REFERENCE A → YOU B

How custom reference protects identity.

Studio custom mode lets an authorized reference A contribute hairstyle structure while your target photo B remains the output identity and scene.

The custom-reference contract for separating authorized hairstyle structure from identity.

Choose a useful reference

Use one adult, visible hair, a similar camera angle and a photo you own or have permission to use.

No social-media URL importing
No celebrity or identity replication
No collages, hats or hidden hair

Reference identity is not an input goal

The reference is converted into a constrained hairstyle description and protected reference card; face, clothing and background from A stay outside the intended edit.

A result still has to pass

A candidate must be checked for identity drift, hairstyle match, edit locality and artifacts. A provider response alone can never be a delivered result.

When custom reference is unavailable

Reference upload requires sign-in and the shared Studio upload capability. Generation additionally requires the generation and provider capabilities; when those are unavailable, Studio does not create a custom job.

Start with the more stable curated path.

Custom reference is selectable after sign-in; upload and generation still follow the shared Studio and provider capabilities.
