Re: Facial hair

If you're looking for a quick solution I'd suggest you to duplicate your layer, set it's mode to "Lighten" (if the hair is dark) or "Darken" (if it's bright) and just move the layer a bit up and to the left. After that duplicate that layer again and move it to the opposite direction. Put both of these layers in a group and mask in just the "shave".
Hope that helps

Btw.: For a high end retouch you should use julianmarsalis' method or shave your model before you shoot ;-)
