FAQ

Common questions

When do I need masking instead of a clipping path?

Whenever the edge is soft or see-through: hair, fur, fluffy fabric, glass. Hard-edged products only need a path.

Will the hair look fake on a new background?

No. We remove the colour of the old background from the hair edges so it blends into the new one.

How is the price calculated?

Per image, based on how complex the edit is. Every service has a simple, medium and complex price, and you get an exact quote before any work starts.

How fast will I get my images back?

Most orders are delivered within 24–48 hours. Large orders are delivered in batches, and rush delivery is available on request.

Are revisions really free?

Yes. If an image does not match your instructions, we redo it at no charge.
