# Hair Color Changer

Upload a photo and name the shade — honey blonde, copper red, jet black, pastel pink. Made recolors your hair while your face, cut, pose, and background stay the same, so you can compare shades before booking a salon visit.

## How to use Hair Color Changer

1. **Upload a clear photo**
   Choose a JPEG, PNG, or WebP where your hair is clearly visible and well lit.
2. **Name the shade**
   Be specific — “warm honey blonde,” “cool ash brown,” “copper red” — rather than just “lighter.”
3. **Let Made recolor your hair**
   Made changes the hair color while your cut, face, pose, and background stay unchanged.
4. **Compare and re-run**
   Try a few shades on the same photo, then download the JPGs you want to keep or show your stylist.

## What people use it for

- **Salon previews** See a shade on your own hair, in your own photo, before committing to a color appointment — and send the JPG to your colorist as a reference.
- **Comparing shades** Run the same photo through several descriptions — honey blonde, ash blonde, platinum — and compare the results side by side.
- **Bold color trials** Pastel pink, silver, blue, or split-dye looks are a big commitment in real life. Preview them on a photo first.
- **Subtle adjustments** Test a shade one or two levels warmer, cooler, lighter, or darker than your current color to plan a low-risk change.

## Questions about Hair Color Changer

**How does a hair color changer work?**

You upload a photo and describe the shade you want. Made prompts Google’s Nano Banana model on Replicate with that change, and the built-in prompt keeps the background, pose, and position unchanged while asking for a natural, realistic recolor.

**Can I try both natural and bold colors?**

Yes. The shade is whatever you describe — natural blondes, brunettes, and reds work the same way as pastel pink, silver, or blue. For bold shades, naming the exact tone (“pastel lavender,” “deep teal”) gives more predictable results.

**What is the difference between this and the AI Hairstyle Changer?**

The Hair Color Changer keeps your current cut and changes only the shade. The AI Hairstyle Changer changes the cut, length, and shape. If you want a new cut and a new color at once, use the Hairstyle Changer and include the color in your description.

**Will my skin tone or the background change?**

The built-in prompt preserves the background, pose, and position and limits the change to what you described. As with any generative edit, review the edges around the hairline before sharing, and re-run if anything outside the hair shifted.

**Will the salon result match the preview exactly?**

Treat the preview as a direction, not a guarantee. Real color depends on your starting shade, hair condition, and your colorist’s process, and generated results also vary slightly per run. The JPG works well as a reference to bring to the appointment.

**Can I compare several shades at once?**

Each request recolors one image with one description. To compare shades, run the same photo several times — once per shade — and line up the downloaded JPGs.

**What file do I get back?**

A JPG of the recolored photo. Each request accepts one JPEG, PNG, or WebP image.
