our readers come back because our tutorials are real, timed, and tried at home, and we're not willing to trade that for a paid placement.

How We Handle Content and Disclosure

Every collaboration we accept is treated with the same editorial care as our organic content. We write in our own voice, test what we can, and never let a partnership override honest opinion. If a look, product, or tool doesn't work the way it's supposed to, we'll say so — or we won't publish it at all.

Any sponsored post, gifted product, or affiliate link is clearly marked in line with our Disclosure and Affiliate Disclaimer pages. We believe transparency is part of what keeps a niche site like this one credible, and we'd rather lose a partnership than mislead a reader. For more on how we approach content quality across the board, our Editorial Policy lays out the standards every post — sponsored or not — needs to meet.

What Makes a Strong Proposal

The pitches that move fastest through our inbox are specific. Instead of a generic media kit with no context, tell us exactly what you have in mind and why it fits our audience. A few things that help:

• A short description of the brand or product and what makes it relevant to our niche
• The type of collaboration you're picturing — sponsored post, product feature, affiliate partnership, giveaway, or something else
• Any relevant links: website, product pages, or past collaborations with other creators
• Timeline expectations, if there's a launch date or seasonal tie-in
• Whether the collaboration would involve gifted product, paid placement, or both

You don't need a polished pitch deck. A clear, honest email that respects our readers' trust will always get further than a generic template.

Before You Reach Out

If you haven't already, it's worth reading through our About Us page to get a feel for who we are, how we write, and what our audience actually responds to. A quick browse through recent posts also helps — it's the easiest way to see whether your brand fits naturally into what we publish, rather than feeling bolted on.

How to Send a Proposal

Once you're ready, send your proposal directly to [email protected]. Include the details above, and let us know the best way to follow up. We read every collaboration email personally, and while we can't accept every pitch, we do respond to the ones that are relevant and well thought out.

For general questions unrelated to partnerships, our Contact page is the better route — it keeps collaboration inquiries organized and helps us get back to brands more quickly. And if you're a creator or agency curious about how we source and credit visuals, our Image Credits page outlines that process as well.

We're genuinely excited to work with brands that care about the same things our readers do: outfits that actually work, hairstyles that hold up in real life, and beauty routines that don't require a salon appointment. If that sounds like you, we'd love to see what you have in mind.
