History
The answers before you start
What do I upload?
For a personal comparison, select Image to Image and add one sharp portrait with the full head, visible eyes and both shoulders. Text to Image creates a hairstyle concept without an uploaded portrait.
How do I start?
Upload the portrait, describe one short style and review the displayed settings and credits. Generate once, then open History and compare the haircut with your original.
Can I try it free?
Free use depends on the credits or offer currently available to your account. Sign in, check your balance and read the generator’s current quote before submitting. Choosing a style or editing your prompt does not start a generation.
How much does an image cost?
Use the credit amount shown beside the generate action for your selected model and settings. Recheck it after changing the image size, model or other options. Your current plan and available balance determine whether you can submit the job.
When will the image be ready?
After submission, follow the job in History. Timing varies with the selected model, image settings and current workload. Wait for the task status to finish rather than assuming a fixed delivery time or submitting the same job again.
An AI Short Hair Filter creates a portrait with a shorter haircut from a photo and a written direction. Use Image to Image to explore a bob, pixie or textured crop on your own portrait; choose a clear photo, describe the cut, check the credit quote and compare the finished image in History.

How to use an AI Short Hair Filter, step by step
Start with a simple length comparison. The sequence below moves from shoulder-length hair to a bob and then a pixie, so you can decide how much of the forehead, ears and neckline you want to reveal.
Choose your portrait
Select Image to Image and upload one photo you have permission to use. Keep the full head in frame, with a clear jawline and visible shoulders. A plain background makes changes around the hair easier to compare.
Describe a specific short cut
Name the length, fringe and texture. Start with “jaw-length blunt bob, no fringe, straight texture” or “short textured pixie with a soft side fringe.” Ask to retain the existing color while testing the shape.
Check settings and credits
Choose from the model and image options available in the generator. Read the current quote before submitting. Keep those settings steady while you compare two cuts.
Review the finished image
Open History when the job is ready. Compare the hair silhouette and face with the original. Save your preferred version, then change one detail for the next comparison.
Upload a photo that shows the hairline and face
- Use even light on both sides of the face; avoid strong filters and deep shadows.
- Include the top of the head, ears and shoulders. Do not crop exactly at the current hair ends.
- Move hats, sunglasses and large hair accessories out of the way when taking the photo.
- Reuse the same original for each haircut so the comparison is about the cut.
Three short-hair directions to compare
Bob: keep a clear length line
Ask for chin length or jaw length and say whether the ends should curve inward. Compare a blunt outline with soft layers before changing the fringe.
Taper: place the volume
Describe shorter sides and the amount of texture on top. For curls, specify the coil pattern and a natural hairline rather than asking for a generic short cut.
Pixie: define the fringe
Say how much forehead you want visible and whether the fringe should sweep to one side. Keep color unchanged so the new silhouette is easy to judge.
A short-hair prompt you can adapt
“Using this portrait, change only the hairstyle to a jaw-length bob with a clean outline and no fringe. Keep the same face, skin tone, dark brown hair color, clothing, pose and background. Show natural strands around the ears.”
For a second version, replace the haircut clause with “a short textured pixie with a soft side-swept fringe.” If both the color and cut change unexpectedly, repeat the original color and remove extra styling instructions.
Check the face, glasses and hair edges
- Compare eye shape, jawline and glasses with the original before choosing the haircut.
- Zoom in around the temples and ears. Watch for hair merging into frames or skin.
- Check the neckline and both sides of the cut for unintended differences.
- For a salon discussion, save two distinct options and note the length and fringe you liked. A stylist can assess your hair’s density, growth pattern and upkeep.

AI short hair filter questions
Can I make a short-hair concept without uploading?
Yes. Text to Image starts from your written description and does not need reference media. To compare a haircut on your own face, switch to Image to Image and add your portrait.
Can I keep my hair color while testing a pixie?
Ask for the existing color explicitly and change only the length and shape. Compare the result with the original, then try color separately if you want another direction.
Why did my face change along with the hair?
Return to a sharper, more evenly lit source photo. Ask to keep facial features, skin tone and pose, simplify the haircut description and review another result before continuing.
Can I preview short curly hair?
Describe the curl or coil texture and where the volume should sit. A rounded curly bob and a tapered cut are different shapes, so test them as separate prompts.
Does selecting a haircut submit a paid job?
Changing the prompt, mode or settings prepares the request. Review the displayed credit quote and use the generate action when you are ready.
Where do I find my earlier comparisons?
Open History to check the job status and revisit completed images. Compare each version with the same original and keep the wording used for your preferred cut.
Start with one photo and one short cut
Prepare a clear portrait, choose Image to Image and name the cut you want to compare. Check the quote before generating, then review the finished image in History.
