This technique will require a more artistic interpretation than the ones we have previously tried. This time we’ll use hair brushes to paint a custom, natural-looking hair mask. We’re going to need a more hands-on approach because isolating the hair is virtually impossible. We won’t be able to use channels to make this selection, and Refine Edge will likely fail because the edges are so hard to define.

What makes this so difficult is the lack of contrast (in both color and brightness) between the hair and the background. Tip: When using the brushes with colors, experiment with different opacities, double clicking the brushes and using Adjustment Layers to get the perfect shade.In this exercise, you’ll tackle our most difficult hair-silhouetting challenge yet: a blonde with very frizzy hair standing in front of a wall that’s very close to the same color. Create a new layer, and select the brush tool, and pick one of the new brushes.This should populate the brush palette with your new styles. Find the extracted ABR file(s) and click okay.Click on the extended menu and find the option to “Load Brushes”.In the upper right of the brush palette there is a small down arrow next to a set of lines, this is the extended menu.Find the brush palette, or open it by going to Window > Brushes.Open an existing Photoshop file or create a new document.Save the resource file and extract the ABR file to a directory you can remember.They can also be combined together to cover larger areas.
