D. Utilizing a Model Photograph
 
You have the option to use a picture of yourself to experiment with different hairstyles, but you can also opt for a model photo. Model photos come in handy when you want to become familiar with the app before using your own image. If you're particularly fortunate, one of the models might even bear a resemblance to you!
 
To begin, open both the left and right panels, and in the right panel, select "Female" or "Male." On the left panel, you'll find a variety of model photos to choose from.

E. Uploading Your Own Photo
 
You have the option to use a photo of yourself for experimenting with different hairstyles.
 
Important Note: To safeguard your privacy, your photo is temporarily uploaded to your web browser, not to a remote server. In simple terms, your photo remains on your own device. Consequently, you'll need to upload your photo again after leaving or refreshing the webpage. The app does not retain your photo.
 
For optimal results, adhere to the following guidelines when selecting a photo:
 
Opt for a portrait-oriented photo, meaning a picture taken with the camera held vertically.
 
• Aim for an ideal aspect ratio of 1:1.2, where the height is 1.2 times the width.
 
• Ensure a solid and plain background and take the photo in well-lit surroundings.
 
• Capture a photo of just your head and shoulders.
 
• Allow ample space above your head; this can be particularly helpful when experimenting with updo hairstyles, styles with spikes, and so forth.
 
• Maintain direct eye contact with the camera and avoid tilting your head.
 
• Ensure your hair is completely clear of your face and ears.
 
• Use a photo in jpg or png format with a maximum size of 10MB. Photos from most smartphones work perfectly.
