THE PURPLE PALETTE
Select a purple to compare it with the original portrait and read how it differs from its neighbors, then try it on your own photo.
Original
Lavender
A soft pastel purple that leans blue, so it reads cooler than lilac at a similar lightness.
Compare: lavender and orchid for a blue-leaning versus a red-leaning purple.
01 · PASTEL TO DEEP
The same face in lilac, orchid and plum shows how much depth changes a purple look. On this model, pale lilac stands out against her dark brows, while plum stays much closer to them.
From bluer to redder
Vertical positions use catalog base levels, not the finished shade brightness. Select a purple to update the palette above.
02 · BLUE OR RED
Every purple mixes blue and red. Lavender and violet purple lean blue (cool), orchid and plum lean red (warm), and lilac and eggplant sit in between (neutral). Select a purple on the chart to update the palette and the tool above.
03 · YOUR STARTING PHOTO
Purple reads differently as the light changes. Deep shades such as eggplant can look almost black in dim light, and soft pastels are easy to misread under colored or low light. Start from a photo taken in even daylight so the preview is easier to judge.

This purple hair filter edits a still photo rather than running as a live TikTok camera effect. Download a preview you like to keep or share it; lighting and image quality still affect how the purple reads.
Lavender and violet purple lean blue, orchid and plum lean red, and lilac and eggplant sit in between. Compare one from each side on the same photo rather than treating a skin-tone label as a rule.
The preview can show lilac or lavender on a dark-haired photo. It does not assess your hair or how it would lighten; pastels are usually applied over much lighter hair than plum or eggplant, so ask a colorist what your hair would need.
Eggplant is the deepest purple here and can read close to black in dim light, with more purple showing in brighter light. An evenly lit photo makes its preview easier to judge.
The edit aims to change hair color while retaining your appearance. AI may alter small details, so compare your face, brows, hairline and texture with the original.
Upload a male portrait or choose the male sample. Check how the purple sits next to your brows and any beard, and compare a pastel with a deep purple on the same photo.
