The age of the beauty routine

Beauty routines are more than just going through the motions. A routine is a moment of relaxation, of taking care of our mental and physical health. And consistency is key, especially for skincare routines, where adhering to a routine is what allows for product efficacy. That’s why we build innovations to be the ideal beauty assistants for users. By breaking down the morning and evening routines, we create technology that makes daily actions more efficient.

We designed a hair salon experience with AR features

Wella wanted to revolutionize the hair salon experience, so they consulted Baracoda for our IoT development expertise. Together, we created an innovative smart mirror for hairdressers and salon owners.

The Wella smart mirror includes AI, AR tutorials, 3D visualization, voice commands, and face and object recognition. The result is an immersive and personalized experience for all clients who go to the salon. Beyond developing the mirror itself, its system is integrated with Wella's customer management system, enabling improved customer communication outside of the salon experience.
