After creating the asset, you can use the following tool to check the correctness of your asset.
Make any necessary changes until validation succeeds.
Use lowercase only.

Once your design passes validation, upload the hair asset to a shared Google Drive folder provided to you.
Submit a folder based on the asset reference name.
