How to try on hairstyles in three steps
Try on hairstyles in under a minute, before anybody picks up a pair of clippers.
Upload a photo to try on hairstyles
Face the camera with your hairline visible. Push a fringe off your forehead if you have one. The hairstyle generator needs to see where your hair starts before it can fit a new hairstyle to it.
Pick a hairstyle from the catalogue
You can try on hairstyles from all 28 in the catalogue, grouped by shape: fade hairstyles, crops, fringes, volume, mullets and longer hairstyles. Each one carries a three-panel reference, so you know which hairstyle you are choosing before you spend a credit on it.
Take the hairstyle to your barber
Your own face, your own hairline, the new hairstyle blended in. Try on hairstyles until one is right, download it, and show it at the chair. A photo answers what a hairstyle name always leaves open.
Three fade hairstyles that differ only behind the ear
Taper, mid and burst are three different hairstyles, and the thing separating them — how high the fade starts and what shape its line takes — is invisible head-on. It lives behind the ear, which is why you try on hairstyles here with a side and back view attached to every one.
Korean Textured Taper Fade
The lowest of the three. One smooth gradient with no visible line anywhere, following the hairline down the nape, under a centre-parted textured top.

Textured Mid Fade
The line starts halfway up, level with the temple, and blends to skin at the ear. Neither low by the ear nor high near the crown — a distinction you can only judge in profile.

Burst Fade Mullet
Not a line at all but a semicircle around the ear, leaving the nape long with no hard neckline. Head-on this is indistinguishable from a taper until you turn.
Try on this hairstyleWho tries on hairstyles before the haircut
Three situations where you try on hairstyles rather than imagine them.
You have never changed your hairstyle
If you have had the same hairstyle since school, the risk is not the change itself. It is not knowing which hairstyles your face can carry. Try on hairstyles that look nothing like your current one and the answer arrives in about a minute, which is roughly two months faster than finding out the usual way.
You are growing your hair out, or cutting it off
Mid-grow is the hardest place to judge hairstyles from. Try on hairstyles at the length you are aiming for and you can see whether the destination is worth the awkward months. Or try on hairstyles at the other extreme, a buzz cut or a short taper fade, to find out whether the fast route is survivable.
You are booked in and unsure which hairstyle to ask for
Asking for "something shorter on the sides" gets you whichever hairstyle your barber defaults to. Handing over a photo of your own head already wearing the hairstyle gets you the one you came for. Barbers work from pictures all day, and hairstyles they can see beat hairstyles you are describing.
One photo, four hairstyles, the same face
Same face, same beard, same lighting. Try on hairstyles here and the generator edits the hair on your head, leaving everything else exactly where it was.
No studio photo required to try on hairstyles
Sitting, standing, indoors, backlit at golden hour. You can try on hairstyles with whatever photo is already on your phone, as long as your hairline is showing.
Try on hairstyles from the picker at the top of this page, where all 28 are grouped into fade hairstyles, crops, fringes, volume, mullets and longer hairstyles.
Why try on hairstyles before the haircut
Three reasons to try on hairstyles first: the one you ask for is not always the one you get.
Growing a beard instead, or as well? The beard try-on works the same way on the bottom half of your face, and hairstyles by face shape narrows 28 hairstyles to about five before you start.

Hairstyle names mean different things to different barbers
Ask ten barbers for a textured crop and you will get ten hairstyles. The name describes a rough family, not a specification. Try on hairstyles first and you leave with a picture, which is unambiguous in a way the name never is.

Hairstyles are a two-month commitment
Hair grows roughly a centimetre a month. Try on hairstyles that turn out too short and nothing happens; get the same answer in the chair and you live with it through several cycles. There is no undo, only waiting.

Your head is not the model's head
Lookbook hairstyles are shot on people picked because those hairstyles suit them. Try on hairstyles against your own hairline, forehead and face shape and you are answering a different question, and the only one that decides anything.
Common questions about the hairstyle try-on
How does the hairstyle simulator work with my own photo?
Upload a photo, choose from the catalogue, and the AI edits your picture so you are wearing that hairstyle. Your face, expression, skin tone, clothing and background stay exactly as they were, and only the hairstyle changes. Every hairstyle goes to the model with its three-view reference sheet, which is what keeps the sides and back accurate rather than guessed.
Is it free to try on hairstyles here?
You can try on hairstyles once for free with no account and no card. After that, a free account adds more credits so you can try on hairstyles until you find the one you want.
Why is every hairstyle shown from three angles?
Because several hairstyles are identical head-on in any hairstyle simulator. Taper, mid and burst fade hairstyles differ only in how high the fade starts and what shape its line takes, none of which reads head-on. Try on hairstyles from the front only and you could pick the wrong one and not find out until you were in the chair.
Can I try on hairstyles with my hair type?
The hairstyle generator keeps your own hair colour and works from the photo you give it, so hairstyles suited to the hair you already have look most convincing. Hairstyles built on heavy straight hair read less plausibly on tight curls, and the reverse is equally true. Treat those hairstyles as a rough shape rather than a promise.
What photo works best for trying on hairstyles?
Front-facing, evenly lit, with your whole hairline visible and nothing covering your forehead or ears. Hats, headphones and hair pushed forward all hide the edges the hairstyle generator needs in order to blend new hairstyles in naturally.
Can I show the hairstyle to my barber?
That is exactly what it is for. Try on hairstyles, download the one you want, and bring it up at the chair. Barbers work from photos constantly, and hairstyles on your own head answer the questions a name leaves open.
How many times can I try on hairstyles?
There are 28 hairstyles in the catalogue and no limit beyond your credit balance. Your uploaded photo stays put when you switch, so the second and third time you try on hairstyles never means uploading again.
Is my photo kept private?
Your upload is processed securely and is never published. Hairstyles you generate go to your own history and stay visible only to you unless you choose to share one.
