About

AI Hairstyle Changer is a browser-based tool that shows how a new haircut or hair color would look on a person's own photo before they commit to a salon appointment. Choosing a dramatic cut or a new shade is a decision people often regret, and static inspiration photos do not show how a style would sit on a specific face.

The tool works in four steps: a user uploads a front-facing JPEG, PNG, or WebP portrait up to 10 MB, picks from more than 100 hairstyles organized into categories such as bobs, pixie cuts, layered waves, braids, and updos, chooses a solid color or a root-to-tip gradient, and receives a before-and-after preview within roughly 30 seconds. Results can be downloaded and shown to a hairstylist. The service is operated by Startime Technology Co., Limited, a company based in Hong Kong, and runs in a desktop or mobile browser without any app installation.

Key Features

100+ hairstyle library: Users can browse 104 named styles across categories including straight and smooth looks, bobs and lobs, short cuts, layered and wavy styles, curly textures, ponytails, braids, and vintage statement cuts.
Hair color and gradient previews: More than 20 color options, from natural shades like chestnut and honey blonde to bold colors like pastel pink and blue, can be applied as solid colors or root-to-tip gradients.
Reference photo mode: A user can upload a separate photo of a hairstyle they like, and the tool applies that cut, length, and texture to their own portrait while keeping their face from the original photo.
AI Styling Advisor: An optional paid feature offers six subjective style suggestions based on the user's visible face shape, photo, and stated preferences, without diagnosing skin conditions or guaranteeing a single best style.
Side-by-side comparison: Signed-in users can select multiple hairstyles and generate a set of previews from the same photo, then weigh options in a before-and-after view.
No sign-up or app required: The first guest preview works without an account, and the whole editor runs in a browser on desktop or mobile.
Stylist-ready downloads: Unlocked previews can be downloaded and used to explain length, shape, and color preferences during a salon consultation.

Pricing & Fees

  • Pricing: Three plans are offered. Lite costs $4.50/month billed annually (200 credits, about 20 generations per month); Pro costs $7.50/month billed annually (3,000 credits, about 300 generations per month, priority processing, and VIP support); a one-time credit plan is also available. A single manual hairstyle generation costs 10 credits, and AI Styling Advisor analyses cost 60 or 100 credits.
  • Free tier: One free hairstyle preview is available with no sign-up, and creating an account adds 20 bonus credits.
  • Payment details: Payments run through Stripe with major credit, debit, and Apple Pay; purchases are final and non-refundable, and subscription credits reset each billing cycle while one-time credits never expire.
  • Important limitation: Previews are visual simulations for comparison, not predictions of an actual salon result; lighting, image quality, starting hair color, and AI variation all affect outcomes.

Who It's For

AI Hairstyle Changer is aimed at anyone weighing a haircut or color change, from a first-time pixie cut to a switch to platinum blonde or an unnatural shade. It suits people who want to experiment privately before booking an appointment, indecisive shoppers comparing bangs or bob lengths on their own face, and clients who want visual references to bring to a hairstylist consultation. It can also help stylists and salon staff discuss options with customers, and it appeals to anyone curious to see themselves bald or with a different silhouette without touching a pair of scissors.
