Candy AI Character Studio: design your own character’s look

The documented path is Create Character, then Realistic, then Character Studio. Four steps follow.

1. Choose a starting point: one of the presets, or a blank start.
2. Shape the appearance. The listed options include look, ethnicity, age, body type, hairstyle, clothing, facial details, skin color, hair color and background.
3. Add the identity: a name, the character context and a greeting message.
4. Create. Follow the on-screen steps to finish.

The help-center article, updated on 13 November 2026, names these options but does not explain each control, so this guide does not describe the screens themselves.

Create My AI is Candy AI’s feature for building a custom character. Its current version 2 lets you create characters without a limit on their number, and it currently covers three ethnicities: Caucasian, Asian and Latina. Others are described as in development.

Two cost facts belong next to that. A free account can create one custom character. And the help center’s list of token uses includes creating a custom AI, without giving a price, so check what Candy AI shows before you confirm. The tokens and cost page has the rest.

What the help center documents:

• Images can still vary. Exact hair color or clothing is not guaranteed from one image to the next, so a designed look is a baseline, not a lock.
• Chat mode is a one-way door. Create My AI characters can switch from Classic to Roleplay mode, and the switch is permanent for that character.
• A reset clears memory. Resetting or deleting a chat also clears that chat’s memory, and deleted conversations cannot be recovered.
• Cancelling keeps the character. Characters, chats and images stay as long as the account exists.

What it does not document, in the articles we read, is changing a finished character’s appearance. Treat the design step as final until Candy AI shows you otherwise.
