How to upload photos so the model still looks like you

Eight to twenty selfies. No sunglasses. No group shots. The rest is angles, light, and what we actually send the lab.

Allen Mann

Every generator in the ranking trains a small copy of your face. Garbage in is not a cliché here — it is the whole game. We use the same kit on every tool so the ranking is fair. You should steal the kit.

The kit

  • 8–20 stills, not bursts of the same grin.
  • Even window light or open shade. No bathroom vanity if you can help it — we used one on purpose as a stress test, not as advice.
  • Front, both three-quarters, both profiles. Chin up, chin level, chin down.
  • Glasses on and off if you wear them in the real world.
  • Hair the way you will wear it next month, not last Halloween.

Do not send

  • Filters, beauty modes, other people’s faces in frame.
  • Sunglasses, hats that hide the hairline, heavy backlight silhouettes.
  • One mirror selfie ten times.
