How it works

Upload your photo

Drop your portrait into EditThisPic. Best results come from front-facing or three-quarter angle photos with clear visibility of the current hairline and face. JPG, PNG, WebP up to 7MB.

Expect: Simple hair additions: 20-30 seconds. Complex hairstyle changes: may need 2-3 refinements for natural blending.
Describe the hair you want

Type exactly what hair you want: 'add long wavy auburn hair reaching past the shoulders' or 'add thick curly black hair with natural volume.' Include length, color, texture (straight, wavy, curly), and style. The AI generates hair that matches your face shape and the photo's lighting.

Tip: Mention lighting conditions: 'with highlights catching the sunlight from the left' for ultra-realistic results

Copy one of these to get started:

Add length to short hair add long flowing hair reaching past the shoulders with subtle waves and natural movement, matching the current hair color
Try This →

Add volume to thin hair add natural volume and thickness to the hair with fuller body and healthy shine, keeping the same length and style
Try This →

Complete hair color change add rich auburn red hair with the current hairstyle, with natural highlights and lowlights for dimension
Try This →

Add bangs add soft wispy bangs across the forehead, blending naturally into the existing hairstyle
Try This →

Restore receding hairline add natural hair to restore the hairline with realistic density and natural growth patterns matching the existing hair
Try This →
Generate and review

Check that the hair looks natural at the hairline, the color matches expected lighting, and the texture is consistent throughout. Look for realistic shadows where hair meets the face and shoulders.
Refine with markers if needed

If the hairline looks unnatural or hair appears in wrong places, tap markers on those specific areas and describe corrections. Great for blending edges or adjusting specific sections.

Tip: For hairline refinement, try 'blend the hair naturally into the forehead edge' in your follow-up prompt.

Detailed Guides by Scenario

📷

Home & Interior Design

Preview how hair would look in a room or space before committing to a purchase or renovation.

Common Scenarios

Visualizing hair in a living room, bedroom, or office before buying
Creating client mockups that show hair in their actual space
Comparing different placements of hair in renovation plans

Best Practices

Upload a well-lit, straight-on photo of the room for the most realistic result
Specify the size and position — e.g., 'add a large hair on the left wall'
Match the room's lighting in your prompt: 'warm lighting' for evening shots, 'natural daylight' for window-lit rooms

📷

Professional & Marketing Use

Incorporate hair into marketing materials, presentations, and product catalogs without expensive photo shoots.

Common Scenarios

Adding hair to product mockups and marketing banners
Creating presentation slides that show hair in context
Building a catalog of variations that feature hair in different settings

Best Practices

Use high-resolution source images — marketing materials demand sharp details
Keep brand guidelines in mind: specify colors and style that match when adding hair
Generate multiple versions and A/B test which placement performs best in ads

If something looks off

Hairline looks unnatural or too sharp

Why: The AI created a defined edge rather than natural hairline variation where hair meets skin.

Try: blend the hairline naturally with soft edges and baby hairs at the forehead

Try This →

Tip: Natural hairlines have gradual density changes - mention 'baby hairs' or 'soft edges' for realism

Hair color doesn't match the lighting

Why: The AI generated hair with different lighting conditions than the original photo.

Try: adjust the hair color to match the [warm/cool] lighting from the [direction] in the photo

Try This →

Tip: Note where light hits the face and mention that direction for consistent hair highlights

Hair looks pasted on or flat

Why: The hair lacks the depth, shadows, and natural movement expected in real photographs.

Try: add hair with natural volume, movement, and realistic shadows where it touches the face and shoulders

Try This →

Tip: Include 'movement' and 'natural flow' in your prompt for dimensional results

AI changed the wrong area or something I didn't want changed

Why: The AI couldn't determine exactly which area you meant from description alone. This happens with ambiguous requests.

Try: Tap a marker on the specific area you want to change, then regenerate with the same prompt

Try This →

Tip: Markers tell the AI 'I mean THIS one specifically.' Use them when description alone is ambiguous.

Hair texture is inconsistent

Why: The AI mixed different hair textures or the texture doesn't match throughout the hairstyle.

Try: make all hair have consistent [straight/wavy/curly] texture with uniform pattern throughout

Try This →

Tip: Be specific about texture type and consistency in your original prompt

Quick answers

Do I need to mark where the hair should go?

No! Just describe the hair you want: 'add long blonde wavy hair' or 'add volume to the existing hair.' The AI understands head shape, face proportions, and natural hair placement. Only use markers if you need to refine specific areas after the first result.

Can I keep my existing hair and just add to it?

Yes! Describe additions like 'add length while keeping my current style' or 'add volume and thickness to my existing hair.' The AI blends new hair with your existing hair for natural results. Works great for extensions visualization.

How realistic does the added hair look?

Very realistic when you include details. Mention texture, movement, highlights, and lighting. The AI generates individual hair strand patterns, natural shadows, and proper highlights that match your photo's lighting conditions.

Can I use this to preview hair colors before dyeing?

Absolutely. This is one of the most popular uses. Try prompts like 'change my hair to platinum blonde' or 'add rich burgundy color to my hair.' Much safer than experimenting with real dye.

Does it work with bald or very short hair?

Yes. The AI can add a complete head of hair to bald or buzzed photos. Be descriptive about the style you want, and expect it may take 2-3 tries to get the hairline and density looking completely natural.

Is EditThisPic's AI hair adder really free?

Yes — you get 1 free edit per week, no account needed. For unlimited edits, plans start at $3.99/month.

What photo formats does the AI hair adder support?

JPG, PNG, WebP, and HEIC. Upload any common photo format and EditThisPic handles the rest.

How long does it take to add hair?

Usually 15-30 seconds. Upload your photo, describe what you want, and the AI delivers the result.
