3D Hair Reconstruction
Reconstructs 3D hair from a photo of a person.
1. Getting a token
2. Choice of photo
Choose a photo of a person.
Note: The quality of the photo must be a good resolution.
Note: Hair should be clearly visible.
Note: So far, we are unable to work well with ponytails and pigtails.
3. Reconstruct 3D Hair
Make a request by sending your chosen photo. Make sure you are using the mode you really need. 'card'
mode is used by default.
token="ENTER_YOUR_TOKEN"
image_path="ENTER_IMAGE_PATH"
curl -X 'POST' \
'https://api.metahumansdk.io/hair_recon/run_pipeline' \
-H 'accept: application/json' \
-H 'Content-Type: multipart/form-data' \
-F "token=$token" \
-F "image_bytes=@$image_path;type=image/png" > hair.glb \
-F 'mode=card'
The expected result is the hair.glb
file.
4. Check GLB model
Check saved file in GLB viewer (for example in Blender).

mode5. Visualization with head
In order to get a 3D model of the head with hair, we will use GLB Constructor:
GLB Constructor currently supports only hair involume
mode
token="ENTER_YOUR_TOKEN"
curl -X 'POST' 'https://api.metahumansdk.io/glb_const/assemble' \
-H 'accept: application/json' \
-H 'Content-Type: multipart/form-data' \
-F "token=$token" \
-F '[email protected];type=image/png' \
-F 'head_config=@head_config.json;type=application/json' \
-F '[email protected];type=image/png' \
-F 'add_facs=true' > head.glb
After the completed stages, you get a glb model head.glb
.
