Virtual Haircuts Online - for Men and Women

Q. What TYPES OF HAIRCUTS does the Previewer offer?
A. Practically every kind, from conservative to wild, from red carpet to punk! Both Women and Men can select any combination of short, medium or long lengths, in straight, curly or wavy textures. Women can also choose Formal, Casual or both, as well as Updo or Semi-Updo. Venture to the edge with "Alt" styles (a huge section of Scene, Goth, Emo and more)! There's plenty of celebrity haircuts in every category (all your favorites like Rihanna, Selena Gomez, David Beckham, Lady GaGa, Jennifer Aniston, Miley Cyrus and many others). With 4000+ designs and dozens of colors, the combinations are endless!   Create your new look  

Q. Can I set an AUTOMATIC HAIR COLOR for every style to appear in as I try them on?
A. Easily! Click the "Hair Color" icon on the left control panel to access the color chart (see images at left) and use the time-saving "default" feature (you can have those Scene styles come up purple as soon as you click them). You can also switch colors on the fly or revert back to non-default -- and even change highlight colors with the Highlights Chooser (see right).

Q. Is it possible to SAVE a finished image to retrieve later?
A. Just select "Save to Favs" on the lower right panel. Favorites can be viewed (click the icon on the left panel), added or deleted in seconds, and you can print or share your images as well.

Q. What type PICTURE OF MYSELF should I use, and how do I upload my photo to my private gallery?
A. Use a head-and-shoulders picture, looking directly at the camera, with your hair pulled back from your face, and ears exposed -- this way you can try on any type of haircut! Make sure your snapshot is clear, focused and well-lit. A plain white background is best. To upload: Log onto your account and click the "Add Photo" icon in the left panel (jpg format, at least 200 x 250 pixels, and less than 1 Mb). The Haircut Previewer includes a photo editor to touch up your picture; the adjustment controls at the bottom lets you fine-tune the positioning whenever needed.

Q. Under "Extras," how do I get the LIPSTICK & Lip Gloss Simulator to match the shape of my lips?
A. Choose "Edit Photo" on the left panel; click through till you reach the lipstick tracer screen (see left).

Q. Can I upload MORE THAN ONE VERSION of my photo?
A. Yes! As a member you can upload as many snapshots of yourself as you like, and switch back and forth (i.e., with or without glasses and earrings, different facial expressions, etc.)

Q. I'm a guy. How do I see haircuts for MEN?
A. Click "Change Models," pick "Male," or upload your own picture. Then click the "Hairstyles" icon, choose "Men's Hairstyles," then click "Continue," and pick the textures and lengths you want, click "Show Results" (or use the "Try On" icon in the hairstyles information area, outside the Previewer).

Q. Will MORE haircuts be added?
A. Great new styles of all types are added on a regular basis!

Q. What HAIR COLORS in particular does the Previewer offer?
A. The Previewer's Hair Color Chart offers dozens of popular hues that wear many names: Blond/Blonde (Platinum, Sandy, etc.), Black/Brunette, Brown (Caramel, Bronze, Chestnut, Mocha, Hazelnut, etc.), Red (Burgundy, Ginger, Ruby, etc.), Gray/Grey, Violet/Purple, Auburn, Ash, Autumn, Copper, Gold/Golden, or White -- in tones ranging from Dark to Medium to Light!

Q. Where do I choose MODELS until I upload my own photo?
A. On the left panel, click "Change Model" and select female or male (see images at right). And when you upload, remember that you can add multiple snapshots of yourself!

Q. Can the Previewer AUTOMATICALLY find the best haircuts -- and hair colors -- for my FACE?
A. Certainly! Access Wizard mode by clicking "Hair Consultations" -- and in moments, try haircuts & colors based on your face shape, skin tone, eye color, desired length and other specifics you enter (wear glasses?). For guys, too! There's also options for updo and formal -- the Wizard even matches styles to the formal dress you'll be wearing  (spaghetti straps? lace? asymmetrical?...). The Previewer can alter the suggestions any way you like!

Q. What if I have more QUESTIONS or need HELP?
A. For help anytime, click the blue "Help" button in the left panel -- there's also a customer service department ready to assist you. Most styles also include styling steps for home perms. You'll find that the Virtual Haircut Previewer is a cinch to use -- have a ball and get in touch with your inner punk rocker (or chief executive)!
