Darkening grey hair

[southcoastsounds]

My wife has not seen me with dark hair for many years and would like her memory refreshed (let's forget about the wrinkles for now). Can anyone tell me a simple way of taking a photograph of myself and changing my hair back to brown please?

Many thanks, Tom

Hi Tom. If you are a subscriber, there's a video tutorial that shows how to change hair color. The videos are organized by date in the subscriber area, and it is dated 11/07/03 and titled Change Color. Hope that helps.

Here's one thats real simple, just to let her see it.
Select the hair, either, magic wand, lasso, or selection brush (your choice.)
Place on its own layer (ctrl+j)
Then from the menu at top, enhance> adjust color> hue /sat. check colorize.
Play with the little sliders,

When I first read your thread, I was thinking why not just do the shampoo hair color:confused: Maybe, I first thought that, as my "gray's" are getting a real adjustment tomrrow:p

Here is a picture I colored using the color replacement brush. The hardest for me is selecting the hair.
