How to Choose Your Best Hair Color

Want to choose your best hair color this fall? ModiFace’s new fully-automated hair technology, ColorTry, lets you preview a new hair color. All you have to do is upload a picture and click a mouse button.

Now, you can realistically visualize yourself with a new hair color in just seconds by uploading a photo at ColorTry.com.

ColorTry is an online program that uses face-recognition technology to find your hair on a high-quality frontal picture and change the hue to your desired color.

The technology automatically detects where the hair and facial features are located in the photo. It is the only program available that realistically re-colors hair in an existing picture, rather than simply moving a pre-made hairdo over the existing hairstyle.

When you visit ColorTry.com, you need to upload a high-quality frontal photograph of yourself, and in a few seconds, your photo is automatically processed by the system.

You can then view your photo with hundreds of hair shades by making a single click on a color palette. Palette colors include blond, brunette and redhead shades, as well as exotic and custom colors.

You can e-mail the photo to yourself when you find the color you want.

Besides the website, ModiFace has developed a line of kiosks that will be placed inside malls, hair salons and fashion stores across the country. The kiosk takes your picture directly, allowing you to ‘try-on’ new hair colors in seconds.
