The idea

A walk-in 3D salon where visitors try knotless braids, box braids, cornrows and twists on a 3D model, then text to book. The site turns browsing styles into the first step of the appointment.

About this project. Boss Lady African Braiding Salon is a real business; this website is a concept I designed and built as spec work to show what its site could be. It is not a commissioned project and has not been endorsed by the business. Screenshots are taken from the live concept at rays-personal-website.pages.dev/sites/boss-lady-braiding.
