New Hairstyle

Talk yourself into or out of the big chop before the scissors come out. New Hairstyle takes one photo of you and renders a different cut, and a different color too if you want one, with realistic strands, volume and a natural hairline that match the lighting of the original picture. Face, features and expression stay the same, so what you see is you with new hair rather than a lookalike. Bring the result to your stylist as a reference, test a bold color for a costume or festival, refresh a dating-profile picture, or check whether bangs actually suit your face shape before you commit to six months of growing them out.

Two controls do the work. New hairstyle is a free-text field, so describe length, shape and texture: a chin-length blunt bob with bangs, long layered waves, a short textured crop with a fade, or a curly shag with curtain bangs. The more specific the description, the closer the cut. Hair color is a menu: "Keep Original Color" leaves your natural shade alone and is the right pick when only the cut is in question. Otherwise choose among "Black", "Dark Brown", "Light Brown", "Blonde", "Platinum", "Red", "Auburn", "Silver Gray", "Pastel Pink" and "Blue". Bold colors like platinum and pastel pink show most clearly on photos with even, bright light and little shadow.

When the new hair is on the canvas, you can keep styling. A typed instruction can shorten the fringe or add a side part without redoing the whole cut, Image Upscaler makes a crisp reference to show your stylist, and a short video lets you see the hair move. Pass it to Add Makeup or Outfit Swap to complete a whole new look, or to Face Cleanup for a final polish. It is a one-photo tool: 4 credits on Standard, 12 on Pro and 44 on Max.
