See the undercut before the clippers come out

Undercut Filter

Upload one photo and preview short or shaved sides with the length kept on top, on your own face.

An undercut clips the sides and back short and leaves the top long, so the two lengths sit side by side. Wear the top slicked back, swept into a quiff, or loose. AIChangeHair restyles your hair and leaves your face, skin tone, lighting, and background untouched.

Find out how much contrast you actually want, from a soft fade to a sharp disconnected line, before you sit down in the chair.✨ A brand-new report every time — a different hairstyle and color on every single generation.Edit hair · Try styles · Generate hair report

Dial in the contrast before you cut the sides

An undercut lives or dies on contrast: short or shaved sides against the length you keep up top. Where you land on that scale changes the whole look. A disconnected undercut holds a hard, clean line between the long top and the buzzed sides. A faded undercut blurs that line into a gradient for something softer. Then there's how you wear the top. Slick it back for a sharp finish, or sweep it into a quiff for height. The right call depends on your hairline, your density, and your head shape, so judge it on your own photo instead of a salon model.

Undercut with Quiff
One photo, the whole undercut spectrum

Preview a clean disconnected undercut, a softer faded version, a wavy undercut, the top slicked back or shaped into a quiff, and the side contrast turned up or down. Your face, lighting, and camera angle stay put.

Disconnected or faded

Compare a hard disconnected line between the long top and shaved sides against a faded undercut that blends into a gradient.

Pair it with a quiff or slick back

See how the long top reads swept up into a quiff for height versus slicked back flat. The styling changes everything.

Set the side length

Preview the sides as a tight buzz, a skin fade, or a longer scissor-cut taper, and find the contrast that suits your head shape.

Add a color

Try the undercut in your current shade, a bleached top, or a fresh natural tone by layering a color over the cut.

Choose a disconnected, faded, or wavy undercut

Start from a curated undercut reference so the model nails the exact contrast and silhouette: a classic cut with a clean disconnected line, a wavy undercut with texture on top, a faded version that blends into the sides, the top slicked back, or swept into a quiff. Pick the one closest to what you're after and generate it on your own photo.

Undercut Filter: Common Questions

1. What is an undercut?

An undercut clips the sides and back short, or shaves them, while the hair on top stays long. That gap between the two lengths is the whole point. You can wear the top a lot of ways: slicked back, swept into a quiff, or loose. The defining feature is the disconnect between short sides and a longer top.

2. Will an undercut suit my face and hair type?

Undercuts flatter most face shapes. Height on top lengthens a rounder face, and short sides sharpen the jawline. They work best when you have enough density and length on top to hold the contrast, so fine or thinning hair shows less of that bold effect. The real answer comes down to your specific hairline and density, which is exactly what the filter lets you check on your own photo.

3. Disconnected undercut vs faded undercut, what's the difference?

A disconnected undercut keeps a hard, clean line between the long top and the buzzed sides, so the two lengths sit right next to each other with no blending. A faded undercut softens that line into a gradient, where the sides shorten down toward the skin. Disconnected reads sharper and more dramatic; faded reads softer and lower maintenance. The filter previews both, so you can see which contrast you actually like.

4. How short are the sides, and how much commitment is it?

The sides run from a longer scissor taper down to a tight buzz or a full skin fade, and the filter lets you preview that whole range first. An undercut is a medium commitment: the short sides grow out over a few weeks and need regular touch-ups to keep the contrast crisp. But the long top stays, so it's far less drastic than a buzz cut. If you grow it out, the awkward stage sits mostly around the sides rather than your whole head.

5. Can I see the top slicked back or styled into a quiff?

Yes, and that's a big reason to preview it first. The same undercut looks very different with the top slicked back flat versus swept up into a quiff for height, and the right move depends on your hairline and how much volume you have. Use a preset or type the styling you want, like a slicked-back undercut or a textured quiff undercut, then generate both and compare.

6. Can I keep my hair color, and is it free?

By default the filter keeps your existing color and only changes the cut, so your shade stays exactly as it is. Want to push the look further? Layer a color on top, like a bleached top over dark sides. You can try the undercut filter for free, and you only sign up when you want to generate and download more previews.
