Do I need to mark the head before describing the replacement?
For single-person photos, no! Just describe the change. Head replacement is complex enough that clear targeting is essential for good results.
Is head replacement realistic enough for important photos?
It can be! Head replacement is the most complex edit type and typically requires 2-4 refinement passes for optimal results. Simple cases like turning a head slightly work better than dramatic changes. Plan for some back-and-forth refinement, especially for the neck blend area. Results are often good enough for professional use.
What's the difference between replace face and replace head?
Replace Face modifies features on the same person in the same position—like opening eyes or changing expression. Replace Head changes the entire head including pose and direction. Use face replacement for fixes like closed eyes. Use head replacement when someone is looking entirely the wrong direction.
Can I use a head from a different photo?
The current tool generates an appropriate head based on your description rather than importing from another photo. Describe what you want: 'forward-facing with natural smile' and the AI creates it. This often produces better blending than composite from separate photos.
Why does the neck always need refinement?
The neck is where the new head meets the existing body, making it the natural transition zone. Differences in skin tone, lighting, and the exact boundary all concentrate at this area. Expect to do at least one refinement pass focused specifically on the neck blend. This is normal for head replacement.
Is EditThisPic's AI head replacer really free?
Yes — every visitor gets one free edit per week with no account needed, so you can swap a head between two photos at no cost the first time. If you need more, the Lite plan is $4.99/month for 15 credits, Standard is $12.99/month for 50, and Pro is $29.99/month for 150. There are also one-time credit packs from $1.99.
Can I replace head on my phone?
Yes. EditThisPic runs entirely in your mobile browser — iPhone Safari, Android Chrome, and tablets all work. There's nothing to install. Just open editthispic.com, tap to upload a photo from your camera roll, type your prompt, and swap a head between two photos. The result downloads straight back to your photos. There's also an iOS app on the App Store.
What photo formats does the AI head replacer support?
EditThisPic accepts JPG, PNG, WebP, and HEIC files up to 7MB. HEIC support matters for iPhone users since that's the default capture format. The AI head replacer returns the result in the same format you uploaded, so an HEIC in stays an HEIC out — no conversion step or quality loss in transit.
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 20 edits with unused credits rolling over. All edits are full resolution with no watermark.
