How it works

Upload your photo

Drop your image into EditThisPic. JPG, PNG, WebP up to 7MB. Front-facing photos with hair clearly visible work best. Good lighting on hair helps the AI understand your current style.

Expect: Simple style changes: 30-40 seconds. Dramatic transformations like long to short: 45-60 seconds and may need refinements.
Describe the new hairstyle

Type what you want: 'change to a short layered bob' or 'give this person long flowing curls with volume.' Be specific about length, texture, and style. No marking needed—the AI knows what 'hair' and 'hairstyle' mean.

Tip: Include details like 'layered', 'side-parted', 'bangs', or 'slicked back' to get a precise style match.

Copy one of these to get started:

Classic bob cut change the hairstyle to a chin-length bob with a slight inward curl at the ends
Try This →

Long flowing curls give this person long wavy curls past the shoulders with natural volume and bounce
Try This →

Pixie cut change the hairstyle to a short textured pixie cut with side-swept bangs
Try This →

Sleek straight look make the hair sleek and straight, falling to mid-back with a center part
Try This →

3 more prompts

Braided style change the hairstyle to a single thick braid draped over one shoulder
Try This →

Updo bun put the hair in an elegant high bun with a few loose strands framing the face
Try This →

Curtain bangs add curtain bangs to this hairstyle, parted in the middle and feathered at the sides
Try This →
Review the transformation

Check that the new hairstyle looks natural around the face. Look for realistic hair flow, proper volume, and natural-looking hairline. Zoom in on ears, forehead, and neckline areas.
Refine with markers if needed

If specific areas like the hairline, bangs, or layers need adjustment, tap markers on those spots and regenerate. Most hairstyle changes work perfectly on the first try.

Tip: Markers are for precision refinement only. Try without them first—you usually won't need them.

"Was considering chopping my long hair into a bob. Uploaded a selfie and tried three different short styles before booking the appointment. Saved me from a bad decision." @HairDecisions_Sam

If something looks off

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 can happen when describing partial changes like 'just change the bangs.'

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

Try This →

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

New hairstyle doesn't match the face shape naturally

Why: The AI generated hair that doesn't follow the natural contours of the face, creating an unnatural or floating appearance.

Try: change the hairstyle to [your description], ensure the hair frames the face naturally and follows head shape

Try This →

Tip: Adding 'frames the face naturally' tells the AI to match hair to the specific face shape in the photo.

Hairline looks unrealistic or shifted

Why: Dramatic style changes can cause the AI to reposition the hairline, especially when going from long to very short styles.

Try: Tap markers on the hairline area and regenerate: keep the natural hairline position while changing the style

Try This →

Tip: The hairline is the most critical edge—marker refinement here makes the result look natural.

Hair texture doesn't look right for the style

Why: The AI may not match the expected texture for the style, like generating smooth hair when you wanted textured layers.

Try: change to [style] with [specific texture: textured layers, smooth silk, tight curls, messy waves]

Try This →

Tip: Always specify texture alongside style. 'Textured pixie' produces very different results from just 'pixie cut.'

Result looks like a wig placed on top

Why: The transition between the new hairstyle and the forehead or neck area isn't blending properly, creating an artificial look.

Try: change the hairstyle to [your description], blend naturally into the hairline and around the ears

Try This →

Tip: Mentioning 'blend into hairline' and 'around the ears' targets the two areas where wig-like artifacts appear.

Quick answers

Do I need to mark my hair before describing the style I want?

No! Just describe the hairstyle: 'change to a bob' or 'give me long curls.' The AI understands what 'hair' and 'hairstyle' mean and targets them automatically. Only use markers if you want to change a specific section, like just the bangs, and the AI isn't interpreting it correctly.

How do I try a new hairstyle on my photo for free?

Upload your photo to EditThisPic and type a style instruction like 'change to a short pixie cut.' The AI transforms the hairstyle in 30-45 seconds while keeping your face intact. Free to use, no account required, no watermarks on the result.

Yes, EditThisPic changes hairstyles for free with no account needed. Upload your photo, describe the style you want, and download the result. No watermarks. Works for bobs, pixie cuts, curls, braids, updos, and more.
