The Challenge

Simplifying Music Streaming – Fast, Seamless, and Personalized for Every Listener!

Listeners often face challenges in discovering and enjoying music due to cluttered interfaces, limited search and filtering capabilities, and poorly organized music libraries. Many platforms fall short in offering personalized recommendations, making it difficult for users to find songs that match their unique tastes and moods. Additionally, poor mobile optimization hinders the listening experience on the go. The absence of seamless playback, offline access, and intuitive playlist management further contributes to user frustration, leading to low engagement and high churn rates.

Objective/Goal

The goal of this music streaming platform is to simplify the music discovery and listening experience by offering an intuitive, user-friendly, and visually appealing interface. It aims to streamline music search, playlist creation, and playback flows, ensuring a smooth and engaging user experience. The platform will focus on mobile-first design, high-quality streaming, and personalized music recommendations to enhance user satisfaction. Additionally, it will include curated content, social sharing features, and an admin dashboard for artists and content creators, ensuring a seamless experience for both listeners and music providers.

My Design Process

User Feedback:

I think it is straight-forward process and intuitive to complete but I think there should be more instructions and info about the personal regimen.. Overall I like the idea"

After creating the personal regimen, I need more instructions below, to learn more about the method."

I think it is absolutely great that the app allows users to "select multiple options" for primary hair concerns. The questionnaire lengths also make sense to me.

After responses have been collected, I added a bit more context through a brief write up. I explained how the regimen was created/crafted through the responses that had been provided.

Before

After

A big priority in the application is giving users autonomy. I iterated by adding an option/prompt to 'edit' the created regimen and also giving users the option to schedule a reminder.

Before

After

Task 1

All users were able to open the prototype and felt that the interface was very familiar. They completed the scenario with minimal friction independently.

Task 2

All Users could easily type a message and spotted the scheduling tooltip prompt.

Task 3

All users could Schedule the message to be sent 15 minutes before school dismisses at 15:00

Future Impact

This project represents an important step in supporting the natural hair community with tools that empower users to embrace and manage their hair journeys. The following recommendations and potential future impacts could help guide the development and long-term growth of the app.

  1. Enhanced Personalization Through AI: As the app gathers more data, it can become more accurate in suggesting products, routines and services tailored to users' unique hair profiles. This will make it a go-to resource for highly customised hair care, fostering deeper user engagement.
  2. Partnerships with Hair Care Brands and Salons: Establish partnerships with local and international natural hair care brands and salons, allowing for product or service integrations directly in the app.
  3. Augmented Reality (AR) for Try-On Features: Incorporate AR features where users can virtually try on different hairstyles, cuts or hair colours to visualise what looks good on them before committing to changes. This could create an engaging and fun experience that makes the app more interactive, increasing user retention.
  4. Education and Advocacy: Introduce extensive educational content and resources about the history, politics and cultural significance of natural hair. This could take the form of blog posts, podcasts or mini-documentaries. By educating users on the deeper significance of natural hair, the app can build a stronger emotional connection with its audience, leading to higher retention rates and making it a platform that celebrates and advocates for natural hair pride.

These suggestions could solidify 'Kinks and Coils' as a leader in the natural haircare industry and expand its influence on a global scale.

A place where every vibe gets streamed.
