What A Shame
angelschambersJuly 10, 2005
Pros
Future versions of this program are very capable of receiving 5 star ratings!
Cons
The concept of the program is the equivalent of giving Einstein some Oxy-cottons. Great idea, poor execution. The program was obviously released prematurely per all the bugs I've received so far. Minimizing and maximizing the window causes the program to get wiped out completely (blank white screens). And after the first few tries, the 'fine tune outline' button doesn't work anymore. It just freezes up the program completely. Currently, it's not worth the price of bottled water from Mexico. But definately worth keeping an eye on.
Summary
using just the trial version is great

Summary
I wouldn't pay $20 for it, but I'm cheap. The trial version won't let you save images (but you can print them)and there is a "the mirror" type written over your image--the more features you use, the darker the type becomes. There is a limited selection of hairstyles, but they actually look pretty good compared to most other programs like this--trust me, I've checked out all I could find! The hair doesn't look quite as fake and painted on (even in unnatural colors). I really like the outline feature this uses, it's much nicer than any others I've come across. While you do have a wide range of color choices, you are still on your own for determining what those shades match up to by brand and color name. Overall, I'd say it's a great program for playing with and well worth downloading for a trial. There aren't a lot of free programs like this out there (particularly to let you import your own photo) and it really is one of the better ones I've found. If I could see the options available on the full version, I would consider purchasing it but without it, too much cash for too little product. For people looking to compare this product to other free ones, check out; Maggi hairstyles and cosmetics, Hair Pro 9.0, and SalonStar. You can also use the make-over-matic at iVilliage.com (which provides color names and brands for the hair color and make-up you select).
Good for a laugh...

Summary
This program is good for a laugh, but I would never use it in any professional sense, and would never pay $20 for it. It was useful, however, in seeing what different color lipstick and eyeshadow would look like, and a few different limited hairstyles. It was worth the time to download.
Don't even bother

Summary
Don't even bother wasting the time to download this. This is probably the worst virtual makeover program I've ever tried, free or otherwise. All the makeovers you try look so fake and distorted its almost laughable. Sounded good in concept but awful in execution.
