I need to change my hair color to black in a picture. I tried decreasing the saturation to make it black and white but the color is still too light (i have light brown hair). Is there any way I can make it darker or black? |

Hi scotty822, welcome to the forum. I'm pretty sure a picture speaks a thousand words in this case

Changing color with blend modes works better if the lighter areas have some grey added to them, same with black areas. I'd play around with putting a layer under your hair layer and using a Blend mode to let the gray show through Softlight or Overlay maybe. Then use a new layer on top of those 2 and paint your color and set the Blend mode and adjust the Opacity.
If the layers don't play together well, try merging the 2 hair layers and then use the color layer on top of that.
