All of the characters are pretty neutrally designed and could be either boys or girls, even if some lean more toward one or the other of the genders.Īt the end of the project we made some eyelashes a bit smaller to be able to gender-bend more, which I think is really nice! Because usually if a character has big eyelashes they are considered girls almost instantly. To stay true to Toca Boca’s commitment to gender-neutral products, I wanted to make characters who were “pretty” but not necessarily girly. That was one of the most important things that I wanted to improve when I started working on Toca Hair Salon 3. The previous Hair Salon apps, while loved by kids and grown-ups alike, were sometimes criticized for not having “pretty” characters, especially for the characters of color. If you don’t like the current setup, you can just press the randomize button and four new characters will pop up! This way you get a fresh play feeling with new salon customers for a much longer time. We include dozens of character presets, so every time a player opens the app there will be new faces to play with. We gave the characters different personalities, but it’s in the kids’ hands to tell the full story - we are just inspiring them to do whatever they want and giving them the tools to do so.
With Toca Hair Salon 3, we wanted to give kids as much freedom as possible to play however they wanted.
