Features

5. How does the "Try 3D haircut/beard" function work?

Take a photo of the client with the app. The photo will be sent to a secure artificial intelligence API that will generate a 3D model of the client's face without hair or beard. You can then choose from a variety of haircuts, beards, and accessories to customize the client's appearance.

6. It seems like magic! What algorithm is used?

After nearly 2 years of development, we have created a custom artificial intelligence model (pytorch) that transforms the photo into a 3D geometry. The corresponding texture is extracted using pymesh, various corrections are applied using opencv (mainly lighting and colors), and finally the model is rendered using Blender. The hair models were created in Maya and rendered in Blender. The resulting hair/beard image is then "adapted" to the person's face each time. The iOS and Android application is developed using Flutter.

7. What is AI Stylist and how does it work?

AI Stylist is an advanced StyleForge feature that uses artificial intelligence to provide personalized style consultations to barbers and clients. By analyzing face shape, hair length, facial features, and aesthetic preferences, the algorithm automatically suggests the most suitable haircuts and beard styles for each person. Thanks to the combination of machine learning, 3D facial recognition, and professional styling data, AI Stylist enhances the salon experience, reduces the margin of error in choosing a look, and increases customer satisfaction. It's the perfect tool for barbers who want to offer a modern, fast, and highly professional service.

8. What does the "Academy" section include?

The "StyleForge Academy" section provides regular updates on trends, equipment, and reviews in the barbering industry. Only registered users of the app can access this exclusive content and stay updated on the latest trends.

Subscriptions and In-App Purchases

9. What are credits?

Every time you create a 3D model of your client's face or every time you read a new Academy article, you consume credits (the amount is shown in the app). When credits run out, to continue using the app you will need to either wait for the free monthly recharge or purchase more from the shop.

Don't worry about running out of credits: we have thought of several ways to get them. Every month you will automatically receive a free credit top-up, so you can continue using the app without interruptions. Additionally, you can earn extra credits by performing certain actions, such as:

• Share videos on social media and promote our app
• Invite your friends with a referral code: when they sign up, you both receive bonus credits!!
• Achieve goals, such as creating 10 3D models
• Log in every day for a consecutive week

PS: don't forget to claim your rewards! just open the "your rewards" section

10. How long do credits last?

Credits have unlimited duration and never expire

11. What subscription options are available?

We offer different subscription options that may vary based on duration (monthly, quarterly, annual). You can find all details and prices in the "Purchase Subscription" section within the app. The subscription allows you to generate an unlimited number of 3D models and access the Academy section whenever you want. You can cancel your subscription at any time from the app settings, the service will remain regularly active until the end of the current billing period. For more details about cancellations and refunds, you can refer to the official Apple Store and Google Play store pages.
