Your texture stays yours

Most AI hairstyle tools straighten coils. These looks are written for curly and coily hair, and "Keep my natural texture" is on by default when we detect curls, so a new cut keeps your pattern unless you choose a look that changes it, such as a silk press.

Skin tone checks

Every photo is compared with your original before you see it. If the skin on your face came out lighter, darker or warmer than a set limit, we correct the exposure or remake that photo; if it still fails we discard it, and if fewer than three of four photos pass, the fitting is refunded. In our own testing, darker skin tones were the most likely to come back too light, which is why this check runs on every photo.

Photo tips

Use a front-facing selfie in even light with your hair visible and nothing on your head. Strong light behind you or a side profile can throw off the hair and skin in the result, so the fitting room warns you before you spend a fitting.

Questions

Is there a hairstyle app that works for Black hair?

Yes. The Haircut Edit has a separate set of looks for curly and coily hair, keeps your natural pattern by default, and checks every result's skin tone against your photo before showing it.

Will it straighten my curls?

Not unless you choose a look that straightens, such as a silk press. With Keep my natural texture on, the cut and length change and your curl pattern stays.

Will it change my skin tone?

It shouldn't, and we check. Each result is compared with your photo; if the skin came out lighter or darker than a set limit we correct or remake it, or discard it before you see it.

What does it cost?

Packs start at $4.99 for 8 fittings of four photos each. Credits never expire and there is no subscription.
