Cute & Cava

About

The Cute & Cava beauty salon website needed to offer more than just information —it had to provide a seamless service booking experience for customers looking for beauty treatments like haircuts, manicures, and makeup. The challenge was to create an interface that promoted services while integrating a straightforward booking system, helping clients explore offerings, check prices, and reserve appointments effortlessly. The goal was to enhance the customer experience by simplifying navigation and increasing trust, ultimately driving more bookings and customer engagement.

Discovery

Desktop Research

The desktop research for Cute & Cava began with an initial exploration of the beauty industry, focusing on how competitors structure their online presence. This involved reviewing multiple beauty salon websites to understand their approach to service categorization, user flows, and visual design elements. I assessed typical user pain points, such as complex navigation or lengthy booking forms, and identified patterns in how competitors address customer needs. This preliminary research provided a foundation for deeper analysis, guiding the design decisions to improve the user experience for Cute & Cava.

Competitor analysis

For the Cute & Cava project, I conducted a UX competitor analysis, examining how other beauty salon websites approach service discovery and booking processes. I evaluated factors such as user navigation, ease of appointment scheduling, and overall engagement. This analysis helped identify both best practices and areas for improvement, allowing me to design an optimized user experience for Cute & Cava that not only simplifies the booking process but also enhances user satisfaction by addressing pain points commonly found on competitor websites.

Interview

I conducted individual interviews with users to gather their insights on the online alcohol purchasing process, including their likes and dislikes about existing platforms and how they make product selections. To gather quantitative data, I created an online survey distributed to a broad audience of OKWINE users and potential customers. The survey covered alcohol consumption habits, important product characteristics, and experiences with online stores.
After completing the interviews and surveys, I analyzed the data to identify key behavioral patterns and user pain points. This analysis informed further improvements to the OKWINE platform, addressing real user needs and expectations.
