Over the years, there has been a huge number of different filters and effects that have gone viral on TikTok, some of which aren’t even available on the platform.

FaceApp’s old-age filter recently garnered traction on the short-form video app, with thousands of creators sharing their results, revealing how they’d look as a grandma or grandad.

Now, users are going gaga over the Long Hair filter, which does exactly as it promises. Here’s where to find the popular TikTok Long Hair filter and how to use it.
