| Not sure exactly what you want but here goes (using Photoshop CS2)... 1. Select her hair using the method you are most comfortable with (I used quick-mask and then saved the selection). 2. With hair selection active (and not in quick mask mode) I went to Layer > New Adjustment Layer > Hue/Saturation. 3. Click OK. In next window, click the box to select colorize. Play around with the sliders until you have the color you want. Click ok when done. 4. To make the hair a bit more natural you can then dodge and burn some highlights back into the hair. Here's my example, please forgive the sloppiness, I did it using my laptop's touchpad. Kerry |

| hey stopa, here's my attempt. 1. hue/saturation level (check colorise) 2. set level to multiply 3. add mask and brush in the hair 4. adjust hue/saturation level to match color your looking for |

| This is really scruffy cos I'm at work and I only have GIMP here I selected the colour sample you provided, created a new layer and set the blend more to colour and painted over the hair Being blonde, it was a little bright so I duplicated the original and set the blend mode to multiply, then masked out everything but the hair. If its too bright still, repeat the multiply step - if its too dark, adjust opacity of multiply layer. |

| Ok... this is mine. I think i's very important for the hair to look realistic, not just colorized. Let me know if you wanna hear the steps. |

| Hi Stopa. I made a gradient from the supplied colours and applied a gradient map to the hair and then changed the blending mode to Multiply. (but color and overlay look fine as well) Hope this helps. Ken. |

| Maybe something like that? I didn't do the hair ends properly, just a quick draft... I think the color is awful, though, and doesn't match her complexion and lipstick shade at all. |

But I'm sure many people wouldnt consider that to be 'realistic'. Given that, as this thread as shown, deep red can be interpretted as anything from bright ginger to brown with a 50p 'shaders' dye job, I chose the colour sample provided at the top of the image (well I assume thats what it was for). Natural and realistic are not the same thing, most of the posts in this thread I would class as realistic (aside from quick and sloppy masking) though few look 'natural'. This monitor isnt callibrated so maybe it will look different at home but yours looks like a cheap temporary dye on brunette hair thats gone a little pink (and were the roots intentional |

| stopa, glad to help - it's really simple using the hue/saturation/mask method becuase you can go from "natural" to "realistic" to "exagerated" jsut by playing around with the colorisation slider - i've attached four samples of variations. |

| Label under water go into Lab mode, mask out the hair, then play with the a & b channels for the color...then play with the L channel for the tone. Did this in like a min or 2. hope this helps. |
