Press Ctrl C,

 

And Going To The File Menu Ctrl N New

Layer 1 Is Brought Above Layer 2

Right Now I Will Multiply It By What I Have Selected In Layer 1 Multiply And

Press Ctrl M And Open The Curve

I Make A New Curve Adjustment Layer Above Layer 1,

 

I Do That Clipping Mask And Increase Highlight

As Long As I Want The Details Of The Hair

I Am Keeping Its Value As Much.

And Then By Selecting The Layer Mask

Select The Brush Tool And Do Masking

Select Black Color On The Foreground Color And Masking

I Don't Require Many Highlights Here

Take A New Layer And Fill Color

And Pick The Background Color Behind The Hair

And Toggle It Onto The Background,

 

Whatever Color Is Selected, Keep It In The Background Color

After Doing So, I Select The Background To Erase The Tool

Keep The Setting As It Is

The Last One Is The Background Swatch,

Increase Brush Tolerance,

First, You Work On Low Tolerance, Only Then Increase It.
