AI Hairstyle Try-On
See a hairstyle on your own face before anyone touches your hair. Upload one clear photo and GlamIQ's AI renders the style on you — braids, cornrows, locs, twists, fades and more — so you are choosing from what it actually looks like on you rather than on a model. Like what you see, book the Kampala stylist who does it.

Common Questions
- Is the AI hairstyle try-on free?
- Every GlamIQ account includes one free AI try-on each week. Beauty Pass raises that to ten a day, along with priority matching and a discount on bookings.
- Do I need an account to try hairstyles online?
- Yes — a free GlamIQ account. It takes a phone number to create, and it is what keeps your uploaded photo and your previews tied to you rather than public.
- What kind of photo works best?
- A clear, front-facing photo in even light, with your face unobstructed and your current hair pulled back from your forehead if you can. Side angles and heavy shadow are what most often produce a poor result.
- Which hairstyles can I try on?
- Any style in the GlamIQ catalogue with a reference photo — which covers braids, cornrows, knotless styles, locs, twists, bantu knots, crochet, afros, wigs and men's cuts. Nail designs can be tried on too, on a photo of your hand.
- What happens to my photo?
- It is used to generate your preview and is not published anywhere. A preview only becomes shareable when you choose to share it, and only then does it get a link you can send.
- Can I book the hairstyle after the virtual try-on?
- Yes — that is the point of it. From the preview you can go straight to booking a vetted stylist in Kampala who offers that style, see the real price range before confirming, and have them come to you or visit their salon.
