Figure 1 is a picture illustrating network connection of electronic hair coordination system according to the invention. Electronic hair coordination system (100) adjusts size and position of inputted user photo image according to guideline and extracts face profile from adjusted user image to make various hair-coordination possible by combining it with adjusted hairstyle image by guideline. Also, electronic hair coordination system (100) saves hairstyle image matching facial type, and it makes possible to choose and to composite hairstyle image that matches well with user's facial type by judging facial type information from user's face profile. User (110) is connected to hair electronic system (100) through communication network (130) and may own user terminal (115) to connect with communication network (130). User (110) inputs own photo image to hair electronic coordination system (100) through user terminal (115) and performs various hair coordination by compounding it with hairstyle image. Figure codes (120) illustrate an example of program conducted in electronic coordination system (100): User terminal (115) is an apparatus, which is equipped with memory, like desktop PC, notebook PC, PDA, and mobile terminal, and microprocessor to have computation function with connection ability to wired and wireless communication network. According to another operating example of the invention, user terminal (115) can operate this invention by downloading a certain program (120), which is needed to conduct hair coordination, from electronic hair coordination system (100). Each step to conduct this invention can be operated in electronic coordination system (100) and user terminal (115) separately or in either part as a whole. Figure 2 is a picture illustrating interior constitution of electronic hair coordination system according to an operating example of the invention. As shown in Figure 2, electronic hair coordination system (100, 200) includes image saving part (201), user photo adjustment part (202), profile extraction part (203), and image composite part (204). Image saving part (201) saves hairstyle image adjusted to certain preset size and guideline. Guideline above, a fixed oval area, makes possible for natural composite with user's face profile by adjusting position and size of hairstyle image as guideline a center. In other words, guideline can be standard information for compounding hairstyle image and face profile image. Hereafter, method for creating hairstyle image is explained referring Figure 3. Figure 3 is a picture illustrating method to create hairstyle image that will be saved in hairstyle image saving part according to an operating example of the invention. As shown in Figure 3, to extract hairstyle image, an image including hairstyle to be extracted needs to be placed on guideline (301) first. Position and size of guideline (301) can be set beforehand, and once preset guideline information can have fixed information until completion on image composite of hairstyle image and face profile image. In case of placing an image including hairstyle on guideline (301), position of hairstyle image can be adjusted so face image can be inside of guideline (301) area. By removing face image, background image, and upper body image included in guideline (301) area from image above, only hair image can be saved. Therefore, it is possible to create natural composite image without readjusting size and position on compounding image since hairstyle image (303) adjusted to position and size of guideline (301). Also, only upper body image can be extracted from image above to save certain space. On creating hair coordination image, it could be unnatural image when only hairstyle image and face image are in composite. Therefore, compounding user's face image and extracted upper body image more on it would make natural composite image. User photo adjustment part (202) adjusts size and position of user's photo by inputting user's photo image and providing guideline. Inputted user's photo image can be adjusted to guideline for natural composite with hairstyle image saved in hairstyle image saving part (201). Guideline above is a same guideline to extract hairstyle image, and user's face image can be adjusted to be inside of the guideline as a standard by moving position of user's image or adjusting size. User's photo image may become converted 2-dimensional digital image, which is shot by digital camera or shot by analog camera to scan. Profile extraction part (203) extracts face profile from user's adjusted photo image above. In case of compounding with hairstyle image, only face image is needed among user's image. Therefore, only profile image corresponding to face profile is extracted among user's image, and hair coordination can be conducted through compounding extracted profile image and hairstyle image. Processes of extracting face profile by profile extraction part (203) are, to extract face profile first, plural number of control points regarding face profile on user's photo image are inputted by manage, and face profile image can be extracted using scan-line technique and alpha channel information after applying B-Spline curve between those control points. Hereafter, method to extract face profile is explained using Figure 4a to Figure 4c. Figure 4a, 4b, and 4c are pictures illustrating method to extract profile image of a face from user image according to an operating example of the invention. First, as shown in Figure 4a, certain number (i.e. 4) of control points (401) is inputted on upper, lower, left, and right side of user's face image. Next, B-Spline curve (402) is applied on inputted control points above, and user's face area is specified connecting those control points. Then, referring Figure 4b, scan-line technique can be applied on specified face area above. Scan-line technique is used to make area of face image by assembling squares as it scans vector area line (403) unit consisted of polygon. Finally, referring Figure 4c, face area can be extracted by using alpha channel information on image, which scan-line technique is applied. Alpha channel of image has 0~255 of value, which indicates permeability of image. Alpha channel is mainly used to save selected area since black portion cannot be seen, and semitransparent white is expressed as opaque. As another method to extract a face profile image, it is possible to extract user's face profile by selecting pre-selected face area and adjusting size of selected face area portion. For example, if user's face type is oval shape, user's face image is showed as oval-shaped face profile when oval shape is selected (i.e. clicking mouse) among face types, and portion corresponding to user's face profile can be selected by adjusting size of selected profile line or face area portion. Figure 5 is a picture illustrating color-editing method of user's face image and hairstyle image according to an operating example of the invention. As shown in Figure 5, hairstyle image and user image have different brightness, saturation, and luminance since they were not shot at same place or same lighting. Because of this, editing with similar color information of extracted user's face image and hairstyle image can make natural hair coordination. Generally, image files include brightness, contrast, and RGB color information. Therefore, referring brightness, contrast, and RGB color information of hair style image saved in hair style image saving part (201) makes possible to edit most similar color information between user's face profile image and hair style image. For example, using brightness, contrast, and RGB color information of hair style image to create composite image, a user can change each pixel's RGB information of user's face profile image to match selected hair style image with face profile image. Image composite part (204) creates a composite image by compounding the extracted face profile image and the hairstyle image. Also, image composite part (204) can composite upper body image and face profile image before compounding face profile image and hairstyle image. This image composite part (204) can create a composite image by overlapping desired images. For example, user's face profile image is overlapped on upper body image first, and again on those, selecting hairstyle image can overlap face profile image and hairstyle image. Hereafter, a method to composite images is explained referring Figure 6 and Figure 7. Figure 6 is picture illustrating an example of method to composite user's face image and upper body image according to an operating example of the invention. As shown in Figure 6, a user can composite user's face profile image and upper body image before compounding hair style image and user's face profile image. To composite upper body image and user's face image, a user selects desired upper body image among upper body images first and overlaps user's face profile image on it. In this case, user can adjust size that user's face profile image can fit to guideline while providing guideline. As above, based on composite image of upper body image and user's face profile image, it is possible to conduct compounding of various hairstyle images. Figure 7 is a picture illustrating an example of method to composite a face profile image and hairstyle image according to another operating example of the invention. As shown in Figure 7, overlapping desired hairstyle image by a user to coordinate on composite image of upper body image and face profile image can complete hair coordination image. In other words, hairstyle image can be overlapped on face profile image for coordination. Also, it is possible that a user can experience diverse hair coordination by compounding numerous hairstyle images with face profile image. Since hair style image and user's face profile image are adjusted to preset guideline, it is possible to composite naturally with user's face profile image by moving hair style image to corresponding position (hair image position of guideline). Figure 8 is a picture illustrating interior constitution of electronic hair coordination system according to other operating example of the invention. As shown in Figure 8, electronic hair coordination system (800) includes hairstyle image saving part (801), profile extraction part (802), facial type judgment part (803), hairstyle image selection part (804), and image composite part (850). Hairstyle image saving part (801) can save hairstyle image with matching facial type information together. The facial type information may be one of long shape, rectangular shape, inversed triangle shape, round shape, and diamond shape. For example, if short hairstyle matches well on diamond facial shape, various short hairstyle images can be saved with 'diamond shape' of facial type information. Also, the hairstyle image can be saved by each image including same facial type information. Therefore, users can select their matching hairstyle image according to their facial image easily. Also, hairstyle image saving part (801) can save hairstyle images including more on hairstyle sorting information. The hair style sorting information can be one of 1) pure, 2) natural, 3) feminine, 4) traditional, 5) cute, 6) active, 7) sporty, 8) casual, and 9) trendy. Therefore, in hairstyle image saving part (801), 'hair style image-facial type information-hair style sorting information' can be saved together. Profile extraction part (802) extracts face profile image from the user photo image after inputting user photo image, which shot the user. To extract face profile image, plural number of control points on face profile from the user's 2-dimensional photo image are inputted, and circle shaped area, which is to face profile, is selected applying B-Spline curve between the control points. As line unit scans the circle shaped area and scan-line technique to make rectangular collection is applied, it is possible to extract only face profile image by setting alpha channel. In other words, face profile can be extracted with the same method of profile extraction part (202) on electronic hair coordination system (200) (refer Figure 4a to 4c). Facial type judgment part (803) judges the user's facial type from the face profile image. Facial type can be distinguished automatically by judging which facial type is most similar to the extracted face profile image. For example, keeping standard facial type image information corresponding to each facial type and comparing the extracted user's face profile image with the standard image can judge user's facial type using most similar standard facial type information. Also, it is possible to input facial type information directly from users. Hairstyle image selection part (804) selects one or more hairstyle images matching with the user's facial type among hairstyle images saved in the hairstyle image saving part. Hairstyle images saved in hairstyle image saving part (801) are also with facial type information and hairstyle sorting information. Therefore, it is possible to select a hairstyle image matching to the user referring the facial type information and hairstyle sorting information. For example, if judged facial type information from user's face profile image is 'round shape' and the user wants feminine hair style, one of more images among 'round shape' images for facial type information and 'feminine' images for hair style saved in hair style image saving part (801) can be selected. Therefore, it is easy for users to select matching hairstyle image. Image composite part (850) provides a composite image to users by compounding the extracted face profile image and the selected hairstyle image. Overlapping the selected hairstyle image on the user's face profile image can create the composite image. Since the hair style image and user's face profile image are adjusted to preset guideline, it is possible to create natural composite image without editing on position and size of hairstyle image and face profile image. Users can access to electronic hair coordination system (200, 800) through network to conduct various types of hair coordination, and it is possible that users can send the created coordination image on web to mobile terminal. For example, among plural number of created hair coordination image on web, users can select a desired hair coordination image and sends it to own mobile terminal. After receiving hair coordination image from mobile terminal, users can request same hairstyle, which was received, by visiting hair service providers, such as beauty shops, and showing it to a hair designer. Therefore, it is possible that users can experience hairstyle in real operated on web. Figure 9 is a picture illustrating a scene conducting hair coordination as a user accesses to electronic hair coordination system according to an operating example of the invention. First, as shown in Figure 9, users can conduct hair coordination by using hair coordination operating program (900) installed in user terminal. First, a user calls up a photo image (901), which was shot on the user, to hair coordination operating program (900) and extracts user's face profile image (902). On the extracted face profile image, overlapping hairstyle image can create various hair coordination images. Also, it is possible that users can select compounding hair style image according to user's facial type and hair style sorting information and create composite image according to guideline by selecting more on upper body image and background image. Figure 10 is a picture illustrating constitution of electronic hair coordination system according to another operating example of the invention. As shown in Figure 10, electronic hair coordination system (1000) may include user terminal (1010) and hair image transmission server (1020). On user terminal (1010), user photo image, which shot user, is inputted, and it extracts face profile image from the user photo image to transmit it with the user's contact information of mobile terminal to image transmission server. In other words, only user's face image is transmitted to image transmission server (1020) on user terminal, and compounding with hairstyle image can be done in hair image transmission server (1020). This user terminal (1000) can be determined as an apparatus equipped with memory, like desktop PC, notebook PC, PDA, and mobile terminal, and microprocessor to have computation capacity with connection ability to wired and/or wireless communication network. Hair image transmission server (1020) saves hairstyle image and sends composite image, which saved hairstyle image and face profile image received from user's terminal are applied. In this case, user (1015), who requests image transmission to image transmission server (1020), and user (1035), who receives from image transmission server, can be same user or different user. For transmission to mobile terminal, one of these services, which are MMS, SMS, and URL Call Back service, can be used. MMS (Multimedia Messaging System) is a multimedia messaging service transmitting photos, movies, music, or voices as a file with text message, and it makes possible to transmit various information comparing to SMS, which transmits simple text messages. SMS (Short Message Service) is a service that can send text message (80 bytes, 40 characters if Korean) from mobile terminal. It is possible to send it from web site to mobile terminal or between mobile terminals. URL Call Back service is a method to check desired information connecting to corresponding web address (i.e. phone page) received on mobile phone, if maximum volume of text message (80 bytes, 40 characters if Korean) is exceeded on sending message using SMS. In other words, URL Call Back is utilized with short sentenced message provided by former SMS, it is possible to send various multimedia points, like image and text. This hair image transmission server (1020) may include hair style image saving part that saves face type information matching hair style image, hair style image selection part that selects more than one hair style image matching user's face type among saved hair style images in hair style image saving part, and image composite part that composites the extracted face profile image and selected hair style image to provide. Also, hair image transmission server (1020) creates more than 2 composite images by selecting more than 2 images among saved hair style image above and sends to the user's mobile terminal (1030) by creating image file, which shows more than 2 composite images in turn. For example, if 3 hair style images matching user face type information and hair style sorting information that user wants are selected, 3 hair coordination images are created by compounding 3 selected hair style images with user's face profile image. Then, it creates an image file showing 3 created images in turn and sends to user's mobile terminal. Therefore, user (1035) can receive coordination information of various hairstyles by one message transmission. Hereafter, hair coordination image transmitted to user's mobile terminal is explained referring Figure 11. Figure 11 is a picture illustrating an example of hair coordination image transmitted to user's mobile terminal according to an operating example of the invention. As shown in Figure 11, if 3 hairstyle images (1101) matching to face profile image received from user terminal are selected, each coordination image (1102, 1103, 1104) can be created by compounding selected hairstyle images and user's face profile image. Those 3 composite images becomes an images file, for instance, a certain button on user's mobile terminal changes each composite image to show, and it is transmitted to user's mobile terminal. Also, while transmitting the image, certain text message corresponding the coordination image can be sent together. Electronic hair coordination system above can be used with customer management system in a place providing hair service, such as a beauty shop. If a certain customer visits a beauty shop and receives hair service, information of the customer, such as name, sex, visit date, facial type, desired hair style sort, contact number of mobile terminal, and hair service type with user's photo image, can be saved. The photo image can be inputted in terminal (PC) installed at the beauty shop to extract face profile image from the customer's photo image, and it can be transmitted to image transmission server with the customer's mobile terminal number. Image transmission server refers plural facial type information of hairstyle image and hairstyle-sorting information the user wants, and then, it selects more than 1 hairstyle image matching to customer's face profile image. Then, various hair coordination images can be created by compounding the selected plural hairstyle images and customer's face profile image. A text message including certain explanation regarding hair coordination and hair coordination image above is prepared to send to the customer's mobile terminal. Transmission method may be one of MMS, SMS, or URL Call Back. Also, time frame to send hair coordination image to customer's mobile terminal may be certain period after last hair service for customer, a point that a new hair style becomes a trend, or a point that season changes. For example, if a customer visits and receives hair cut service on November 10th, 2004, more than one hair coordination images matching the customer are created and sent to the customer's mobile terminal. Therefore, customers can get hairstyle information matching to them without visitation to a beauty shop and consultation with a hair designer, and for beauty shops, it is possible to improve customer management service by sending multimedia information including various information rather than simple text message using SMS. Figure 12 is a picture illustrating method flow to provide electronic hair coordination according to an operating example of the invention. First, at step (1201), a hairstyle image adjusted to certain preset size and guideline is saved. The guideline is a fixed oval shape area, and it can make composite of hairstyle image and user's face profile image as guideline a center. At step (1202), a user photo image, which shot a user, is inputted, and size and position of the user photo image is adjusted by providing the guideline. User's face image can be adjusted to be inside the guideline by moving position of user's image or adjusting size as the guideline a standard. At step (1203), a face profile image is extracted from the adjusted user photo image. The face profile image can be extracted by using scan- line technique and alpha channel information after inputting plural number of control points regarding face profile of user photo image and applying B- Spline between the control points. At step (1204), a composite image is created by compounding the extracted face profile image and the hairstyle image. Compounding images can be conducted by overlapping hairstyle image on user's face profile image. Figure 13 is picture illustrating method flow to provide electronic hair coordination according to another operating example of the invention. Providing method of electronic hair coordination according to an operating example of Figure 13 is conducted by electronic hair coordination system (800) mentioned in Figure 8. First at step (1301), a hairstyle image is saved in hairstyle saving part with matching facial type information (long type, rectangular type, inversed triangle type, round type, diamond type, and etc.) Also, the hairstyle image can be saved together with hairstyle sorting information (pure, natural, feminine, traditional, cute, active, sporty, casual, trendy). At step (1302), a user photo image, which shot a user, is inputted, and a face profile image is extracted from the user photo image. Extracting face profile image can be conducted as the same method of step (1203). At step (1303), the user's facial type is judged from the face profile image. For user's facial type, most similar facial type information is selected by judging degree of similarity of each facial type of face profile image, or facial type information can be inputted directly from the user. At step (1304), more than one hairstyle image matching to the user's facial type is selected among hairstyle images saved in the hairstyle image saving part. Also, the user inputs hairstyle-sorting information that a user wants, and a hairstyle image can be selected by referring more on inputted hairstyle sorting information.
