Short and curly on the same person
One portrait restyled from the source length into a short cut, then a curly texture, with the same face, glasses, and shirt. Use this pair to check whether identity still reads after a length change.
Try a cut on your photo, not on your head
AI Hairstyle Changer
Upload one clear head photo, pick short, shoulder-length, long, or curly hair, keep the original color unless you choose a shade, then compare and download.
Face first, hair second
Every run asks the model to keep your face, hairline, clothes, and background. Original color stays put unless you pick a shade. This is a preview, not a salon forecast.

Hair try-on cases
Judge the Cut Against the Same Face
These illustrative, AI-generated examples show what each control does. They are not measured outputs or a performance benchmark for the production service. Actual results vary, so inspect your own result against its source before you keep it.
Shoulder-length hair with the face unchanged
A head-and-shoulders photo restyled to shoulder-length hair. Cheekbones, hairline, and the room behind the person stay where the camera put them.
Color preview that keeps the original light
The same portrait with an auburn hair-color preview. Highlights and shadows follow the original lighting instead of flattening into a wig overlay.
What changes and what stays
What the AI Hairstyle Changer Changes
A try-on is only useful when the person is still recognizable afterward. This tool changes hair length, texture, and optional color. It asks the model to leave who is in the picture, how they sit, and how the photo was framed alone.
Identity, hairline, and framing stay put
Every run carries the same locked instruction: keep face structure, age, race and gender presentation, expression, pose, clothing, hairline, and camera framing. The brief also says not to beautify anyone into a different person.
Four closed cuts, color optional
Short, shoulder-length, long, and curly are the only first-version looks. Original color is the default. Black, brown, blonde, and auburn are optional and must not run when you leave color on keep.
Honest limits
This is not a prediction of a real haircut, dye job, or grow-out. Hats, hijabs, and heavy occlusions are kept rather than restyled through. Group photos keep each visible person in place, but likeness is weaker for every extra face.
What This Tool Can and Cannot Promise
The AI hairstyle changer generates a new image from your photo plus a fixed, server-owned brief. It does not measure bone structure or tell you which cut suits your face. It does not promise that a salon can reproduce the result. When color is set to keep original, the brief forbids dyeing. Small details can still move, especially around baby hairs, partings, and ear edges.
Keep the original file. If a face, hairline, or pair of glasses drifted, discard the result and try a clearer, front-facing photo with the hairline visible. Hats and heavy bangs covering the face reduce accuracy. If you need a directed likeness for a real appointment, take the download to a stylist as a conversation starter, not as a specification.
Privacy, Storage, and Deletion
Upload only photos you have the right and consent to process. Signed-in hairstyle tasks and results can appear in My Creations so a task can be recovered after a temporary connection problem instead of being paid for twice.
The current storage backend has no automatic expiry for uploaded or generated image objects. Delete in My Creations calls the authenticated creation-delete endpoint and soft-deletes the task record from account history; it does not delete the underlying image object or provider copy. Review the Privacy Policy and contact support before uploading photos of children or other sensitive portraits.
Practical workflow
How to Try a Hairstyle on Your Photo
Start with the clearest front-facing head-and-shoulders photo you have. Even light, an unobstructed hairline, and the face at least a few hundred pixels wide give the identity lock the most to work with.
- 01
Upload one supported photo
Choose a JPG, PNG, or WebP file up to 5 MB, with each side from 256 to 4,096 pixels and no more than 16 megapixels. The workbench reads the dimensions locally before anything is uploaded.
- 02
Pick a cut and leave color on keep, or choose a shade
Shoulder-length is the default cut. Short, long, and curly are the other closed looks. Original color stays selected unless you pick black, brown, blonde, or auburn. Both choices change the instructions the server sends.
- 03
Run one tracked try-on
Sign in, confirm the fixed cost of 20 credits, and start one tracked job. The result is a 1K image at the same aspect ratio as your photo. Controls lock while the job runs so the request and the result always describe the same look.
- 04
Compare, then download
Drag the split view across the face, hairline, ears, and any glasses in the frame. Download only when the person still agrees with the source. Retry the original task from the workbench if a connection drop pauses status checks.

Tool specifications
A Focused Hair Try-On Path
The workbench accepts one JPG, PNG, or WebP image up to 5 MB. Each side must be between 256 and 4,096 pixels, and the image must stay within 16 megapixels. One run costs 20 credits and returns a 1K result at an automatic aspect ratio. Higher output sizes are not offered on this page because the automatic aspect ratio is only available at 1K.
Processing infers hair that the camera never recorded, so the result is an interpretation rather than a salon plan. By using the tool, you confirm that your upload complies with the Terms of Service. Reviewed by the Banana Pro AI product team · Last reviewed: 2026-09-12.

Questions
AI Hairstyle Changer FAQ
Clear answers about cuts, original color, hats, group photos, and credit use.
Will the result still look like me?
That is the goal of the locked brief, which asks the model to keep face structure, age, race and gender presentation, pose, hairline, and clothing. It is not a guarantee. Clear, well-lit, front-facing photos hold identity best. Compare the result with the split view before you use it.
Does keep original color actually keep my color?
Yes. The default color choice is keep, and the server brief then forbids dyeing, bleaching, or shifting hue. Choose black, brown, blonde, or auburn only when you want a color preview. The workbench cannot silently dye a keep run.
Can I show this to my stylist?
You can download the result and take it to an appointment as a visual reference. It is not a cutting guide, grow-out plan, or dye formula. Real hair density, cowlicks, and chemical history still decide what a salon can do.
What photos should I avoid?
Hats, helmets, hijabs, heavy face cover, group shots, and tiny or blurred faces all weaken the try-on. The brief keeps coverings in place instead of restyling through them. Upload one person, facing the camera, with the hairline visible.
How much does one try-on cost?
One run uses 20 credits and returns a single 1K image. The workbench shows the cost and your remaining balance before submission, and the task system avoids paying twice when a connection is interrupted.

Use the narrowest tool that fits. An avatar when you want a stylized profile picture, a headshot when the goal is a professional portrait, or the image editor when the change is not about hair.
