Change Hairstyles, Hair Colors and Hair Extensions with Photoshop

Last week my best friend's girlfriend was angry because she'd had a terrible hair cut. Not only did they screw the hair color but also cut more hair than desired.

I told her not to worry,that she let me take some pictures of her (she had gone to buy new clothes too so it was the perfect occasion). So my friend and his girlfriend sit next to me in front of the computer and started to play a little bit with Photoshop. The results were amazing. She could barely believe what we had just done.

So these are three tutorials that will show you how you can change hairstyles using Adobe Photoshop

, and also tips to change the hair color and make it look longer.

Changing Hairstyles with Photoshop

What is great about Adobe Photoshop is that

you can cut the face and then use a number of hairstyles that will make the person completely different

. And this is perfect if you want to first check how some hairstyle look on you before going to the saloon.

In this eHow tutorial you will learn the steps to try different hairstyles. All you need is a digital picture and some online images of hairstyles.

Changing the Hair Color

Steve Patterson show us in PhotoshopEssentials the steps to change the color of the hair. The good thing about this 3 page tutorial is that once you are done

you'll be able to change to any color without having to redo the whole process

. I already tried this tutorial using Elizabeth Taylor as the model. After trying blond, red and purple hair I realized that she definitely looks better with black hair. By the way, you can also use this technique to change the eyes color.

Make your Hair Longer or Add Hair Extensions with Photoshop

Of course you can always use some hairstyles but if you want to use your own hair look longer you will find this video to be very useful.

I hope you find these tutorials useful, the same way they've helped me with my own photos.
