See how your dog will look - before the scissors come out. Upload one photo. Pick breed and coat type. Choose from twelve grooming styles, from the Teddy Bear Cut to the Lion Cut. PawStyle creates four preview variants and shows each one against the original with a before/after slider. Every preview comes with a groomer note: cutting lengths in millimetres, what to watch out for, and how much upkeep the style needs. Share it with your groomer so you both mean the same thing. WHAT YOU GET - Twelve grooming styles, filtered to what works with your dog's coat - Four variants per preview, each with a before/after slider - A groomer note per style: lengths, technique notes, maintenance - Styles that do not suit the coat are shown greyed out, with the reason - Fully in English and German HONEST ABOUT WHAT THIS IS Every result is an AI visualisation and is marked as one. It is a starting point for the conversation with your groomer, not a promise of the exact outcome. Coat condition, breed and the groomer's hand all change the result. PRICING Your first preview is free. After that you buy credit packs: a one-time purchase, no subscription, nothing renews, and credits never expire. One credit is one preview with four images. PRIVACY No account, no login. Photos are deleted 24 hours after upload. You can withdraw your consent and delete your data at any time in Settings.
