Hairstyle/Makeup Makeover Technology

Have you ever brought a picture of a hairstyle with you to your hairdresser only to HOPE that it will look just as good on you as it did on that person? Have you ever made the mistake of getting a new hairstyle doesn't look as good on you as it does on everyone else? Perhaps it did not fit your face shape or the color did not complement your skin tone? These are now mistakes of the past now that there are technologies such as the hair and makeup makeover tool on Instyle's website. This technology allows you to upload your photo and to literally try on various hair styles, colors (+hightlights and lowlights), makeup, and even colored contact lens. Because you can "try it on" first, you can actually prevent yourself from making decisions you might regret. This tool has helped me tremendously over the past year. At one point, I wanted to cut my hair short, but after trying on various short hairstyles, I realized that I should stick with my longer locks because of my face shape. I have also tried on various makeup colors that I would never usually buy, and found out that they looked better than I thought.

Here is an example a couple of makeovers I did on myself....
