HairHunt

HairHunt is an AI hairstyle preview app for people weighing a cut or color change, with styles for women and men. It is best for trying a look on a photo before a salon appointment; its one free try-on makes it easy to start, but repeated previews require paid credits.

Overview

HairHunt applies hairstyle and color previews to a photo, with reference image upload and batch generation among its capabilities. Its style range includes bobs, pixie cuts, braids and fades, while color choices include ash blonde, black, burgundy, copper, gray and platinum blonde. The free result is watermark-free, a useful detail if you want to share a preview before deciding.

HairHunt Pro is a separate browser-based consultation tool for salons, covering cuts, colors and updos. Its subscription includes all stylists on a salon team, so it is aimed at a salon rather than individual consumers. HairHunt says it was built by The Right Hairstyles, which describes itself as trusted since 2013; its contact page welcomes support and feedback inquiries.

Key features

• Photo try-ons: Preview haircuts and colors on a photo, which can help narrow options before making a real change.
• Broad style and color selection: The 100+ styles include options for women and men, with examples from bobs to fades; the listed colors range from black and gray to copper and platinum blonde.
• Reference uploads and batch generation: Both are supported, useful for working from an inspiration image or producing multiple previews.
• Salon consultations: HairHunt Pro brings previews of cuts, colors and updos into a browser-based salon tool, without requiring an app download.

Pricing

HairHunt is freemium. The Free plan costs nothing and gives one hairstyle try-on, access to 100+ styles and a watermark-free result. That is enough for a single initial preview, but the one-try-on cap limits exploration.

The Subscription plan costs $9.99 a month and provides 200 credits every month, with cancellation anytime. It suits users expecting to compare multiple looks regularly; the monthly credit allotment is the trade-off for continued access. Pay as you go costs $19.99, paid once and includes 200 credits, premium features and watermark-free results, with no commitment. It fits occasional users who want the same stated credit amount without a monthly subscription, though it costs more than one month of Subscription.

HairHunt Pro advertises a 30-day free trial for the first 50 salons. Its subscription covers all stylists on a team, but salon pricing is custom pricing.

Platforms

HairHunt is available on iOS, Android and the web. The consumer app is identified as an iOS and Android app; HairHunt Pro runs in a browser and needs no app download.

Who it's for

HairHunt is a sensible choice for someone who wants to compare a haircut or color on a photo before committing, especially if one free preview is enough to begin. The paid plans make more sense for people who will generate several options. Salons considering a consultation aid can look at HairHunt Pro, but its trial is limited to the first 50 salons.

Pros and cons

• Pro: The free tier includes a watermark-free result, so the initial preview can be shared without branding.
• Pro: Haircut and color options cover varied styles for women and men, and reference uploads support inspiration-led previews.
• Pro: Salon Pro covers all stylists on a team, rather than requiring a separate subscription per stylist.
• Con: The free tier allows only one try-on, so users comparing several looks will need paid credits.
• Con: The one-time 200-credit option costs $19.99, paid once, more than the 9.99 USD monthly plan, making it less economical for a user who needs only one month of access.

Verdict

Choose HairHunt if you want to preview a broad range of cuts and colors on a photo, and a single free, watermark-free try-on is enough to get started. Its main advantage is a usable free preview paired with monthly or one-time credit choices; look elsewhere if you need more free experiments or a cheaper small credit pack.
