HairApp: AI Hairstyle Try On

You upload a photo and then spend about three minutes carefully mapping key points on your face like your forehead, chin, and ears. Once the AI aligns properly, it can show realistic previews of how different hairstyles and colors would look on you, including how hair layers would fall.

Yes, the color tool is one of the best features. You can take any haircut from the library and apply a custom color using a simple color wheel, so you can experiment with everything from natural caramel highlights to bold silver without any commitment.

The initial previews can look comically bad, like a bob hovering in space, if you skip the face mapping step. To get shockingly realistic results, you must take the time to accurately mark your forehead, chin, and ears as the app prompts you.

The ads are relentless, often popping up after just two hairstyle try-ons. Unfortunately, there's no built-in way to remove them in the free version, but the app's useful try-on and color tools may still make the occasional ad interruption worth it for you.

Unlike basic apps where hair sits on your head like a bad wig, HairApp uses AI that can produce very realistic previews after you properly map your face. It also has a massive library of styles, including bold options like neon mullets, and a superior color tool that basic apps usually lack.
