Use them to choose a cut that looks current and is easy to wear every day. Type a different direction, such as wavy hair or with a beard, to ask for a variation.

Frequently asked questions

What is in the nine pictures?

Three cuts for young men, each in three views: an on-campus photograph, a dorm room photograph and a side profile. The cuts are a textured crop with a mid fade, a messy curtain cut and a fluffy fringe.

Why are the pictures taken on campus and in a dorm?

The settings show each cut in everyday student life, in outdoor and indoor light.

Can I ask for a different colour or hair type?

Yes. Type it as your direction. The new picture follows your words, so it may differ from these nine.

About toile

This page is a showcase and a starting point: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Take any of them further on the wall with a few words, or ask for all nine again under your own direction; a sign-in keeps what you make, and it is free while Toile is new. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
