Hair and Hair Alone is designed to deliver customized
hair weather forecasts and hair care information tailored
to your hair. The customizable features can easily be set
up by entering data in two key areas of the app:
1) About My Hair
2) My Hair Day.
About My Hair- Within Settings & Information, this is the
place where we ask you six simple questions about your hair.
Your answers will impact the hair care and product
recommendations provided in Tips, Products and Care.
My Hair Day- Since no two heads are alike, this home
screen feature allows you to adjust the predictive My
Hair Weather forecast to better reflect your own real world
experiences. The way it works is simple. Every day, over a
several day period, enter how your hair reacts to the weather.
Over time, our predictive forecasting model will adjust future f
orecasts to be more reflective of what you have experienced in the
past. Entering the data is easy. You just rate your hair appearance
each day on a sliding scale. The center of the scale represents the
Perfect/Best Hair Day and the opposing ends of the scale represent
the extreme conditions of dry/typically winter weather on one end
and moist & humid/typically summer conditions on the other end.
After you have inputted at least three days of information to
My Hair Day, use the Hair and Hair Alone Report feature found
in Settings & Information to monitor, in graphical form, how
your Hair and Hair Alone forecasts are being adjusted based on the daily
information you have input. Over time, the “MHW Forecast” and
“Your Hair Data” plot lines should converge. At this point, your
Hair and Hair Alone forecasts have been completely adjusted to predict
future hair weather forecasts based on your past hair weather experiences.
All three features are designed to help your hair look its
best in any hair weather condition. Information delivered to
you is customized based on the hair data you enter in About My
Hair.
