A 3D haircut simulator goes beyond a flat before-and-after. It renders a cut with depth—front, side, three-quarter—so you can see how the shape wraps around your head, not just how it looks face-on.

The power of a 3D haircut simulator is spatial truth. A bob that looks perfect from the front can fall flat from the side. Here's how to preview any cut in full dimension on the hairstyle try-on tool.

How to Use a 3D Haircut Simulator

  1. Upload a clean selfie to the hairstyle try-on page.
  2. Pick a cut to simulate.
  3. Generate the preview.
  4. Examine the front, side, and three-quarter views.
  5. Compare several cuts across angles.
  6. Save the one that reads well from every perspective.

Tips for Better 3D Previews

  • Use a straight-on, well-lit photo
  • Pull hair back to show your face shape
  • Generate at least five cuts to compare angles
  • Pay attention to the side profile
  • Test layered cuts—they benefit most from 3D
