COLORIZING BEARD AND REMOVING MARKS ON FACE

  STEP ONE

  In this picture we change the color of the beard and remove the marks/moles   on the face. First make sure that the layer panel is open if not then press F7 to open it.  First duplicate the background layer (CTRL+J).  Select the clone stamp tool and select a soft brush tool of 45 pixels.

                                                                  

 

















 

 

 STEP TWO

 Press Alt+Click (the Alt which is on the left side of the key board) on the hairs to select a pattern of black hairs (from the place which is shown in the figure) and then click on the white hairs in the beard so that the beard becomes black.  Do the same on all white hairs till they become black. But it is not looking real to add reality on it decrease the opacity level to 60% so that the color in the beard looks more realistic.  

 

 STEP THREE

  Now duplicate the background layer then keep the background layer invisible. Then merge the visible layers (layers/merge visible or short key Shift+Ctrl+E but make sure that the background layer remains invisible).

 

 

 

  STEP FOUR

  Now after merging the background copy layer and background copy 2 we have  one layer background copy 2 again duplicate this layer so it become background copy 3 layer. Now we work to remove the marks, moles and black spots in the face. There are two tools clone stamp tool and patch tool for doing this select the patch (make sure that the caps is off). To remove the black spot encircle them then click and drag them and drop them to a place where there is no spot then press Ctrl+d for deselect. Do the same with all the black spot, moles and marks on the face then the picture become as such

 

       

                                                  

 In first figures I encircle the black spot then I drag it and drop on the place where the second circles are and in the third figure the spot is removed. Do the same with all the moles and marks on the face.
