Frequently Asked Questions
Why does in-person take so long?
Properly draping requires testing 80-200 fabric swatches against your face under controlled D65 lighting and observing subtle reactions.
Can I do AI analysis in a hurry?
Yes — under a minute. Just make sure your selfie meets quality standards (natural light, no makeup, plain background).
Is faster always less accurate?
Not necessarily. AI analysis can be highly accurate in seconds; a sloppy hour-long quiz can be very inaccurate.
