Fixing Roots & Hair Color in Photoshop: Have you ever wondered how to easily adjust the color of roots or even the color of hair in Photoshop? This tutorial will help you out.

I recently had a client who had requested for me to fix her roots. Here’s a quick five minute fix:
First, select the Dodge tool at 9% and go over the roots.
Second, select the Healing Brush tool in color mode, unaligned and color the roots the same color as the rest of her hair by brushing over them.
Voila!

OMG ! I was just saying last night I needed an action to remove the gray hair and viola !! you are awesome Jodi =)
Amazing!!!!!!! Love it!
Awesome
I love photoshop!!!
this is awesome. I'm going to try it on a recent session I did. My client surprised her mother with a family session. Mom was thrilled but was a little unprepared. Hopefully this will help!
Where was this LAST week? I had to figure something out all on my own, and I'm sure your technique will work better!

Great tip! I also like to use the burn tool for “hair repair” for adult men with dark/black hair–sometimes their white scalp shows through and a quick/light burn makes their dark hair look fuller. I did this on a headshot of my 36-year old Uncle without telling him & he said “my hair looks great, can you do whatever you did to all my headshots you took?”
Seriously? It’s that easy???
Using the healing brush in color mode, awesome! Thanks for teaching me something new today!
Healing brush in color mode – what? Ohhhhhh, the possibilites!
