Cut Out Dark Hair from Dark Background in Photoshop!

If selecting hair in Photoshop wasn't infamous enough, imagine how notorious it can be to select hair where there is no contrast between the hair and the background! Yes, we are talking about masking either dark hair on a dark background or lighter hair on a bright background. Is it possible? Definitely! There is hope here.
In this tutorial, we will learn how to manually cut out beautiful hair no matter what the situation or the background conditions are. Using advanced hair brushes, we will learn how to actually paint back the hair edge, and then with other varieties of dense and open brushes, we will make the hair masking look natural and realistic.
In addition to that, we will also paint actual hair to add more depth and volume. I hope this video helps you. Thank you so much for watching :)

    Can I just say that this channel is incredible? I've been in the industry for over a decade and just by watching a few videos, I've gained so much new knowledge, tricks of the trade, and amazing shortcuts. All of Unmesh and PI's video are made with so much apparent care, lucidity and passion - they really are a delight to watch. Thank you Piximperfect!

U can also reduce saturation of the img form dark parts with hue adjustment layer for little bit realistic tone. If there is a sunny background manualy remove sun and extreme highlighted areas or just replace the sky itself. 👍 With this ur base day to night compostie will be ready. Offcourse u can keep tweaking it until it's perfect

    Great i know you've made a video about this in the past Also I'd just like to mention there's almost always color cast from the background on the hair. The same color that we want to extract when masking out to the point sometimes we need to choose another image? Yeah. It can be even more realistic to bring it back, but this time we can to it separately and always shift the hue unlike a flat image
