Test different beard styles, or ditch the beard entirely, before making a move.
Shaving off a beard you’ve had for years is a one-way door, at least for the next few months. Growing one out when you’re not sure it’ll work is the same problem in reverse. So, here comes the question: “To shave, or not to shave?” The latest HairHunt update finally gives you the answer, as it offers real-life beard and no-beard look previews.
The latest version introduces a fully dedicated virtual beard try-on collection, giving you a realistic, personalized preview of different beard styles or a clean-shaven look before a razor touches your face. It’s already live on the HairHunt app (iOS, Android), and the results speak for themselves.
HairHunt has always been built on the idea that you should be able to see a change before you commit to it. That logic applied to haircuts and color has resonated with 980,000+ users, and now it extends to facial hair.
The new Beard Collection lets you try a beard on your face across a range of styles, from close-cropped stubble to a fuller, more sculpted look. Alongside the beard style options, there’s also a clean-shaven preview, a no-beard filter that shows you exactly what you’d look like without any facial hair at all.
What sets these results apart from a generic beard filter app is personalization. The AI reads your existing hair color and texture to generate a beard that looks like it grows on your face, not a cut-and-paste overlay.
The process fits right into your current HairHunt flow, with no extra steps or a new learning curve.
One credit per generation, same as any other single try-on in the Virtual Styler. The result is yours to save, compare, or bring to your barber as a reference.
A standard beard filter applies a flat image over your face and calls it a day. The HairHunt beard try-on takes a fundamentally different approach.
Because the AI is trained specifically on facial hair visualization, not general image editing, it accounts for your skin tone, jawline shape, and existing hair color when generating the result.
A darker-haired user will see a beard that matches their natural pigment; someone with lighter hair will see a lighter, more accurate rendering. That personalization is the reason the preview feels more like a real reflection, not a digital costume.
This matters especially for the two groups of people.
If you already have a beard and you’re trying to refine the shape or length, the feature helps you see what a different style looks like without living with a half-grown experiment.
And if you’ve never had a beard and you’re curious whether the look works with your face shape, whether you’re considering a close fade or something more substantial, the preview gives you an honest answer before the process starts.
This AI hairstyle changer for men will help you see how different hair and beard combinations work together before committing to either.
The beard remover filter option is one of the most requested features among male users, and for good reason. Growing a beard takes months, but shaving it off takes about three minutes. The problem is that it’s irreversible in the short term.
The clean-shaven option inside the Beard Collection lets you see yourself without facial hair before making the cut, literally. If you’ve had a beard for years and forgotten what your jawline looks like underneath, or if you’re just curious whether a sharper, cleaner look suits you better, tap the no-beard preview and find out in seconds.
Curious about how beard and hair choices interact with your overall aesthetic? The hair color try-on for men pairs well with this feature if you’re considering a full look change: beard style, hair color, and cut all at once.
The Beard Collection is designed to cover the range of decisions most men face. The styles available include:

The most awkward conversation at a barbershop is when you can’t explain what you want. Pointing at a vague mental image doesn’t help your barber, and it doesn’t help you get the result you’re picturing.
The try-on feature gives you a shareable screenshot before you ever sit down in the chair. You’ve seen which style fits your face, compared it with your current look, and you have a concrete visual to show your barber. That removes ambiguity from both sides of the talk.
Pairing a beard try-on with a hairstyle preview helps you see the complete picture and fine-tune both before committing.
The quality of your beard preview tracks directly to the quality of your selfie. A few practical tips:
Version 1.1.7 is already live on both iOS and Android. If you don’t see the Beard Collection in your app yet, go to the App Store or Google Play and tap Update manually. The feature will appear in the style selection list once the update is installed.
Here’s everything you need to know about the latest update.
Open the Beard Collection in the HairHunt app, tap a style, and hit Generate. The AI creates a personalized preview based on your selfie, matching the beard color and texture to your existing hair. Results save automatically to My Styles.
Yes. The Beard Collection includes a clean-shaven option, a no-beard filter that shows what you’d look like with all facial hair removed. It’s useful if you’ve had a beard for a while and want to see what a fresh start would look like before shaving.
It is. The AI reads your existing hair color and texture from your selfie and generates a beard that matches, rather than placing a generic overlay on your face. This is what separates the HairHunt beard feature from a standard beard filter app.
Each beard try-on result uses one credit, the same as any individual hairstyle try-on in the Virtual Styler.
Absolutely. The feature is specifically useful for people who have never had a beard, because it shows what different styles would look like on your clean-shaven face before any growing-in phase begins.
The beard try-on is ready when you are. Update your app, tap the collection, and see what a different look can do for your face. Forget that awkward growing-out period or barber confusion. It’s time to get a clear preview in seconds!
