Tress was designed as a social community application catering to the hairstyle needs of women, particularly Black women. Recognizing the significant interest women have in their hair and the frequent, often radical, changes they make, Tress aimed to provide a platform for discovering and sharing beautiful hairstyles. The app sought to address the common desire for detailed information about hairstyles, including salon details, product names, and costs, which women often seek through direct inquiries or social media stalking.
Tress offered a user-friendly interface where women could find inspiration, access crucial hairstyle information, and connect with others. Users could create profiles, upload photos of their hairstyles with relevant details (salon/stylist, products used, price range), follow other users, and engage within a vibrant community through likes and comments. The vision was to create a comprehensive database of hairstyles for each user, allowing them to easily reference past styles and related information.
