About this tool
Changing your hair colour is a big commitment. The hair colour try-on lets you preview different shades on your own photo so you can walk into the salon with a clear idea — or rule out a colour before you regret it.
How the hair colour try-on works
Upload a clear photo and select a colour to preview how it would look on your hair. Comparing several options on the same photo makes it much easier to judge what suits your skin tone and features than imagining it from a swatch. Your image is handled in your browser and not stored.
Take the previews you like to your stylist as a reference — it removes the ambiguity of describing a colour in words.
Why preview before you colour
Hair colour interacts with your undertone just like makeup does: warm honey and copper tones flatter warm skin, while ash and cool browns suit cool undertones. Previewing helps you avoid a colour that fights your complexion, and saves the time, cost and damage of correcting a shade you do not love.
If you are unsure of your undertone, run the shade finder first so you know whether to lean warm or cool with your colour choice.
How to prepare for a colour consultation
Create previews in natural light with your hair loose and visible, then save a small set that shows what you like and what you want to avoid. Bring those references to a qualified colourist together with photos of your current hair in daylight. Tell them about previous dye, bleach, henna, straightening, or other chemical services because that history changes what can be achieved safely in one appointment.
Ask about maintenance before committing. Platinum, vivid colours, and dramatic changes from a dark starting shade usually need more sessions, frequent toning, and careful home care. A shade close to your natural depth is often easier and less damaging to maintain. Your colourist can translate a digital direction into a realistic formula for your starting colour and hair condition.
Privacy and preview limitations
The uploaded image is used in your browser for the current preview and is not stored by Eve. Digital colour is an approximation: lighting, screen settings, hair texture, existing highlights, and the opacity of the selected overlay all influence what you see.
Use the result to compare broad directions such as warm copper versus cool brown, rather than expecting an exact salon outcome. Strand tests and a professional assessment remain the best way to predict how dye will lift and deposit on your hair.
Frequently asked questions
Is the hair colour try-on free?
Yes, it is free with no sign-up required.
Is my photo stored anywhere?
No. Your photo is processed in your browser to apply the preview and is not stored on a server.
Will the preview match my salon result exactly?
It is a guide to help you visualise and compare colours. Your real result depends on your starting colour, hair condition, and your colourist, so use it as a reference rather than a guarantee.
What photo works best?
A clear, well-lit photo where your hair is visible and not tied back gives the most realistic preview.
How do I choose a colour that suits me?
Match the colour temperature to your undertone — warm shades for warm undertones, cool shades for cool undertones. The shade finder can identify your undertone first.
