View 2 Repliestrying every layer mask combo I could think of to create a realistic shade of white hair that doesn't look like I just used the brush tool to make it.
I've tried lighting up the shadows with the curves option then using the selective color option. But all that does is make a very fake looking film to put over the eyebrows (ya it's eyebrows I'm working on, I'm trying to get them to match a white wig the subject is wearing.)
I've also tried using the solid color option, and a color overlay and that just came out weird.
Has anyone ever turned pitch black hair to white and had it still look like hair?
we recently had some photos done of the staff.

they don't like the orange background and want some other nice looking background. the male individuals would be pretty easy to cut out with pen tool but there are some females that have fluffy or frizzy hair and how to cut out around hair?

I'm sure I could go one strand at a time, but I did that last time and I really don't have that kind of patience to do it again... Is there any kind of shortcut effect?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI got a picture of a lady, however, because of the lighting and the fact that it's b/w some parts of the hair are so dark that you can't see the hair at all.
Is there any techniques I can use so that I can make it look like the hair is slightly visible (even though that area is currently a solid black).
I'm having problems masking hair in this photos:

As you can see, after refining edge, I come up with an area of lighter hair. How can I correct this?
I have this picture, of course a jpeg, so the quality sucks, and i'm having problems selecting the two girls' hair. It blends into the background to where i almost have an impossible time seeing it at all but if i just cut it out it doesn't look natural anymore.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am having trouble with my cross hair not showing the size of my brushes or clones (where it shows a circle around the cross hair to know what size the brushes are) - this has happened before and someone told me to shut it down, and re-open photoshop, but it is not working!
I just made a logo brush, and can't see the brush until I actually stamp it on my picture. I've looked around trying to see if there is a "box not checked" somewhere that would allow me to see the brush size before I start using it, no luck.
In the attached file Lady.psd she gets more / less hair depending on how many layersare on / off. Why is it so? The layers are copies of each other and the original file is fromthe book Creative Photoshop, chapter 14 by Derek Lea.

View 2 Replies View RelatedChanging hair color ou adding highlight is pretty easy if the hair is very light color (ex: blonde) but with dark hair it gets alot trickier and i am never happy with the final results...
What kind of techniques do you guys use to do this? best thing I can can up with is using color replacement tool... but the highlights and so ... its just not a vivid convencing look.
how select/color open regions.
some lines on the hair is missing, can I cannot use the magic wand. How would I color in the hair in this case?
Invisible lines are common in animation, but how would I color it in PS?
trying to use channels to make certain extractions.
I've attached a before and after. What I would like to see is somebody elses extraction of the same image to see how it should be or can be done. I put it on a black background to catch the errors.
I duplicated the blue channel, applied a level to darken the dark areas then burned the midtones...and painted with black. copied into the quickmask.
I've read a zillion tutorials on the channel extract, channels an I have never seen eye to eye.
(white background is the original)
trying to finish this image up for a few hours now and can't find a suitable way to get rid of the background behind the hair and within the net meshing. I know you people are way smarter than me and have done even harder ones than this. I just need apoint in the right direction, not looking for step by step or for someone to do it for me (I gotta learn too) - just need a bit of guidance.

I try to paint back the hair in the mask, but it's too difficult. Perhaps I can do it where hair is solid,

I want to change dark hair, such as brunette, on a photograph to white hair, but the picture needs to retain its colour.
This may sound rude since ive just signed up but i installed photoshop 2 days ago and can't manage to get it working. (although i doubt i'd know how to do this anyway)
Would someone be able to change my hair colour at all? (im not sure how difficult it is).
I have a buddy of mine who wants me to make his black hair white and ive tried everything ive found on the web and it doesnt seem to work.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am using the Filter Extract method to clear cut or background erase around some pics of ladies hair. I understand this is the best tool for this task.
I have studued the Photoshop Help and a couple of tutorials on this subject, and have achieved a couple of passable clear cuts. But as awlasy there si room for improvement.
I am trying to assemble some notes on the best settings etc to use and thought someone out there might be able to contribute.
I have found it a good concept to do the models hair with the Filter Extract option and then to use the Magic Lasso for the rest of her body. Do you agree ?
When in the Filter Extract mode is it best to zoom in on the models face to work on her hair ? Or do you work at actual size ?
Most tutorials say to use a wide brush over the hair edges. Is the idea to move the brush exactly along the hair edges or do you move it along across the edge of the hair and the background ? Is it best to set the width of the brush so that it can cover the width of all of the wispy bits of hair in one pass, or can you just go over them with the filter extract brush?
I see some strands of green hair. The portriat is ok, great not correcting it, but it would be nice if I could fix this easily. I tried selecting the strands and lens correction cromatic abberation.
