Online Virtual Hairstyle Generator for Men & Women

Q. What TYPES OF HAIRSTYLES does the Generator offer?
A. Practically every kind, from conservative to wild, from red carpet to punk! Both Women and Men can select any combination of long, medium or short lengths, in straight, curly or wavy textures. Women can also choose Formal or Casual, and Updo versions. Venture to the edge with "Alt" styles (a huge section of emo, scene, goth and more)! There's plenty of celebrity hairstyles in every category (all your favorites like Rihanna, Kim Kardashian, Zac Efron, Justin Bieber, Jennifer Aniston, Miley Cyrus, David Beckham and many others). With 4000+ designs and dozens of colors, the combinations are endless!   Create your new look  

Q. Can I set a DEFAULT HAIR COLOR for every style to appear in as I try them on?
A. Yes, plus the Catalog itself! Click the "Hair Color" icon on the left control panel to bring up the Color Chart (see images at left) and use this time-saving feature, which will also display the entire Catalog Gallery in your selected hue on a model of your choice (you can view pages of Emo styles in luscious purple). Revert back with the "original color" tab -- and even change HIGHLIGHT COLORS with the Highlights Chooser (see right).

Q. Is it possible to SAVE a finished image for retrieval later?
A. Just select "Save to Favs" in the lower left panel. Favorites can be viewed (click the icon on the left panel), added or deleted in seconds, and you can print or share your images as well.

Q. What type PICTURE OF MYSELF should I use, and how do I upload my photo to my private gallery?
A. Use a head-and-shoulders picture, looking directly at the camera, with your hair tied back from your face, and ears uncovered -- this way you can try on any type of hairstyle! Make sure your snapshot is clear, focused and well-lit. A plain white background is best. To upload: Log onto your account and click the "Add Photo" icon in the left panel (jpg format, at least 200 x 250 pixels, and less than 1 Mb). The Hairstyle Generator includes a photo editor to touch up your picture; the adjustment controls at the bottom lets you fine-tune the positioning when needed.

Q. Under "Makeup," how do I get the LIPSTICK and EYE MAKEUP to fit perfectly on my picture?
A. Select the "Align" tab in the Makeup panel and use the tracing tools (see image at left). Tracing is not needed for the Foundation and Blush.

Q. Can I upload MORE THAN ONE VERSION of my photo?
A. Yes! As a member you can upload as many snapshots of yourself as you like, and switch back and forth (i.e., with or without earrings and glasses, different facial expressions, etc.)

Q. I'm a guy. How do I see styles for MEN?
A. Click "Change Models," pick "Male," or upload your own picture. Then click the "Hairstyles" icon, choose "Men's Hairstyles," then click "Continue," and pick the lengths and textures you want, click "Show Results" (or use the "Try On" icon in the hairstyles information area, outside the Generator).

Q. Will MORE hairstyles be added?
A. Great new styles of all types are added all the time!

Q. What HAIR COLORS in particular does the Generator offer?
A. The Generator's Hair Color Chart offers dozens of popular hues that wear many names: Brown (Caramel, Bronze, Chestnut, Mocha, Hazelnut, etc.), Blond/Blonde (Platinum, Sandy, etc.), Black/Brunette, Red (Burgundy, Ginger, Ruby, etc.), Gray/Grey, Violet/Purple, Auburn, Ash, Autumn, Copper, Gold/Golden, or White -- in tones ranging from Light to Medium to Dark!

Q. Where do I choose MODELS until I upload my own photo?
A. In the left panel, click "Change Model" and select female or male (see images at right). And when you upload, remember that you can add multiple versions of yourself!

Q. What if I have more QUESTIONS or need HELP?
A. Just click the blue "Help" button in the left panel -- there's also a customer service department ready to assist you (most styles also include styling steps for home perms). You'll find that the Hairstyle Generator is a snap to use -- have a ball and get in touch with your inner punk rocker (or corporate president)!
