Title: Bald
Post by: Atelier on Fri 31/08/2012 18:17:43
I need a little Photoshop help. Anyone know the best way to alter a photo to make someone bald? We're talking pure Grade 0 here.

I've tried the clone stamp tool but find that using portions of a person's forehead makes the result a bit unrealistic, because it disrupts the shadow and is not shiny enough. I've tried practising on Keira Knightly with the clone stamp technique but was wondering whether anybody can suggest another method?

PS. Shaving the subject in real life is impractical.

Edit: practising not practicing

I'd probably google for an actual bald head photographed at a similar angle and use that.

Or, if you have an Android phone, there's a free app on Google store that will automatically take a bald-ified photo using your phone's camera.

Just Google 'Kie Kngtly'.

Ah yeah great idea! If only I had an Android... but maybe I can borrow one. Khris I'll try your idea first, thanks.
