Natural hair edges
Soft brushes and feathering keep flyaway hair looking real instead of cut with scissors.

Remove the background from portraits
Give headshots, profile pictures and team photos a clean, consistent look. The AI separates people from busy backgrounds — including hair — and you can place them on a solid color, a gradient, or a softly blurred version of the original scene.

How it works
- 1
Upload a portrait
Use a photo where the person is in focus and clearly separated from the background.
- 2
Refine hair and edges
Use a soft Restore brush on missed hair and a small feather for natural edges.
- 3
Choose a new backdrop
Pick a solid color, gradient, your own image, or the blurred original background.
Professional headshots without a studio
A plain or softly graded backdrop is the classic look for LinkedIn profiles, conference speaker pages and company directories. Instead of booking a studio, you can take a well-lit photo against any wall and replace the background afterwards.
For a polished result, light the face from the front or the side near a window, keep the camera at eye level and leave some space above the head. Then crop to 4:5 or 1:1 with the subject centered.
Handling hair, glasses and fine detail
Hair is the hardest part of any cut-out. If the AI trims strands, use the Restore brush with low hardness and partial opacity and paint lightly over the edge. If background color shows between strands, a slight negative Edge shift tightens the outline.
Glasses and see-through fabrics can look odd once the background behind them changes. Choose a backdrop with a similar brightness to the original, or use the blurred background option, to keep transparent areas believable.
Frequently asked questions
Can it handle curly or flyaway hair?+
It does a good job on most hair. For perfect results, paint over missed strands with a soft Restore brush and add a feather of one to two pixels.
Can I use this for profile pictures?+
Yes. Crop to 1:1, pick a background color or gradient, and export. Most platforms accept a square JPG or PNG of 400 pixels or more.
Are portraits of my family or clients uploaded anywhere?+
No. Everything happens in your browser, which makes it suitable for client work and personal photos.
