A tablet, a USB 60× lens and Bloomtastic AI turn the hair care aisle into a consultation. The customer sees their scalp, gets products matched to what the analysis found, and leaves with a PDF report.

How do pharmacies use AI hair analysis?

Pharmacies and drugstore chains use AI hair analysis to help shoppers choose hair care products with confidence. With Bloomtastic AI on a tablet and a USB 60× lens, counter staff photograph the scalp. The app produces a scalp and hair report covering 10+ scalp conditions in as little as 2 minutes, matches products and e-mails the customer a PDF report.

What changes at the shelf

• From guessing to choosing. Shoppers facing a wall of shampoos see their own scalp at 60× and a product matched to each finding.
• Staff who can explain. Promoters and counter staff follow the app’s guided flow, and the report gives them the words.
• A reason to come back. The PDF report lands in the customer’s inbox and gives them a reason to return for another analysis. Sending offers to that address needs the customer’s consent under the PDPO direct-marketing rules.
• Hardware that fits a counter. An iPad or Android tablet plus the USB lens. No kiosk, and it works at a counter, a promotion table or a pop-up.

How a store pilot works

We can agree the pilot duration and participating stores with you. Measures can include scans per day, purchases after a scan, report e-mail sign-ups, repeat scans within 30–90 days and products sold.

1. Pick stores and a hair care category.
2. Load the product list: your own range, or brands sponsoring it through VMP.
3. We train your counter staff online, then you run consultations at the counter or in a promotion week.
4. Measure scans, purchases after a scan, e-mail opt-ins and repeat scans. These become your own numbers; we do not quote uplift figures we have not measured with you.

For brands on your shelves

Brands can sponsor the recommendation list through VMP and run promotion weeks with their own promoters on Bloomtastic.
