The AI aims to keep your face, skin tone and hair color while changing the haircut, so you can compare looks side by side. Check the shade before deciding.

Try on hairstyles on your own face
A haircut is hard to undo, and a model’s photo can’t tell you how a cut will sit on you. When you try on hairstyles with your own picture, you can judge three things a magazine can’t.
Your proportions
Fringe, volume and where a cut ends change how long or wide your face looks.
Your hair color
Your natural shade is kept, so a cut you saw in blonde is shown in your own color.
Side by side
Try on hairstyles in sets of three, compare them in one view and save one for your stylist.
How to try on hairstyles with your picture
- 01
Upload a selfie
To try on hairstyles, use a clear, front-facing head-and-shoulders photo in even light, hair off your face.
- 02
Check your face shape
Your photo is read on your device, not uploaded, and you see your face shape with a tip on what flatters it.
- 03
Pick up to three cuts
Filter by Women or Men and by length or bangs. Cuts that suit your face shape are marked Suits you.
- 04
Compare and save
Generate realistic photos, drag the slider to compare before and after, then download or save to your closet.
Try on hairstyles that suit your face shape
Stylists start with face shape, and so does this tool: it measures your forehead, cheekbones, jaw and face length from the photo. It is a guide, not a rule; the surest test is to try on hairstyles and look.
| Face shape | What helps | Cuts to try |
|---|---|---|
| Oval | Balanced proportions | Almost anything: soft pixie, A-line lob, long layers |
| Round | Length and height | A-line lob, curtain bangs with long layers, classic side part, textured quiff |
| Square | Softness around the jaw | Beach waves, butterfly cut, side-swept bangs, crew cut |
| Heart | Volume near the jaw | French bob with bangs, side-swept bangs, textured French crop |
| Oblong | Width and a fringe | Wispy bangs, curly shag, French bob, middle-part curtains |
| Diamond | A fringe and volume at the chin | Soft pixie, sleek blunt bob, long defined curls, buzz cut |
| Triangle | Volume on top | Soft pixie, wolf cut, textured quiff, curly top with high fade |
Face shape detection is approximate and works best on a straight-on photo with your hair pulled back.

Live preview vs AI photo: two ways to try on hairstyles
The AI photo is ready today: it redraws your hair strand by strand, so you see real texture, volume and how a fringe falls. Live hair color already works in your camera on our hair color page; a live bangs preview comes next, free and on your device. As an overlay, it can’t make your hair look shorter.

Hairstyle ideas to try: short, medium, long, bangs and men’s cuts
Browse all 25 cuts before you try on hairstyles. The groups are only filters: anyone can pick any style.
Short
Soft pixie, French bob with bangs, sleek blunt bob and tapered natural curls. Short cuts are the riskiest, so try on hairstyles like these first.
Medium
A-line lob, wolf cut, shoulder beach waves, curly shag and side-swept bangs: easy to grow out.
Long
Curtain bangs with long layers, butterfly cut, sleek straight hair, long defined curls and knotless box braids.
Bangs
Straight-across, wispy, curtain and side-swept fringes. Bangs change a face more than any other cut, a top reason to try on hairstyles before a trim.
Men’s cuts
Men can try on hairstyles from a buzz cut, crew cut or low taper fade to a French crop, quiff, side part, curtains, modern mullet, curly top fade or shoulder-length flow.
Try different hair colors before you dye
The tool keeps your natural color on purpose, so every cut is judged on the hair you have. Color is a separate choice: your skin’s undertone and contrast decide whether ash, golden or copper shades flatter you.
Our sister site ColorSeasonAI has a free guide to what color to dye your hair based on your color season.
Then see the shade on your own hair, live in your camera, with our free hair color try on and come back to try on hairstyles with the cut and the color together.
Hairstyle apps vs a free website to try on hairstyles
Most hairstyle apps need an install, and many lock results behind a weekly subscription. A website lets you try on hairstyles in any phone or laptop browser.
| Option | How it works | Realism | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| WearTryOn | Upload a selfie; AI redraws only your hair | Realistic; face and hair color kept | Free face shape check; 5 credits per photo |
| Hairstyle apps | Install, then pick from a style library | From pasted-on wigs to AI photos | Free trial, then a subscription |
| AR filters | Camera filters inside social apps | Fun, but looks like a sticker | Free |
| Salon consultation | A stylist reads your face and hair | Expert advice, no preview | Needs a visit |

Tips for a realistic hairstyle try-on
- 01Face the camera with your eyes level; a turned head throws off the face shape reading.
- 02Pull your hair back before you try on hairstyles, so your hairline and jaw show.
- 03Use soft light from the front, not a bright window behind you.
- 04Leave space above your head for volume and long lengths.
- 05To try different hairstyles fairly, change one thing at a time, such as length or fringe.
- 06Show your stylist the result plus a photo of the back; the preview shows only the front.

Will the result still look like me?
That is the goal. The AI keeps your face, age, expression, clothes and background and changes only the hair. If a result doesn’t look like you, try on hairstyles again with a sharper photo.
