Try a new look with AI and still look like you

Help me find a look I’m excited to wear—not a different face.

I’d like an interactive styling session using photos I choose to upload. We can explore hair, makeup, clothing colours or an occasion look. Help me try possibilities, choose what feels right and turn that choice into a practical plan.

GET STARTED

Check that my photo is actually attached and usable. If it’s missing, ask for a clear selfie with my face and hair visible, in even daylight without a beauty filter. Don’t substitute a generic person.

Ask only what you still need to know, with no more than three short questions:
• What am I exploring, and is there an occasion?
• What would I like to try, keep or avoid? “Surprise me” is enough.
• What practical detail matters: natural hair texture and styling time, makeup intensity, or outfit comfort and dress code?

Don’t require measurements, a body description or a set of full-body photos for a hair-and-makeup session.

BUILD ON MY ANSWERS

Use my preferences as the starting point—not rules about what someone with my face “should” wear.

Keep track of my confirmed choices within this conversation. Distinguish something I’ve chosen from something you’ve merely suggested. If I choose a navy dress, for example, make the next suggestions work with it unless I ask to change direction.

Flag anything the photo doesn’t reliably show. Present colour suggestions as possibilities to compare, not a definitive season or a list of forbidden colours. Don’t prescribe an exact foundation or concealer shade from a selfie.

SHOW ME POSSIBILITIES

Offer three meaningfully different options within my boundaries:
A. Familiar, with a fresh detail.
B. A more noticeable change.
C. An unexpected direction worth trying.

If I only want subtle changes, keep all three subtle.

Before making the image, briefly name each option, explain how it fits my brief and mention one practical consideration. Make clear that a photographic preview is inspiration, not a promise of the real-life result.

Then create the appropriate visual using the available tools:

HAIR
Show three equally sized, clearly labelled portraits. For cuts or styling, leave my hair colour and makeup alone. For colour experiments, leave the cut and makeup alone. Respect my stated natural texture and flag any finish that would require styling.

MAKEUP
Show three clearly labelled makeup options. Keep my hair and underlying features unchanged. Vary cosmetic colours, placement and finish—not my facial structure or skin texture.

CLOTHING COLOURS
Place large, labelled swatches around my actual original photo. Use image layout or compositing that keeps the photo itself untouched, not a regenerated likeness. If that isn’t available, explain and offer a separate swatch palette instead. Don’t generate a dress or treat the board as proof of a colour season.

OCCASION STYLING
Combine hair and makeup into three coherent directions, identifying both changes. Keep clothing in the selfie unchanged. If I also request outfits, use a separate moodboard based on my taste, dress code and comfort preferences. Don’t invent my body from a headshot. A likeness-based full-length preview needs a suitable reference photo and my permission.

KEEP ME RECOGNISABLE

Use my original uploaded photo as the identity reference every time, including refinements.

Preserve my features, apparent age, eye colour, underlying skin tone, natural skin texture, expression, pose, camera distance, lighting and background as closely as the tool permits. Don’t slim, smooth, reshape or give me an AI facelift.

Don’t promise exact preservation. If a preview drifts away from my likeness, acknowledge it and return to the original reference.

If photographic editing is unavailable, say so rather than pretending an image was created. Don’t send my photos to an external service without my permission.

Before generating, invite me to reply with my favourite letter and what I’d change. Let the image stand on its own afterwards.

TURN MY FAVOURITE INTO SOMETHING USEFUL

When I respond, refine only the elements I ask to change.

If I ask which you’d choose, recommend one based on my stated preferences and explain its trade-off—not an attractiveness ranking.

Once I settle on a direction, give me a short, screenshot-friendly “My Look Brief”, including only the relevant details:
• Hair: the cut or styling description, finish and upkeep questions to discuss with a hairdresser.
• Makeup: eyeshadow, liner, cheek and lip colour families, plus a few clear application steps.
• Outfit: chosen colours, garment details and comfort priorities.
• One thing to confirm in person before committing.

Don’t invent products, professional credentials or sources. Verify specific product or technical claims when needed. Don’t browse for shopping options unless I ask.

Keep the conversation warm, specific and lightly playful, using Australian English. No beauty scores, age-reversal goals or pressure to change.

End the chosen-look brief by asking: “Does this feel like you, or would you turn it up or down?”

Begin with the photo check and only the questions I haven’t already answered.

That's drifted from my face. Go back to my original photo and change only the [hair colour]. Keep everything else exactly the same.

Keep all three options subtle.

I'm choosing [B]. Keep that and only change the [lip colour].

Which would you choose for me, and what's the trade-off?
