現代社會面臨著快速轉變的環境、生活作息與工作壓力等多重因素，使得落髮、白髮等頭皮問題愈趨嚴重，尤其是在疫情期間，我們觀察到消費者三大趨勢方向的改變：「外在造型需求下降」、「頭皮養護意識提升」、「偏好專業品牌」。因此，頭皮養護產品市場前景廣闊。

髮林國際致力能為人們解決頭皮健康的問題，自行研發天然草本健康髮泥，但轉型歷程中遭遇到人才斷層與培養不易，以及有限資源下如何推行展店等問題。為了解決這些問題，導入AI科技結合健康髮泥，發展AI頭皮檢測系統，提供顧客全新科技服務體驗。在轉型歷程中，力求尋找能與傳統頭皮養護不同的新穎精確的方式，歷經多方嘗試，從AI科技中找到與影像數據為根基，發展出新的業務策略，因此奠定髮林數位資產的優勢，由傳統髮廊走到智能髮廊的科技商業模式，為美髮業帶來了更大的商業價值和社會價值。
對髮林來說，真正的挑戰在於轉型後的各種困境開始浮現，舉例來說科技養護人才的缺乏造成業務停滯、解決新舊團隊磨合與衝突及如何打造出具有差異化優勢的頭皮養護品牌。面對這些挑戰，髮林未因環境因素而限制品牌成長，而是透過引進科技和數位轉型，翻轉傳統美髮業的營運模式，結合傳統技藝美和科技產業的健康美，讓自然美的健康得以延續，為美的產業賦予新生命。

本研究以哈佛個案教學方式撰寫，結合實務個案與管理理論的探討，本研究探討傳統中小型企業數位轉型過程中核心競爭策略、組織運作、品牌價值、科技賦能等轉型過程中所面臨營運管理議題，藉由資源基礎理論分析核心競爭力，推演市場策略，並在經營危機時思考新商業模式，創新顧客服務。運用品牌管理重塑品牌核心價值及運用組織二元性靈巧，並在組織架構和人才培養等方面進行持續改進，以提高企業運作效率和靈活性，迎接未來的挑戰。

Today, various factors, including rapid environmental changes, disrupted lifestyles, and work-related stress, have exacerbated issues like hair loss and premature graying, particularly evident during the pandemic. As a result of these dynamics, we have observed three significant shifts in consumer trends: a decreased emphasis on external appearance, a heightened awareness of scalp care, and a preference for professional-grade brands. Consequently, the market for scalp care products holds substantial potential.

Hairing International is committed to addressing scalp health issues and has developed a proprietary natural herbal healthy hair mud as part of this endeavor. During its transition, the company encountered challenges, including a scarcity of skilled workers, cultivation difficulties, and limited resources for store expansion. To tackle these issues, the company introduced AI technology to complement its healthy hair mud product, resulting in the creation of an AI scalp analysis system that provides customers with an entirely new technological service experience. Throughout this transformation, the company aimed to discover innovative and precise methods distinct from traditional scalp care approaches. After numerous attempts, it found its foundation in AI technology, particularly by leveraging image data. This discovery led to the formulation of new business strategies. The establishment of Hairing's digital assets provided the foundation for its transition from a traditional hair salon to a tech-driven intelligent hair salon business model. As a result, Hairing International has generated increased commercial and societal value within the hair care industry.

For Hairing, the real challenge lies in the emergence of various post-transition difficulties. For instance, the lack of technology-driven talent has led to business stagnation. Addressing the integration and conflicts between the new and old teams, along with creating a distinctive advantage for scalp care branding, constitutes significant challenges. Faced with these hurdles, Hairing has not allowed environmental factors to restrict its brand growth. Instead, it has harnessed technology and undergone digital transformation to revolutionize the operational model of the traditional beauty industry. By merging the artistry of tradition with the health-focused aspects of the tech sector, it has seamlessly extended the legacy of natural beauty's health. This rejuvenation breathes new life into the beauty industry.

This research is written in the Harvard case study teaching method, combining practical case studies with discussions on management theory. This study discusses the core competitive strategy, organizational operation, brand value, and technological empowerment of traditional small and medium-sized enterprises on the road to digital transformation, such as operational management issues faced in the transformation process. Use the resource-based theory to analyze the core competitiveness, deduce market strategies, and consider new business models and innovative customer services during business crises.

To reshape brand value through the method of brand management. And to continuously improve organizational structure and talent development in two aspects by utilizing the Organizational Ambidexterity theory, use these to improve the efficiency and flexibility of corporate operations and meet future challenges.
