Step 1 / 3
Take a front selfie
Look straight into the camera, face centered, hair pulled back from the face if you can. Even lighting works best.
Step 2 / 3 · optional
Now a side photo (~45°)
Turn your head slightly to one side for a second photo. The extra angle lets the AI render the hairstyle correctly from every side.

Nobody googles "bald filter" for fun. It is the search of a man watching his hairline retreat and weighing the one move that ends the war: shaving it all off. It is also the search of somebody who lost a bet — either way, you want to know what your bare skull looks like before the razor finds out.
The face-app style bald filters answer with a cartoon: they erase your hair and paint a smooth dome that belongs to nobody. Whether YOUR bald head works depends on your actual skull shape, where your hairline sits today, your beard, your jaw — none of which a sticker filter respects.
This tool regenerates your photo instead: same face, same head, zero hair, with realistic scalp and lighting, shown from the front, both sides and behind. For a lot of men it is the thirty seconds that turns "maybe someday" into either a confident yes or a relieved no. Both are wins, and the first look is free.

Start from a neutral, well-lit photo
Even lighting matters more here than for any other look, because a shaved head is mostly about the shape of your skull and how light falls on it. Harsh overhead light exaggerates every contour.

Add the side photo
For a shaved head the profile is not optional — the back of the skull and the shape above the ears are exactly what you cannot see in a mirror and exactly what decides whether it suits you.

Compare against a #1 buzz, not just against your current hair
Almost nobody goes from full hair to a razor in one step. Seeing the buzz next to the shave tells you whether you want the intermediate stop.

Look at it with and without facial hair
A shaved head with a beard is a substantially different look from a shaved head clean-shaven. If you have a beard, preview both before deciding.
FAQ
Will I look good bald?
Depends on skull shape, facial hair and jawline — which is why generic advice is useless and a photorealistic preview of your own shaved head is not. Upload a selfie and stop wondering.
Is this the same as the bald filter on TikTok or FaceApp?
Same idea, different technology. Those apps paint a generic dome over your photo; this generates a new photoreal image of your actual head, accurate from four angles including the back.
Should I try a buzz cut preview first?
Usually, yes — the buzz cut preset shows the intermediate step, and many men discover the buzz is all they needed. Try both on the same selfie and compare.
Does a beard help a shaved head?
Almost always — the beard restores a lower frame for the face. Your photo keeps your current facial hair, so preview it as you are, then imagine one notch fuller.
How is this different from the Snapchat or Instagram bald filter
Social filters track your face live and smear the hairline when you turn your head — fine for a joke, useless for a decision. This renders a still image with a real scalp, a real hairline shadow and matching lighting, which is what you need if you are actually considering it.
Will it show what my head shape really looks like?
As closely as a photo can. It works from your own photos, so your skull shape, ears and hairline position carry through. What it cannot predict is skin tone on scalp that has never seen sun.
Is a shaved head the right move for a receding hairline?
For many people, yes — it is the one option that makes the question disappear rather than managing it. Previewing it is the cheap part of that decision; this page exists to make it cheaper.
Can I see it with a beard?
Yes. The AI works from your photo, so your facial hair stays. If you want to test the combination the other way round, upload a reference photo of the beard style you are considering.
