PERFECT CORP BRINGS AI TO BEAUTY

Imagine a client exploring a new hair color on your salon website before their appointment. Instead of starting with an uncertain idea, the consultation can begin with a visual starting point and a conversation about what is possible. Perfect Corp.’s artificial intelligence (AI) and augmented reality (AR) technology allows users to virtually explore hair colors, cuts, styles and makeup looks. For salon professionals, that creates a new way to discuss services and help clients feel more confident about their choices. For beauty brands, it offers a more personal way to introduce products and support purchase decisions. A virtual preview starts the conversation; the professional guides the recommendations and achievable
results.
