Mobile App Design for a Professional Training & Booking Platform for Hairdressing Academies

Overview

JAcademy is a mobile platform designed to connect hairdressers, trainers, and product distributors in one seamless system for booking, education, and professional networking. I designed the end-to-end user experience from research to high-fidelity UI.


Designed for efficiency, it simplifies booking, salon coordination, and communication, ensuring a smooth experience for all users.

My role

As the UX/UI designer for this project, I was responsible for the entire design process, from research to final interface design.


I conducted user research to understand the needs of each role, created wireframes and prototypes, and developed a clear and intuitive interface tailored to the platform’s different users.
