The 3 best apps for testing a new hair color virtually (we tried them!)

Do you want to change your hair color? Before going to the hairdresser to permanently modify it, why not try a hairstyle simulator? We reveal the best applications for testing new hair colors.

You want to change your head and fall for one of the trendiest colors of the season? It’s a good idea, but before going to your favorite hairdresser to carry out your transformation, we still advise you to do a test and discover yourself with your new color before asking your hairdresser using a app that lets you test hair colors virtually. These free applications which allow you to see yourself with colored hair before even touching it, are a precious help to avoid disappointment when leaving the hairdresser. When we know that appointments with the hairdresser can turn into a nightmare, whether for the clients or for the hairdressers themselves when both parties are not prepared in advance so that everything goes well, we understand better their utility.

Like the best applications for testing a new haircut, these hairstyle applications help us make the right choice. Thanks to them, we can determine whether we should go red, blonde or brown, but also refine the choice of shade by finding the ideal shade of blonde, brown or red. For some, they can also help us know if we should stop coloring to wear our gray hair naturally. A godsend so you never regret your next hair color! But be careful, not all hair color simulators are created equal. We reveal our applications to test new favorite colorings, a selection which combines those which offer the most realistic results and those which allow you to dare everything for the most daring ones.
