How it works

  1. Upload your photo

    Upload a portrait or selfie where your hair is clearly visible. Good lighting helps the AI accurately identify your hair. Front-facing or 3/4 angle works best. JPG, PNG, or WebP up to 7MB.

    Expect: Clear photos with distinct hair-skin separation take 15 seconds. Wet hair or very dark low-contrast photos may need a second try.
  2. Describe the color you want

    Just type the color you want to try: 'change my hair to platinum blonde' or 'give me deep burgundy red hair.' You can be as specific as you like — 'warm honey blonde with caramel highlights,' 'jet black,' 'pastel pink at the tips.' The AI reads natural descriptions.

    Tip: For realistic results add 'keep natural hair texture and shine' to your prompt — it prevents the hair from looking flat or painted.

    Copy one of these to get started:

    Go platinum blonde change my hair color to platinum blonde — keep natural hair texture and shine, no other changes
    Rich auburn red change my hair to a deep auburn red — warm tones, natural-looking, preserve hair texture
    Highlights and dimension add caramel blonde highlights to my brown hair — natural balayage look, not all one color
    Bold fantasy color change my hair to deep violet purple — vibrant, saturated color, keep natural hair texture
    2 more prompts
    Pastel soft tones change my hair color to pastel rose pink — soft and muted, not neon, natural-looking finish
    Go darker / brunette change my hair to rich dark chocolate brown — deep, warm brown with subtle natural shine
  3. Preview and download

    Click Generate. Your hair color preview appears in 15 seconds. Download the image to compare colors side by side before your salon appointment.

Detailed Guides by Scenario

📷

Before Your Salon Appointment

Committing to a drastic hair color change is nerve-wracking when you can't visualize the result. Preview your options first — try three colors before your appointment and bring the one you love.

Common Scenarios

  • Considering going platinum blonde from dark brown and wondering if it suits you
  • Debating between auburn red and deep burgundy for a fall color change
  • Curious how highlights versus all-over color would look on your current base

Best Practices

  • Use a recent photo that shows your actual current hair color — not an old one
  • Try multiple shades in the same session (each is one credit) to compare side by side
  • Show the AI previews to your stylist — it communicates what you want faster than verbal descriptions
📷

Fantasy & Creative Colors

Pastel pink, neon blue, silver gray, deep violet — fantasy colors look stunning in a photo preview and help you decide whether to commit before bleaching.

Common Scenarios

  • Considering going full silver-gray and wanting to see how it ages your look (or doesn't)
  • Planning a rose gold or copper color for summer and want to preview the exact shade
  • Cosplay or event styling where you want to match a character's exact hair color

Best Practices

  • Fantasy colors work best described with intensity: 'soft pastel pink' vs 'vivid neon pink'
  • For silver or gray, specify 'cool steel gray' vs 'warm silver' to get the right tone
  • Use a photo with good lighting — fantasy colors look more realistic in well-lit portraits
📷

Subtle Enhancements & Highlights

Not every change needs to be dramatic. Brighten existing color, add dimension with highlights, or warm up a flat tone — all achievable with a targeted prompt.

Common Scenarios

  • Wanting to brighten existing dark blonde hair with some lighter highlights
  • Natural redhead considering enriching the color with deeper copper tones
  • Going from box-dyed flat brown to a more dimensional brunette with warm tones

Best Practices

  • For subtle changes, describe the *difference* rather than the final color: 'brighten my current color by 2 shades'
  • Mention where the highlights should fall: 'concentrate highlights around the face and on top'
  • Compare the before and after at full zoom to check if subtle changes read as real

If something looks off

AI changed the wrong area or modified my eyebrows or skin

Why: The AI interpreted 'change hair' broadly when the hair blended with other areas, like dark eyebrows or a dark background.

Try: Place a marker directly on your hair and type: 'change only the hair to [color] — do not touch eyebrows, skin, or background'

Tip: Markers tell the AI exactly which pixels are the target. Use one when your hair color is similar to other elements in the photo.

Hair looks flat or painted-on

Why: Without texture instructions, the AI may produce a solid-looking color rather than natural-looking dyed hair.

Try: Add 'preserve natural hair texture, realistic shine, individual strand detail' to your prompt

Tip: The more specific you are about texture, the more photorealistic the result.

Color looks too dark or too light

Why: Color names like 'blonde' have a wide range. The AI picks a midpoint that may not match what you pictured.

Try: Be specific: 'warm golden blonde' vs 'ash platinum blonde' vs 'dirty dark blonde' — describe the specific shade

Tip: Compare to a celebrity or reference color name: 'Jennifer Aniston honey blonde' communicates far more than just 'blonde.'

Color didn't change at roots or hairline

Why: Very dark or tightly compressed photos can cause the AI to miss hair edges near the scalp.

Try: Try 'change all hair including roots and hairline to [color]' with explicit root coverage mention

Tip: Photos with clear scalp-hair contrast at the hairline produce cleaner full-coverage color changes.

Quick answers

Is the AI hair color changer really free?

Yes. EditThisPic gives you one free Fast edit per week with no account and no watermark on the output. That's enough to preview one hair color. If you want to try multiple colors in one session, the Lite plan is $4.99/month or buy a 3-edit pack for $1.99.

How realistic does the color change look?

Very realistic for natural colors like blonde, brunette, black, and red when you include texture instructions in your prompt ('keep natural hair texture and shine'). Fantasy colors like purple, blue, and pink also look great. The output is a photo-realistic preview, not a cartoonish filter.

Can I try hair color before actually dyeing it?

That's exactly what this is built for. Upload a current photo, describe the color you're considering, and see a realistic preview before committing to a permanent dye job. Many people run 3-4 color variations in one session to compare before deciding.

How is this different from Evoto AI or OpenArt?

Evoto AI is a professional photography tool that requires importing photos through desktop software. OpenArt is a generative image platform that creates new images rather than editing yours. EditThisPic works directly on your actual photo in any browser, takes 15 seconds, and requires no download or account.

Does it work for all hair types?

Yes — straight, wavy, curly, coily, short, long, textured. Curlier hair may need an explicit 'preserve curl pattern and texture' instruction in the prompt to prevent the AI from straightening as it recolors.

Can I add highlights or ombre instead of all-over color?

Yes. Describe the technique: 'add caramel balayage highlights through the mid-lengths and ends' or 'ombre effect from dark roots to blonde tips.' The AI understands common coloring techniques and can approximate them.

Will my original photo be saved?

Your original is always preserved. EditThisPic edits a copy — you keep the original and can download the edited version separately. Create a free account to save your edit history across sessions.

Can I do this on my phone?

Yes. Works in Safari on iPhone, Chrome on Android, and any modern mobile browser. Upload directly from your camera roll, get the result in 15 seconds, and save back to Photos.

How much does EditThisPic cost?

You get 1 free edit per week — no account needed. After that, credit packs start at $1.99 for 3 edits. Monthly plans start at $4.99/mo for 15 edits with unused credits rolling over. All edits are full resolution with no watermark.
