Haristyle vs Perfect Corp. Virtual Try-On

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.

Perfect Corp. Virtual Try-On lets businesses offer virtual previews of clothes, shoes, jewelry, eyewear, makeup, and hair. For clothes, shoppers can change outfits in a photo with one click, with support for different body shapes and for tops, bottoms, or full looks. Shoe try-on uses 3D viewers and augmented reality with motion simulation; jewelry adds motion simulation, a virtual sizer, and generated depth, shadow, and reflections. Eyewear tools measure pupillary distance and let shoppers adjust frames, lenses, and tints in a browser. Makeup try-on includes products such as lipstick, liner, and eyeshadow. Businesses can connect the experience to websites, mobile apps, e-commerce, social campaigns, or physical retail through a mobile SDK, web module, or API. The Online Service is browser-only; Enterprise supports more channels, including mobile apps and in-store use. Try-on photos are saved on customers’ devices rather than Perfect Corp.’s servers. Pricing starts at $24/mo, with a free trial but no free plan.
