STEP 15: Click the mask (circled)
on the third Hue/Saturation adjust-
ment layer, choose Edit>Fill, pick
Black from the Contents drop-down
menu, and click OK. This hides
the color from the image. Now
Option-drag (PC: Alt-drag) to copy
that mask to the other two Hue/
Saturation adjustment layers and
then turn on the layer visibility for
all three layers (leave the Levels
adjustment layer turned off for now).
STEP 16: Press B to grab the reg-
ular Brush tool (circled) and in
the Options Bar, use the Brush
Preset Picker to pick a soft-edged
brush set to the size of the hair
area you want to paint (200 pixels
was used here, but try 25 on the
Adobe preview image). Set Opacity
to 50% (also circled). Take a peek
at the color chips at the bottom
of the Toolbar (circled) and press
X so white is on top.
STEP 17: With the mask active on
the Hue/Saturation adjustment
layer (circled), paint repeatedly
down the strands of hair. The more
you brush across the strand, the
more the color will build. If you
reveal too much color, press X to
flip your color chips so black is on
top and then paint back over that
area to conceal the color. BEGINNERS’ WORKSHOPKELBYONE.COM
