before the scissors.

One front-facing photo, five hairstyles and four optional colour directions. See the length, volume and outline on your own face before you decide to book the salon.

The style book

One face, five directions to discuss.

Not about which cut looks best. About seeing what actually changes: length, outline and volume. Colour is a direction for the salon, not a recoloured preview.

The illustrations keep the original colour. Pick a direction here to add it to the summary; the real result depends on your base tone.

When you want to keep some length but take away weight; this is the default case in the book.

Salon summary · illustration

Style: Collarbone cut — collarbone length, soft layers, face-framing transition. Colour direction: Keep original colour. Bring this to the salon and confirm what your hair can do.

All photos are style illustrations created for this page, not outputs from the tool. Each real run uses one hairstyle and one colour; the tool's result is the reference.

How it works

From a photo to the salon chair.

  1. Step 1

    Take a clear photo

    Use a front-facing photo where your hair is clearly visible, with no hat or sunglasses. Confirm you have permission from the person in the photo. JPEG, PNG and WebP up to 10 MB are supported.

  2. Step 2

    Pick a cut and a colour

    Choose one of five hairstyles and keep your colour or pick one of four directions. The price is shown before anything runs, and you confirm the run yourself.

  3. Step 3

    Compare, then talk it through

    Drag to compare your photo with the cut, download the result and bring it to the salon. Real texture, blow-drying and dye results still depend on your hair.

Full combinations

Narrow the direction first

Five hairstyles and five colour directions. Shortlist two or three before you spend credits on the one you really want to see.

Same face

Don't get lost in model photos

Every illustration keeps the same person, so you compare length, curl and outline, not someone else's face.

Take the summary

From preview to the chair

Copy the cut, colour and outline notes and let your stylist check what is realistic for your hair.

A preview is a direction, not a promise of the salon result.

Before the salon chair

Less “you decide”, more to look at.

Three planning scenarios, not customer reviews. The people and places are illustrative.

Amara · Toronto

Amara wanted shorter hair, but not all the way to her jaw.

She used to show her stylist someone else's bob, and “a bit shorter” never meant the same length to both of them. Comparing collarbone-length directions let her settle on where to stop and how soft the face-framing should be.

For a first big change, compare neighbouring lengths instead of jumping straight to the jaw.

Jules · Manchester

Jules' wedding hair was no longer just “natural”.

He could not explain the amount of curl or volume he wanted. The curly direction moved the conversation to curl size, overall volume and the face shape he wanted to keep, instead of one vague adjective.

A wedding style still deserves a real trial; a preview only helps the conversation.

Ren · Melbourne

Ren wanted to try a buzz cut and name the worry first.

He was unsure how much of his head and face a very short cut would expose. Seeing the outline first made it something he could discuss with the barber, along with length and fading.

Ask whether the barber can step down from a longer buzz rather than committing in one pass.

After the preview

Don't stop at the direction.

Carry the decision forward: write down the parameters, then see what else you can do with a clear photo.

Salon summary

Pick a cut and a colour in the style book and the page writes a short summary you can copy and send to your stylist. It is a communication aid, not a tool output.

The hairstyle result does not carry over. The other tool asks you to upload the photo and choose a style again.

This page does not upload your photo or spend credits. You confirm every run in the tool itself.

Before the scissors

What a preview can and cannot decide.

This page does not upload your photo. Before you run the tool, check its current privacy notes. The facts above come from the tool's live settings.

How realistic is the preview?

The new hair is blended with your photo's head angle and lighting, and your face is kept exactly as-is. It's a faithful preview of the cut's shape and volume on your head — small details like how your hair falls after a real blow-dry will vary at the salon.

Can I try colours too?

Yes — natural black, cool brown, honey brown or ash grey, or keep your original colour. Colour previews are indicative: your hair's base tone affects how a dye actually turns out, so treat it as a direction for your colourist.

My photo has a hat / sunglasses — will it work?

Please use a front-facing photo with hair clearly visible and no hat or sunglasses. The better the tool can see your current hair and face, the more convincing the try-on.

Does it change my face?

No. The rule in the edit is explicit: same face, same skin tone, same expression — only the hairstyle (and colour) changes. If you also want styling, clothing and background changed, that's AI Portrait's job.

Your next haircut can start with a look.

Pick the photo where your hair is clearest, try a direction, and take the one that feels right to the salon.
