## What it does

You start with a hand on your hip, then break into a confident dance with hip sways, a shoulder shimmy and a hair flip. The clip ends on a cheeky pose with a raised eyebrow.

## From our test

We tried a woman in jeans and a black top in a bright studio, and she swayed from side to side before striking a pose by the last frame. Her outfit and the room stayed the same throughout.

## Tips for the best photo

- Use a full-body photo so your hips and arms have room to move.
- Stand in a relaxed, upright pose in a plain, bright room.
- Wear clothes that fit the outline of your body, since loose fabric can blur the dance moves.

## Ideas for using it

- A creator making a quick dance-challenge intro for TikTok.
- A friend joking around in a birthday or party group chat.
- A clothing brand showing how jeans move in motion.

## FAQ
