A seamlessly personalised hair colour experience

New Delhi, June 24 (IANSlife) Professional beauty tech brand, L'Oreal Professionnel announced the launch of My Hair (iD) - the newest hair colour diagnosis app. Set to make its debut in premier salons nationwide, designed by Modiface Technology, this game-changing app tackles the unpredictability of hair colour results, making it easier for the colourists to provide a detailed consultation to their clients. Users can virtually try an assortment of colours, empowering them to experiment before committing to any hair colour transformation.

Customized for Indian skin tones with a diverse range of curated looks, the My Hair (iD) tool works towards providing the most interactive colour consultation for its clients. The tool offers a five-step diagnosis which covers a percentage of gray hair, type of coverage expected, the pace of hair regrowth, length shade and the hair reflect. Post this, the app recommends a personalized shade recipe which aids the colourist for mistake-proof results. This app makes the hair colour result highly predictable, allowing the hair experts to demonstrate their expertise and experience.

In conjunction with the app the brand launched new iNOA formula launch of their new renovated iNOA hair color. Launched in 2009, iNOA is the first no-ammonia hair colour in the market. After 14 years, iNOA has been reformulated making it 60% oil-based which utilizes the unique quality of oil to nourish the scalp and results in high impact colour leveraging the Oil Delivery System Technology. This oil-powered base adds an element of luxury for a personalized in-salon hair colour experience. This new innovative formula will successfully counter the number one consumer barrier to hair coloration: the fear of hair damage.
