Style My Hair: try on & color 4+

Some of the brown colors kept glitching or something where it would just be white. The app crashed almost 7 times within the first 10 minutes of me using it. It also wouldn’t let me pick a photo from my camera roll, only a live picture.

I figured since this was from L’Oreal, who have been around for forever, they’d have someone decent programming their app. Wow, was I wrong!! I’m trying to set up my hair profile, when it got the the question about my last treatment, I clicked the appropriate button, and then the “Next” arrow. App shut down. This happens, so I reopened it and tried again. It shut down again. And the quickly blinking pictures of hair models at the top of the landing page, geeeeezus!!! It was like those Christmas lights that blink way too fast, and remind you of a 90s rave. Only works if you’re on something, or so I’ve heard! After the 3rd attempt and the app shutting down at the same spot, I’m done. I’m on an iPhone 11 Pro Max, so it’s not my phone. If your app is not iPhone compatible, than, really, just don’t make an app. Seriously. I am now questioning whether I want to continue using their hair color, as I’ve don’t for years. If they are that careless with their app, are they being careless with the manufacturing of their hair color?! Begs the question.

I’m dying my hair darker next week and I wanted a sneak peak of what it would look like- this app delivered! They had different shades of brown so I could see which one looked best on me, free to use without needing a trial period or payment plan. I gave it four stars because the filters were only effective on about half the photos I used, up close selfies gave the best results. Sometimes it tinted the photo weird without changing my hair too much, but on the other half of the photos it worked great! Overall I’m satisfied with this app and would recommend it for anyone wanting to know what their hair would look like dyed.
