What is an AI hair color try-on?

You upload a selfie, pick a shade, and see a before/after on your own face. BeforeChop helps you judge vibe and undertone fit before you dye or book — not a guarantee of salon chemistry results.

Can I try hair color before dyeing or bleaching?

Yes — that’s the point. Preview honey, chestnut, copper, platinum, and other live shades on your photo first. Real bleach and toner still need a stylist; the try-on helps you decide whether you even want that look.

Is BeforeChop’s color try-on free?

The sample portrait is free anytime. Real selfie try-ons use pack credits. Starter pack $9.9 · 10 looks. Join the waitlist to get notified at launch.

Will the preview match my skin tone?

The tool keeps your face and maps color onto the hair region. Lighting, angle, and your current hair color affect realism — use a clear, front-facing selfie for the fairest read.

Can I try color and a haircut on the same selfie?

Yes. Pick a cut (bob, lob, bangs, pixie, waves, and more), then change color — or stay color-only if you like your current cut.

Is platinum try-on the same as bleaching?

No. A platinum preview shows the look. Bleaching lifts pigment chemically and needs maintenance. Use the try-on to decide if you love the vibe before you commit to damage and upkeep.

Does BeforeChop upload my photo?

Demo mode keeps your selfie in the browser. AI try-on sends the photo to our processing provider to generate the preview. See our privacy policy for details — we don’t sell your photos.

Why preview first

Color regret is expensive — and hard to undo

Bleach lifts, toner fades, and box dye can miss your undertone. A screenshot of an influencer’s honey blonde isn’t your hairline, density, or skin.

Preview the vibe on your face first. Then book — or skip — with clearer language for your colorist.

Try deep shades on my selfie

Copper & reds

High-lift / platinum path
