HairHunt vs Haristyle

HairHunt lets users preview hairstyles and hair colors on a photo before deciding on a change. Its listed styles cover women and men, including bobs, pixie cuts, braids, and fades. Color choices include ash blonde, black, burgundy, copper, gray, and platinum blonde, and users can upload a reference image. The free plan includes one hairstyle try-on, access to 100+ styles, and a watermark-free result. A Subscription costs $9.99 a month and includes 200 credits every month, with cancellation anytime. Pay as you go costs $19.99, paid once for 200 credits, premium features, and a watermark-free result. HairHunt Pro is a separate browser-based consultation tool for salons, with previews of cuts, colors, and updos; its advertised 30-day free trial is for the first 50 salons, and a Pro subscription covers all stylists on a salon team. HairHunt identifies itself as an iOS and Android app, while Pro runs in a browser. The maker says HairHunt was built by The Right Hairstyles, described as trusted since 2013.

Haristyle is an Android augmented reality app for previewing hairstyles before a haircut. It uses the camera to detect the user's head, then tracks it so a selected style moves with them as they turn or tilt. The catalogue contains more than 50 3D hairstyles, and users can explore colors such as dyes, highlights, lowlights, and ombre effects. A preview can be saved to the gallery and shown to a barber or friends. The app is freemium: its Free plan is free, and the Google Play listing says four premium styles can be tried at no cost. Suggested uses include choosing a haircut, testing colors, and planning a wedding or event look. Haristyle says face tracking and hair rendering happen locally, without uploading facial geometry or camera feed to its servers. It collects device information and anonymous usage analytics and says it does not sell personal data. Previews are simulations, so actual results may vary.
