# Perplexity — hairstyles, raw output

- Date: 2026-09-14, sent 17:10 (+07) (a first send at 16:47 did not register; the composer still held the brief and photo, and the arrow was clicked again), "research complete" in 2 min 22 s, 1 source. Free plan, incognito mode, interface Russian. Brief with `fixtures/face.jpg` attached via the composer's file input.
- Capture: `get_page_text` and a screenshot. The whole answer is **one generated image**: a three-panel triptych of the same face with three different cuts, captioned "Textured French Crop", "Medium Scissor Cut" and a third panel whose caption is cut off at the image edge. **No text at all** - no face-shape statement, no hair-type statement, no barber description. Below the image the free tier shows an upsell: "This question looks complex. Want cuts that account for your face proportions, hair growth patterns, and styling time? Try a more powerful model. Upgrade to Pro." `perplexity-triptych.jpg` is the screenshot.
- First read: 3 of 3 shown on the person (recognisably the same face, shirt and background); 0 of 3 described. The third panel shows a short tight curl with a fade. The middle panel's "medium scissor cut" gives the person shoulder-grazing waves - a length the fixture's cropped sides could not reach for months, which a barber cannot do in one sitting.
