Naee

Naee is an iPhone app for visualizing hairstyle, texture, and color changes on your own photos, with reference-image matching and an AI stylist chat. It is best suited to people narrowing down ideas before a salon appointment. The free download is useful for trying the concept, but regular AI generation depends on credits or a subscription.

Its strongest case is visual comparison: you can bring your own photo, borrow cues from a reference look, and save options for discussion later. It is less suitable if you need Android, web access, or a substitute for an in-person stylist’s assessment.

Overview

Naee combines AI hairstyle try-ons, hair-color previews, reference-photo interpretation, and advice about face shape, everyday care, and style choices. Upload a reference image and the app extracts cues such as cut, length, and color to recreate the look on your photo. Face-shape analysis and suggested hairstyles offer a second way to find ideas when you do not have a specific model in mind.

Saved favorites and comparisons make the app more useful as a planning aid than as a one-off novelty. You can keep several alternatives and use them as a visual reference at a salon. Generated images remain previews, however; they cannot account for your actual hair condition, density, texture, or a stylist’s judgment in person.

Key features

Photo try-ons and reference looks

Naee applies cuts, colors, and textures to a user-supplied photo. Hair-color preview and reference-image upload are supported, and reference matching reduces the need to describe a desired style in words. This is particularly helpful when you have a saved inspiration photo but want to see how its visual cues might translate to your own face.

AI stylist and organization

The AI hairstylist chat covers face shapes, routine care, and style decisions, complementing the image tools with conversational guidance. Face-shape analysis can suggest hairstyles, while saved looks and comparison tools help you sort possibilities and retain a salon-ready reference.

Photo handling

Selected photos are sent to Google AI Services through Firebase for real-time face analysis and hairstyle generation. Naee says photos are not used to train AI models and are not retained on Google servers after processing. Original photos and face-analysis results are stored only on your device while the app is installed. Mixpanel receives anonymized usage analytics, and RevenueCat receives anonymized purchase and subscription-status data. The company uses commercially reasonable security practices but does not guarantee information security.

Pricing

Naee is freemium. The free download costs 0.00 USD and includes in-app purchases, with AI generations requiring a subscription or credit purchase after the limited-credit free trial.

The 5-credit and 20-credit bundles suit occasional experiments while limiting upfront spend. The 25-credit bundle costs only slightly more than 20 credits, making it the more practical small purchase for comparing several looks. At 22.99 EUR, the 100-credit bundle offers substantially more units than the separate 50-credit bundle at the same price, so the latter is difficult to justify unless its denomination fits a specific need. The 17.99 EUR monthly option is for recurring use rather than a single salon decision; ongoing generations, color changes, and Stylist Mode remain tied to paid credits or subscription access.

Platforms

Naee is an iPhone app and requires iOS 17.6 or later. There is no Android or browser version, so device choice is the decisive compatibility constraint.

Who it's for

Choose Naee if you use an iPhone, have reference photos to interpret, and want several visual options before speaking with a stylist. It is also a good fit for users who value an advice chat and want to save comparisons rather than generate a single image. Android users, browser-first users, and anyone wanting unlimited exploration without paid credits should look elsewhere.

Pros and cons

• Pros: Reference-photo cues make it easier to recreate a specific cut, length, or color idea.
• Pros: Face-shape suggestions, stylist chat, and saved comparisons support both discovery and salon preparation.
• Pros: Photos are not used for AI training and are not retained on Google servers after processing.
• Cons: Continued generations, color changes, and Stylist Mode require credits or a subscription after the limited trial.
• Cons: iPhone-only support and the iOS 17.6 requirement exclude Android and web users.
• Cons: Results are visual guidance, not a reliable prediction of an in-person cut or color outcome.

Verdict

Naee is a strong choice for iPhone users who want reference-led previews, color experimentation, and saved comparisons before a salon visit. Its main reason to choose it is the combination of photo matching and stylist guidance; its main reason to look elsewhere is the iPhone-only platform and paid-credit requirement for continued AI use.
