Hair kommer alla känslorna : En studie om användarupplevelser kring en frisersalong med tillhörande webbplats

This study aimed to evaluate how a website can be improved for a better user experience. The website this study evaluates belongs to a hair salon, which at the time of the study had a design that did not match the appearance of the salon. The problem was that the website did not justify the business of the salon. By using both qualitative and quantitative methods user needs and preferences could be identified to develop a prototype of a new website. The quantitative method used was a survey which provided answers about functionality and preferences. The qualitative method was a Think Aloud test, which was performed in the hair salon, the users were asked to talk about the atmosphere in the salon and compare it to the atmosphere of the website. With the data gathered through these methods we could compile a result and an analysis, which was used to develop a prototype. We found that users tend to value basic information about the hair salon in combination with factors which increase recognition and credibility. The empirical data on functionality and customer experience of the salon allowed us to develop a prototype that meetsuser needs. The aim of the prototype is to reflect the design of the salon on the web
