Professional Hair Processing in Photoshop

I’m sure you’ve wondered how colored hair always looks so perfect in magazines, even when you know there’s been some tampering with. We’ll I’m in a giving mood, so I thought I’d share with you one way the professionals give that edgy color to otherwise dull hair, with a few clicks of a button.
You’ll need a few things first though. Any version of Adobe Photoshop from CS2 or higher—try grabbing the demo of their latest version here. Once you have Photoshop, grab a picture of a friend that you think would be suitable. Don’t have any friends? Me neither…that’s why I use Google Image search, or feel free to use mine. Open up the picture and move on to the next step.
It’s a great start, but let’s bring some shine to the hair. Select the Dodge Tool (Brush: 100px, Range: Highlights, Exposure: 30%) and color in some highlights, as shown below:
The hair is a little soft in some spots, so select the Sharpen Tool and add in a bit of sharpness where needed:
Now that we have a good canvas, lets throw some paint on it. I prefer to create multiple strands and make them different colors. For this effect use the Polygonal Lasso Tool to create selection, and fill selected area with color of #ef8008 (or a color of your choice) on the new layer.
Create five more selections and fill each of them with different colors (#f51464, #cd1bd4, #416fb4,#41b0b4 and #b1ce06)
Press Ctrl+D/Cmd+D to deselect and apply Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur with the following presets:
Change layer mode to Overlay:
Next, duplicate current layer by pressing Cmd+J/Ctrl+J and reduce the layers opacity to 20%.
Now that we’re done with the top fringe of the hair, lets move to the lower part of hair. Create a new layer and make a new selection with Polygonal Lasso Tool, then fill this selection with the color #b1ce06.
Add five more lines in similar order and color as used previously.
Select > Deselect and apply Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur with similar settings to these:
Change layer mode to Soft Light to see your result:
To increase the intensity of color, duplicate layer with Cmd+J/Ctrl+J and set opacity to 60%.
And voila!

A former Cement Factory is now the workspace and residence of Ricardo Bofill.
Posted by: TOPHERCONFIDENTIAL
Bofill currently lives and works in The Cement Factory. He believes the cement factory is better than anywhere else, it is the only place where he can concentrate, associate ideas in the most abstract manner, finally creates projects, and constitutes a specific vocabulary for his architecture.
“to be an architect means to understand space, to understand space organized by man, to decipher the spontaneous movements and behavior of people, and to detect the needs of change that they might unconsciously express. It is essential to track down these issues if we want to contribute with our personal work to the history of architecture.” Ricardo Bofill
