How to easily remove stray and flyaway hairs from your portraits in Photoshop

 

 

If you take many portraits, then flyaway and stray hairs are going to be something you will need to deal with on a regular basis. No matter how much time and effort goes into preparing someone's hair for a shoot, it'll often still be the case that hairs get loose and cover up part of the face or fly off into the background. With Photoshop, it is quite easy to deal with them.

In the video below, Nathaniel Dodson of tutvid shows us how to utilize a neat feature of Photoshop's healing brush to remove flyaway hairs in your photos. The process is completely non-destructive too, so don't worry about making mistakes or irreversibly altering your image.
