Hairstyle, beard and mustache try-on for your photo

No. The tool draws the pieces over your photograph from the geometry of your face: 68 landmark points define a coordinate system, and hair grows and props are placed inside it. Nothing is generated, so the result is predictable and repeatable — the same settings always produce the same picture.

A front-facing shot, or a slight turn, where the face is at least about a seventh of the frame across. Head tilt is fine — it is measured and used. Clothing needs a shot down to the shoulders: if the photo is cropped at the chin, the collar simply falls outside it.

The color is read from your eyebrows — the one patch of hair that is always visible and always located. If the brows are pale, sparse or blown out, the automatic pick declines to guess and falls back to the palette. Choose the shade by hand: fourteen options are there, including gray and colors.

Yes. Drag a piece on the picture to move it; the Size and Tilt sliders change the category you are on; the arrow keys nudge it one step at a time. “Refit” puts it back where the measurements said it should go.

That is expected: the tool adds a hairstyle over the photo rather than erasing what is already on your head. Voluminous options — afro, curls, long hair, mohawk — therefore read better than short ones. Removing your existing hair is outside what this tool does.

Reading the picture and all of the drawing are done by the page’s own code in your browser, through WebAssembly and Canvas. The downloadable file is assembled there too, at the resolution of the original.
