Spot on for the first 3D hair styling app the world has ever seen! Released only in the United States in 2015, this third generation of the earlier „Color Advisor App“ grew up to an allrounder for all hair needs. Instead of just coloring their own hair, users were now able to place different 3D hair styles on any picture of themselves and to then color that hair style in any Schwarzkopf coloration existing in the USA. Furthermore, a big advice section had become part of the app.

Fell in love
with one of the app’s styles?

Each style shown in the app was really easy to make. To get a perfect result at home, all styles came with a step by step tutorial, composed of some recommendations on tools and products needed, a picture of each step and a small description what to do.

Much more than just a funny photo app

Next to the great styling and coloration features the app has been upgraded by a color guide and a care & styling advice section and was also provided with some of the features known from the older international version.

thoughts on this project

When I think back to the design and development period of this project, I remember lots of hours of retouching hair together with a colleague, a big collaboration of several designers and a very creative, challenging customer. Thus, I had found my passion for mobile app design during the design period of the previous, international version of this app, I was extremely excited to be the lead designer of this version and had great fun developing the concept and the design for the app together with the other designers. Although, it had been a little bit of chaos sometimes, managing all designers to comply with the customers wishes in a consistent way, I liked the way we mastered this big challenge and I do like the result we created.
