Eye Universe Inc., operating the Digital Salon Association (Location: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, hereinafter: the Company), held the 3rd session of its regular AI training program "DejiSalo DX" for the beauty industry on Tuesday, April 22, 2026, and Wednesday, April 29, 2026.
"Isn't AI irrelevant to me?" — Hairdressers who felt this way completely changed after the training. This time's theme was "Basic Understanding of Gemini and Claude and Image Generation." A wide range of professions, from stylists and assistants to managers and recruitment staff, participated. In the post-training survey, all participants continued to report "highly satisfied," and the AI utilization motivation score was 10 out of 10 for the majority.

■ On the Day
Instructor Hiroki Suzuki first asked, "Those who are bad at AI, please honestly raise your hands." Participants who raised their hands left the venue with a feeling that they could "use it starting tomorrow."
As the unique characteristics and proper usage of ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini, along with the high quality of image generation, were revealed one after another, sounds of surprise rose from the venue. Especially the facts that "voice input is becoming mainstream" and "the quality of image generation has increased this much" were significant discoveries for many participants.
■ Participant Voices
✅ "I was worried because I knew nothing about AI, but the explanations were clear and helpful. I feel I can use it for Instagram image editing and data management."

✅ "This day made me reaffirm my desire to be a hairdresser who constantly updates myself."

✅ "I want to create an environment where field stylists can move more proactively, viewing AI not as an 'added value' but as a 'necessity.'"
— Recruitment/Human Resources Development/Planning
