There are many ways to pick out the hair. Here we mainly explain the method and effect of using the extraction filter.
01. Open the image and press ctrl+j twice to get layer 1 and a copy of layer 1.
02. Click on the red circle to create a new layer. Get layer 2. Place this layer between layer 1 and the background layer and fill it with color. Green is filled here as a test effect and a new background layer.
03. Execute the filter-extract command on layer 1.
04. We can see that the highlights of the extracted hair are translucent.
05. The translucent part reveals the new background color. This is the purpose of this post about hair melting into the background color.
06. In the copy of layer 1, click on the red circle, add a mask, and use a black brush to paint a new background other than the character's main body and hair. Use a 50% gray brush to paint the hair.
07. Refer to the general situation of smearing in the mask.
08. Change the background to another color to see the effect.
