Hair Salon makes full use of the Nintendo DSi camera function. It is the perfect game for girls of all ages who are interested in the world of hair and make-up. By utilising the built in camera, players can take photos of themselves or friends and can create brand new looks and styles. Players can even become the in game character. Hair Salon is also the first game to use Automatic Face Recognition- a technical innovation that will automatically take a user’s picture once their face is in shot, ensuring a picture perfect photo every time.

“505 Games have a long, successful history with the Nintendo DS platform so it is only natural that we would respond and adapt innovatively to the new format.” commented Victoria Martin, Global Brand Manager for 505 Games. “Hair Salon offers a fully interactive hairstyling experience for young girls and we are excited to see how the consumer will react to the content we’ve produced for the Nintendo DSi”

Interactivity is the root of the fun in Picture Perfect Hair Salon, as the title allows players to become in-game characters, enabling them to experiment with different hairstyles. Players can also participate in contests to win awards that will help increase their ranking in the salon world.

“Girls everywhere have long enjoyed experimenting with different hairstyles, and now they can not only take the fun on the go with Nintendo DSi, but they can also see exactly how hairstyles will look on themselves and their friends with Picture Perfect Hair Salon,” said Adam Kline, president of 505 Games (U.S.). “‘Tween and teen girls are sure to enjoy personalizing new looks with this all-new video game.”
