HairHunt vs Snipd

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.

Snipd lets users preview hairstyles and hair colors on their own photos before visiting a stylist. A selfie-based try-on shows possible looks, and a photo-match feature lets users bring a hairstyle reference image to explore that style on themselves; some features require Premium. For ideas without a photo or sign-up, the website offers a free quiz: five questions produce three hairstyle ideas. Snipd says its suggestions span straight, wavy, curly, and coily hair, along with braids and locs. The app is presented as a way to explore a look and share a preferred preview with a stylist. The previews are inspiration, and a real cut or color may look different. Snipd is listed for iOS and web, while its site says the iPhone app requires iOS 17 or later. The Free plan is free. Premium costs $29.99, paid once, billed 3 months, or $69.99 a year, billed Yearly. App Store subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before renewal.
