AI Curly Hair Filter

What is an AI curly hair filter?

Short hair

Add curl to the existing length

Short curls begin at the crown and continue through the top hair. Keep the original dark color and compare the hairline.

Shoulder length

Compare spiral shape and volume

Copper spiral curls start near the roots. Review the new outline and apparent length beside the straight original.

Long hair

Follow the wave from roots to ends

Long brown hair gains a continuous wave pattern. Check the top of the head as well as the lower lengths.

One person

Identify the person in a group

Instructions can target one person. In this illustration, the man gains curls while his friend’s braids stay unchanged.

How to try curly hair on your photo

Upload your person photo

Use a clear portrait with the whole hair silhouette and hairline visible. Front or slight three-quarter views with even light are useful. Upload one JPEG, PNG or WebP up to 30 MB.

Choose a curl direction

Select one of eight image cards, upload a reference or describe curls in Edit instructions. Templates start unselected, can be removed and are alternatives to an uploaded reference. At least one active style, reference or written instruction is needed.

Generate and compare

Review the displayed credits, then Generate one image. Check roots, curl continuity, color, face and scene. Re-edit restores your inputs. Loading an example only fills the form and does not generate or spend credits.

What to check in a curly hair preview

Compare the full-size result with the same original photo. Review the roots and the whole hair outline before choosing a curl pattern.

Roots and continuity

Look for waves or curls near the part, crown and temples, continuing to the ends.

Original color

Compare the hair and root color under the original light. A reference supplies curl direction, not a new color.

Length and volume

Tighter curls can look shorter and fuller. Check that the result still relates to the original haircut.

Face and surroundings

Compare face shape, expression, skin texture, clothing and background.

Curly hair filter questions

What would I look like with curly hair?

Upload a clear portrait and compare curl patterns on the same original. Review the roots, outline and visible length together. The preview helps explore a look, but does not decide which style suits you or predict salon results.

Do I need to choose a curl template?

No. You can upload a curl reference or describe the pattern in Edit instructions. A person photo and at least one active template, reference or written instruction are required.

Are a template and uploaded reference used together?

Choose one reference source. The active image is supplied with your original and guides curl size, definition and relative volume. It does not supply the reference person’s identity, color or haircut length.

Will the roots change too?

Yes. The default instruction applies the chosen wave or curl from near the scalp through the crown, temples and ends. It preserves the hairline position and root color. Write an instruction if you want curls only in the lower lengths.

Will it change my hair color or face?

The edit is instructed to keep your original color, face and scene. Explicit color instructions can change the hair color; a differently colored reference alone does not request that change. Compare the result because generated details can drift.

Can I use short hair or a photo with several people?

Curl size is adapted to the available hair. For a group, identify one person in your instructions. Other people should stay unchanged. When no scalp hair is visible, the default request keeps the image unchanged instead of adding hair.

Is this a perm generator or an accurate salon prediction?

It can create a perm-style photo preview. Curls may look shorter or fuller, but the image does not measure your hair or predict how a real treatment will behave. Use it as a visual reference.

Is the curly hair filter free?

Generation requires a LumiYing account and uses the credits displayed before Generate. Selecting a template and loading an example do not spend credits. See pricing for current plans.
