This is how I selected his hair.


I first used the Rectangular Marquis Tool to make a selection of his head.

I then copied his head to it's own layer via Cmd/Cntrl + J

Turn off all other layers.

Using an Alpha Channel selection process, I then selected and copied the Green Channel.

I used levels to create as much black and white contrast as possible.

I then used the Dodge and Burn Tools around the hairs details.

Finally I used the Brush Tool.


You have to have a complete black and white layer to use as the selection.

Once done, I used this to make the selection that I added to the layer mask.


This is the layer mask.....
