How it works

Upload your photo

Drop your photo into EditThisPic. Top-down or angled photos that show the bald spot clearly give the best results. JPG, PNG, WebP up to 7MB.

Expect: Small bald spots: 20 seconds. Larger crown areas: may need 1-2 refinements for natural blending.
Describe the fix

Type the instruction: 'cover the bald spot at the crown with natural hair matching my existing color and texture.' Mention where the spot is (crown, top, temples) and that you want it to blend naturally.

Tip: Include 'matching my existing color and texture' so the new hair blends seamlessly instead of looking pasted on.

Copy one of these to get started:

Crown bald spot cover the bald spot at the crown with natural hair matching my existing color, texture, and density, seamless blend
Try This →

Top of head thinning fill in the thinning area on top of my head with natural hair density matching the surrounding hair
Try This →

Temple thinning fill in the thinning hair at the temples with natural density, blending into the surrounding hair
Try This →

Side bald spot cover the bald patch on the side of my head with natural hair matching the surrounding texture and color

Generate and review

Check that the new hair blends naturally with your existing hair, the color matches throughout, and there's no visible edge where the fill ends.
Refine with markers if needed

If part of the spot is still visible or the AI filled the wrong area, tap a marker on the spot and regenerate with a corrective prompt.

Tip: Markers are especially useful for bald spot work since the AI may not always find the exact area from description alone.

Match the rest of the photo's quality

If something looks off

Fill is obvious — looks pasted on

Why: The AI generated new hair without matching the color, texture, or density of surrounding hair.

Try:

Add 'seamless blend with exact color, texture, and density of surrounding hair, completely invisible edge' to your prompt

Try This →

Tip: Specify 'invisible edge' explicitly — it forces the AI to focus on transitions.

Color of new hair doesn't match

Why: The AI generated hair in a slightly different shade than your existing hair.

Try: Add 'exactly match my current hair color including any highlights, lowlights, and gray strands' to your prompt

Try This →

Tip: Mention specific elements like gray strands so the AI doesn't generate uniformly young hair.

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.

New hair density looks fake

Why: The AI generated maximum density instead of matching your natural hair amount.

Try: Add 'natural realistic density that matches my natural hair amount, not artificially thick' to your prompt

Try This →

Tip: Natural fill should match your overall hair density, not give you teenage-thick hair.

Result looks unrealistic for my age

Why: The AI may have generated younger-looking hair than your actual age.

Try: Add 'natural age-appropriate hair with realistic mature texture' to your prompt

Try This →

Tip: Age-appropriate language keeps the result believable.

Quick answers

Do I need to mark the bald spot before describing?

Not always — but for bald spots, markers can help. Try description first ('cover the bald spot at the crown'). If the AI fills the wrong area, tap a marker on the exact spot and regenerate.

How do I cover a bald spot in a photo for free?

Upload your photo to EditThisPic and type 'cover the bald spot at the crown with natural hair matching my color.' The AI fills it in with seamless blending in 20-30 seconds. Free, no account needed, no watermark.

Is there a free tool to fix bald spots in photos without signup?

EditThisPic blends new hair into thinning or bald areas naturally — matching your exact color, texture, and density. Type the fix you want and the AI applies it in seconds without preset filters or downloads.

Will it look obviously edited?

Not if you describe the fix carefully. Use phrases like 'matching my exact color and texture' and 'seamless natural blend.' Most results look completely natural at first glance, especially for small spots.

Yes. The tool is widely used for LinkedIn headshots, executive photos, and professional bios where users want a polished result without obvious editing. Add 'subtle natural fill' to your prompt for the most professional look.
