Bald head filter: what changes and what stays

Only the hair on your head is removed.

  • A natural scalp follows your head shape.
  • Scalp skin matches your face and the light.
  • Face, expression and skin tone stay.
  • Clothes, background and lighting stay.
  • Beards and eyebrows usually stay.
  • Short hair, long hair and curls all work.

Bald filter on photos with short, long or curly hair

Short hair is the easiest case. Long and curly hair hide more of the head.

  • Works well: short hair with the head shape visible.
  • Works well: long and curly hair, as the examples above show.
  • Works well: portraits of any gender or age.
  • Harder: hats, hoods and headbands over the hair.
  • Harder: photos that crop off the top of the head.

Shaved head filter vs. buzz cut: tips and limits

Bald removes the hair completely. Choose Buzz cut under Hairstyle for a close, even layer instead, or add "almost shaved" in Extra details.

  • Keep the whole head in frame.
  • Write "keep the beard" in Extra details to be sure.
  • Click Try another model if the scalp looks too shiny.
  • Pick a photo with no hat, hood or headband.
  • Use the hairstyle changer for longer cuts and the hair color changer for new shades.
