Snipd
What it is
Snipd is an iPhone app and web service for previewing hairstyles and hair colors before a salon visit. Using a selfie, its virtual try-on shows possible styles and colors on your photo. You can also provide a hairstyle reference image and explore that look, though some reference-matching features require Premium. For a photo-free starting point, the website offers a quiz: answer five questions to get three hairstyle ideas without signing up. Snipd says its ideas cover straight, wavy, curly, and coily hair, as well as braids and locs. The service presents previews as a way to explore options and share a favorite with a stylist, while cautioning that the actual haircut or color may differ. The listed platforms are iOS and web, and the iPhone app requires iOS 17 or later. The free plan is free. Premium costs $29.99, paid once, billed 3 months, or $69.99 a year, billed Yearly.
