Can I upload a hairstyle from Instagram or Pinterest and try it on?
Yes. Glancely supports custom hairstyle references, including screenshots and inspiration photos from Instagram, Pinterest, salon galleries, or anywhere else.
Custom hairstyle references
Try a hairstyle from any reference
Found a haircut on Instagram, Pinterest, TikTok, a salon gallery, or a screenshot from a friend? Upload the reference and Glancely previews that look on your own face.
Turn inspiration into a preview
Most people already have a folder of hair ideas. The problem is knowing whether that exact reference works with your face shape, hair texture, density, color, and proportions.
Glancely lets you use external references as a starting point, so the style you saved can become a realistic preview on your own face.
Reference sources
- Instagram hairstyle screenshots
- Pinterest hair inspiration photos
- Celebrity haircut references
- Salon or barber gallery images
- Photos from friends, saved posts, or moodboards
How custom references work
- Save or screenshot the hairstyle reference you like.
- Upload your own photo so Glancely can use your face as the canvas.
- Add the reference image and preview a similar haircut or color direction on yourself.
- Compare it with personalized recommendations and catalog styles before deciding.
Better than guessing
A reference photo shows someone else's face. Glancely helps you test the idea against yours.
Useful for salons
Bring both the reference and your Glancely preview so your stylist has clearer direction.
Works with color ideas
Try color references too, including blonde, brunette, balayage, highlights, and fashion shades.
Questions
Custom hairstyle references
Can I try a celebrity haircut or salon reference photo?
Yes. You can upload a clear reference image and Glancely will use it as inspiration to preview a similar haircut or color direction on your own face.
What makes a good hairstyle reference image?
Use a clear reference where the haircut shape, length, texture, or color is visible. Heavily filtered or blurry images may be less useful.
Try the screenshot before you show it.
Upload the reference, preview it on your own face, and walk into the appointment with a stronger visual ask.
