On this video tutorial Aaron Nace from Phlearn demonstrates how to make any hair color looks much better in Photoshop.
The workflow in this video is quite straightforward – we create a color fill adjustment layer, limit this layer to just the highlights, change the blend mode of this layer to ‘Vivid Light’ or ‘Overlay’ and adjust the color to make a more natural highlight color in the hair. Finally Nace shows how to dodge and burn hair for even more depth.
Hair is a reoccurring subject here on LensVid with many past videos including “How To Quickly Remove Stray Hairs in Photoshop“, How to Cut Out Complex Hair in Photoshop, “How to Make Fine Hair Selections in Photoshop” and “Advanced Hair Selection Tutorial – Masking Hair In Photoshop”.
