AI Hair Color Try-On

Upload your photo, choose from 17 colors and see how you'd look. Photorealistic result in seconds, free and no sign-up.

Your photo is processed in real time and is not stored on our servers.

This online hair color try-on uses generative AI to show you how a new color would look on you. Unlike apps that overlay an AR filter on your photo, our simulator generates a completely new, photorealistic image — as if you'd actually had the change done at a salon.

Choose from 17 professional colors — from platinum blonde to blue black, including coppers, reds and fantasy shades. The AI analyzes your photo and applies the color while preserving your hair's texture, volume and style. The result is a visual reference you can share with your colorist.

Beyond the simulation, we explain what you'd need to achieve that change: whether it's a simple process or requires multiple sessions with a professional. No other hair color try-on tool offers this guidance. We don't sell hair dye — we help you make an informed decision with any brand.

Everything about the AI hair color try-on

It depends on your skin undertone, eye color and style. The quickest way is to try colors virtually: upload your photo to the simulator, pick a color and see the result in seconds. You can also take our color analysis quiz to discover your color season.
Yes. This simulator uses generative AI to create a photorealistic image of how you'd look with a new color. It's not a filter: the AI generates a new image that respects your hair's texture, volume and style. You can try 17 different colors for free.
There are several options: Garnier and L'Oreal use AR filters (color overlay), YouCam and FaceApp use basic filters. Blendsor uses generative AI (Gemini), which creates a completely new image rather than applying a filter. Plus, it explains what you need to achieve the change — something no other tool offers.
They provide a visual approximation, not a guarantee. Accuracy depends on hair condition, chemical history and the colorist's technique. AI generative simulators (like this one) are more realistic than AR filters, especially for techniques like balayage or highlights. Use it as a reference for your colorist, not as an exact result.
It depends on the difference. 1-2 level change: 1 session. 3 levels: 1-2 sessions. 4+ levels (e.g., dark brown to blonde): 2-4 sessions with pre-lightening. The simulator shows you the difficulty level for each change.
Generally no. Going from dark brown (level 3-4) to blonde (level 8-9) requires gradual lightening over 2-4 sessions to avoid damage. Doing it in one session risks breakage and unwanted orange tones. Always work with a professional.
AR filters (used by Garnier, L'Oreal) overlay color onto your photo's pixels — like an Instagram filter. Generative AI (used by Blendsor) creates a completely new image where the color integrates naturally with your hair's texture and highlights. The result is significantly more realistic.
No. Your photo is processed in real time and discarded immediately. We do not store user images on our servers. Your privacy is complete.
Yes. The AI respects your natural hair texture (straight, wavy, curly). With gray hair, the simulator shows the result assuming full coverage. Keep in mind that actual gray coverage depends on the dye type and technique used.
After generating the simulation, use the "Share with your colorist" button to send or download the image. Your colorist can use this visual reference along with Blendsor to calculate the exact professional formula.

Guide: how to choose the right hair color

How to know what hair color suits you

The most flattering hair color depends on three factors: skin undertone (warm, cool or neutral), eye color and lifestyle. People with warm undertones tend to suit golden blondes, coppers and caramel browns. Cool undertones pair better with ash blondes, cool browns and fantasy shades like violet. If you're unsure of your undertone, try our color analysis quiz before simulating.

AI generative vs AR filter — what's the difference?

Most hair color try-on tools use AR (augmented reality) filters: they overlay a flat color onto your photo's pixels. The result looks like an Instagram filter. Our simulator uses generative AI (Gemini): it creates a completely new image where the color blends naturally with your hair's texture, volume and highlights. That's why the result is more realistic, especially for techniques like balayage, highlights or ombre.

Things to consider before changing your hair color

A simulator shows you the destination, not the journey. Before heading to the salon, consider: your current color level (from 1 black to 10 lightest blonde), whether your hair has been chemically treated, and how much maintenance you're willing to commit to. Changes of more than 3 levels generally require pre-lightening and multiple sessions. Our simulator indicates the difficulty level of each change so you know what to expect.

How much does it cost to dye your hair at a salon?

Prices vary by service: a full color typically costs $80-150 USD, while balayage or full highlights range from $150-350 USD. Dramatic changes (dark to blonde) can exceed $500 USD as they require multiple sessions. Use our salon pricing calculator for a personalized estimate.
