Making a modern bun from coconut fiber to support your appearance can be an idea for a business opportunity because the coconut fiber fiber material does not require too much additional material, so the price of a modern bun from coconut fiber is relatively cheaper. The aim of this research is to find out and explain the process of making a modern bun from coconut fiber, validate the modern bun from coconut fiber, and the public's acceptance of the modern bun from coconut fiber. Data collection uses the methods of observation, literature, experiments, documentation, interviews, questionnaires, and data analysis using descriptive qualitative. The sensory test results from 3 coloring trials on the bun were declared valid on product 3 with a total average color of 4.5, a total average texture of 4.3, a total average of packaging of 4.5, while the total the average aroma is 4.1. The results of the public test showed that people's acceptance was at the highest level of liking in experiment 3 with an average total of 4.5 colors, a texture of 4.3, an average total of packaging of 4.5 while an average total of aroma of 4.1. From the research results, making modern buns from coconut fiber is quite good, creative and innovative, so it can be a business opportunity.

This study uses hot glue as the main material for making 3D nail art accessories because of its ease of formation and its potential to reduce nailist dependence on 3D accessory techniques. The author made 3D nail art accessories with and without tool molding, with the aim of understanding the manufacturing process, assessing feasibility, and evaluating the level of public preference for this product. This study used observation, literature, documentation, questionnaire, experiment, and qualitative descriptive analysis methods. The results of the second experiment showed that nail art products from hot glue had high feasibility, with the highest scores on the color indicators (14), adhesion (15), and neatness (14), and designs that received a decent score (13). Public tests from 30 respondents showed a high level of agreement on the aspects of color (4.3), adhesion (3.9), neatness (4.3), and design (4.2). The process of making 3D nail art accessories from hot glue using tool molding involved applying baby oil, shooting hot glue, and cutting with scissors. This study suggests the need for further research to improve the design and color variations of 3D nail art accessories made from hot glue.

Korean wave perm is the latest trend in curling hair. The price of the tools used is in the range of Rp1,000,000 to Rp5,000,000. The purpose of this research is to replace the digital perm tool with a hair dryer so that production costs can be reduced. The methods used in this research are observation, documentation, interviews, literature, questionnaires and experimental methods. Based on the assessment by 5 expert validators about the feasibility technique of using a hair dryer as a tool in curling that the technique effectiveness indicator scored 21 said to be feasible, time efficiency score 23 said to be very feasible, the cost got 21 said to be feasible, and the final result got 24 said to be very feasible. In addition, a public test was conducted to see the results of the public's level of liking for the technique of using a hair dryer as a curling tool by distributing questionnaires to 60 respondents, the results of which were 100% agreed that hair dryers could replace digital perm tools as well as save pioneering salon expenses, in the final results of the technique 55% of respondents liked it, 26.7% of respondents quite liked it and 18.3% of respondents really liked it so that 98.3% of respondents agreed that hair dryers could replace digital perm. It can be concluded that the hair dryer is feasible to use as a substitute for digital perm tools in curling korean wave perm.

Korespondensi: susanti@aksibukartini.ac.id Abstract. A hairclip is a hair extension that is later woven or clamped into real hair. Hairclips give a thick effect to hair. Hair clips are made from synthetic materials, one of which uses organic materials from pineapple leaf fiber waste. The aims of this research are: 1) to know the process of making hairclips using pineapple leaf fiber 2) to know and validate hairclip products using pineapple leaf fiber 3) to know the public's acceptance of hairclips using pineapple leaf fiber. The methods in this research are observation, literature, experiments, documentation, interviews and questionnaires. The experiment was carried out at Ds. Jangkungharjo RT.01 RW.01 Kec. Brati District. Grobogan, Central Java. The experiment was carried out three times, namely by coloring 1) Staining Pineapple Leaf Fibers Using Clothes Dye 2) Staining Pineapple Leaf Fibers Using Color Spray 3) Staining Pineapple Leaf Fibers Using Hair Dye. Product validation is carried out by three validators through sensory tests. The product validation results are the products in the first experiment. The results of the public test conducted on 60 respondents were that the public's level of liking for the product was 3.32, they were interested in the color of the hairclip, the level of liking for the texture was 3.17, the level of ease of use was 3.45 and the level of liking for the aroma of  the hairclip was 3.12. The conclusion is that overall public acceptance is 3.26 with the description category like score. Repairs need to be made so that the hair remains strong and does not break or fall out easily and tools are needed to make the fiber making process easier..    

The development of science and technology encourages the culture of people realizing their sympathy using a bouquet of fresh, dried, or synthetic flowers. Culture is favored by the public because the flower bouquet can be adjusted to the cost of the customer. Synthetic flower bouquet innovation has aesthetic value and long shelf life, the author made a flower crown leaf product using onions. Research to determine the stages of manufacture, valid experimental results, and public acceptance of the product. Using the methods of observation, literature, experimentation, documentation, interviews, questionnaires, and qualitative descriptive data analysis. The product manufacturing stage in the form of preparation of material tools, onion drying, printing, and decorating flowers takes ± 7 days or 1 week. Product validation according to 3 flower arranging experts was declared valid with the characteristics of yellowish brown color, onion fiber pattern, no aroma, and has a smooth wavy texture. The average results of the public test on 61 respondents from the AKS Ibu Kartini Semarang agency showed that the public liked the product (score 2). So that the product is accepted by the community and has the potential to become an opportunity in entrepreneurship. It is better to innovate a substitute for epoxy resin as a preservative for flower crown leaves from onions. Because epoxy resin after drying has a weight that is not comfortable for a bouquet of flowers that are held for a long time such as a bridal ceremony.

This research creates a technique of making paper bones in 3-dimension makeup character using materials that easy to find and affordable price. The methods used are literature, experiment, documentation, interview, questionnaire, and public test. Based on the results of feasibility tests of paper bone’s technique assessed by 6 validators on indicators of application effectiveness declared feasible, time efficiency indicators declared feasible, cost indicators declared very feasible, indicators of ease of discovery of materials declared very feasible. Based on the results of the feasibility test, the appearance of the effects of torn wounds using bones from paper assessed by 6 validators on indicators of wound composition was declared feasible, indicators of color combinations were declared feasible, indicators of similarity to the original wound were declared feasible, and indicators of detail were declared feasible. The results of the public test were conducted by 81 respondents. 96.3% said the wound effect similar to the original one. 100% said this technique affordable. 97.5% said this technique can be an alternative for 3-dimension makeup character cosmetic. 98.8% said this technique is easy to use by beginners. 100% said the ingredients are easy to find. 100% said paper bone can support zombie’s character appearance. 97.5% said interest with this technique. 98.8% said they like this technique. So can be concluded, this technique is worth to apply in 3-dimensional makeup character.
