Try hairstyles on your photo before getting a haircut

It is hard to imagine a different haircut from a salon reference photo because the person in the picture has a different face, hair texture and proportions. A useful first step is to compare a few styles on the same photo of yourself, then decide what to discuss with a stylist.

A three-step haircut preview

1. Start with a clear front-facing photo. Keep the lighting even and your face visible. The browser also supports camera capture with your permission.
2. Compare different silhouettes. Try a style that keeps your current length, one shorter cut, and one option with a new fringe or layers. Adjust the overlay to your face instead of judging a generic model.
3. Save a reference to discuss. Share the look voluntarily or save the barber card. Ask a stylist how your real hair density, curl pattern and maintenance routine will change the result.

What should I compare?

• Length: jawline, shoulder or longer styles can change the overall outline.
• Fringe: side bangs, curtain bangs or a full fringe can frame the eyes differently. See our bangs decision guide.
• Clipper lengths: for short cuts, our clipper guard chart turns guard numbers into millimetres and inches.
• Color: preview a few shades before discussing a realistic coloring plan.
• Everyday maintenance: consider whether a look requires heat styling, frequent trims or product.

How FitMyFace works

The regular hairstyle studio overlays a cut on your photo in the browser. You can adjust the style, position and color without an account. A separate optional AI preview is available, but it asks for explicit consent before the photo is sent to Cloudflare. Ordinary glasses and hairstyle preview processing is intended to remain on-device.

Important: A virtual overlay is an approximation, not a guarantee of the finished cut. A hairstyle's appearance depends on real hair growth, length, thickness and styling. The optional AI rendering may change appearance details. Avoid using any preview to judge medical hair concerns or a stylist's professional skill. FitMyFace is for adults 18 and over and is not available in Illinois.

Questions

Can I see how short hair might look without cutting it?

Yes. Try multiple shorter silhouettes and adjust the preview. Bring the result to your stylist for a more realistic conversation.

Will a hairstyle preview show how my natural curls behave?

No. An overlay cannot accurately predict how your curls will shrink, fall or move. Compare ideas, then discuss your texture with a stylist.

Do I need to register or upload my selfie?

You do not need an account. The regular local overlay does not require sending a photo to the optional hairstyle AI service. The optional AI previews (hair and glasses) send a photo to Cloudflare; your consent is the one "I agree" on the scan screen, and a switch on the results turns them off.
