RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Grooming, such as hair cutting and shaving, is essential for maintaining health and establishing a personal image. Grooming tools that features ease of use and high quality can encourage users to regularly trim their hair and shave, which helps to reduce the bacterial accumulation on the scalp and facial skin to avoid potential skin problems. Therefore, this product series adopts the professional design to provide the high level of grooming service for both professionals and ordinary users.
CHALLENGE: The challenge was to balance aesthetics, practicality, and friendliness to users. This product series uses the contrast between blue and gray, coupled with the hidden digital display, to create a modern and minimalist aesthetic, while the diagonal lines give a visually layered experience. The durable blades, simplified button layout, and lasting battery life contribute to a more comfortable user experience.
