Answers about using Coiffa on iPhone: client photos, consultation and technique guidance, saved sessions, and credits.
Why use Coiffa instead of a general AI chatbot?
Coiffa is an iPhone assistant built around professional hair consultations. It combines professional hair knowledge with your client’s photos and requirements in a workflow for consultation guidance, cutting and color suggestions, and home-care notes. You review its suggestions against your professional assessment before using them.
What photos and information do I need?
Start with photos of your client’s hair and describe what they want to achieve, what they want to keep or change, and their styling routine. Include relevant hair history from your consultation.
You can add an inspiration photo to show the desired look, but it is optional. Client photos show the starting point; an inspiration photo adds context about the result. Only upload photos you have permission to use.
Does Coiffa replace professional hairstylist judgment?
No. Coiffa uses the client's photos and requirements to help you explore service options, explain recommendations, and work through techniques behind the chair. You review the suggestions and make decisions throughout the service.
Can I use Coiffa while carrying out a service?
Yes. Coiffa supports service execution behind the chair with step-by-step cutting and color guidance. Use it during the appointment to clarify technique details and work through the next step in your service plan.
How does Coiffa support color formulation decisions?
Coiffa provides suggestions involving color theory, developer selection, neutralization, and potential chemical damage. Use these to work through a proposed formula alongside your assessment of the client's hair and chemical history.
How can Coiffa help junior stylists prepare for a service?
Coiffa helps junior stylists turn client photos and requirements into a service plan, technique steps, and client talking points. An inspiration photo is optional. Use the guidance to prepare for an unfamiliar appointment, explain your recommendation, and work through the service.
What technical features are included in the application?
Coiffa combines client photos and requirements to support consultations and service execution behind the chair, with multi-angle photo analysis, color formulation suggestions, step-by-step haircut guidance, and shareable client home-care guides. Reference photos are optional supporting material.
Can I revisit a previous analysis?
Yes. Coiffa’s Analysis Library provides a read-only history of saved analysis sessions, including your original request, generated guide, and timestamp. You can revisit a previous session before planning the client’s next service.
Does Coiffa store client photos?
Yes. Coiffa stores and processes submitted photos for analysis. Your saved analysis includes your request, conversation, and generated guidance.
Uploaded photos become eligible for automatic deletion after 7 days; deletion is asynchronous. After deletion, photos leave normal access but may remain recoverable by authorized administrators for a further 7 days. Saved guidance and uploaded photos have different retention rules.
What platforms is Coiffa available on?
Coiffa is available exclusively on iPhone.
What credit tiers are available?
New registered users receive 3 signup credits. Coiffa Pro includes 30 credits per billing period. Credit Packs add 10 top-up credits and can be purchased in the app with or without a Pro subscription.
Credits pay for individual AI responses. A consultation with follow-up responses can use more than one credit.
What does one credit pay for?
One credit pays for one AI analysis response, including a follow-up response. For example, an initial analysis followed by two AI follow-up responses uses 3 credits. A credit does not cover an entire consultation with unlimited follow-ups.
Opening and reading an already saved analysis does not generate a new response or use another credit.
How much does Coiffa cost?
Coiffa offers a Pro subscription and separate Credit Packs. Check the purchase screen in the iPhone app for the current price in your App Store currency before you buy. You can also view the available in-app purchases on Coiffa’s App Store listing.
