Wondering how a new hairstyle might look on you? Start with your own photo in Hairspell and explore a different look before your next salon visit. Browse 203 women's and men's hairstyles, including 80 new age, era and country-themed looks. Use the theme filter to find a style and create an AI preview. Compare your original photo with the result to explore the change. Save your favorite image or share an image or link to ask friends for their thoughts. Saved and shared images include Hairspell branding. The examples shown in the app are generated in advance and clearly labeled as examples. Creating a preview with your own photo requires passes, available through in-app purchase or eligible friend invitations. A hairstyle change or color-only edit costs 1 pass; adding hair dye to a hairstyle change costs 2 passes in total. Choose from 30 hair colors. Color-only editing changes the hair color in your uploaded photo while preserving your existing haircut and length. Male and female buzz cuts and shaved heads are also available. All charged passes are returned if generation fails. When a newcomer applies an invitation link or code during their first sign-up and both the inviter and newcomer complete phone verification, each receives one pass. Phone verification supports numbers from 40 supported countries. Complete 10 rewarded-ad check-ins to earn a discount coupon toward a 10-pass purchase. Check-ins are available at 20-minute intervals. The coupon discounts a purchase; it is not a free pass bundle. Discounts and prices vary by App Store country or region. Check the final price before buying. Before your photo is sent to OpenAI for image generation, Hairspell asks for your explicit consent. Generated photos stored on the server are deleted after 24 hours. Share links expire after 30 days, or you can revoke them sooner. AI previews are for inspiration. They do not guarantee a real haircut or salon result. Use your preview to explore ideas and discuss the look you want with your stylist.
