How the haircut try on works

This is not a sticker placed on your head. The AI redraws your hair to match your face shape, head angle and the light in your photo, so a short cut shows your neck and a long cut falls over your shoulders.

The AI is told to keep your face, skin tone, age, expression, clothes and background the same. In our tests those stayed almost identical, and the hair was the only obvious change.

How we tested it

We ran every hairstyle on this page on two fictional people, one with shoulder-length hair and one with short curls. Going much shorter or much longer worked best. Our first bob barely changed a woman who already had similar hair, so we rewrote it to end clearly at the jawline.

We then tried three harder photos: a side-on shot, a dark restaurant photo and a woman with curly hair in a knitted hat. All three worked and the faces held up. The AI removed the hat by itself, and it also turned her curls straight, so tell it apart from your real texture when you judge a result. A clear photo facing the camera is still the safest choice.

Tips for a more accurate result

Use a recent photo in even light, with your hair pulled away from your face if you can. Pick a hairstyle that is clearly different from your current one, because small changes are harder to see.

Treat the picture as a preview, not a promise. Real hair depends on its thickness, texture and how your stylist cuts it.

Will my face change?

The AI is told to change only the hair. In our tests faces stayed almost identical, but check the result, as AI can make small changes.
