Essentially, i'm changing the background in studio to the opposite shade of the subjects hair.
Dark hair = white background and using a multiply layer for the hair.
Light hair = black background and using a screen layer for the hair.
middle ground = grey background and using an overlay layer for the hair.
The trick is to use levels to make sure your blending mode doesn't affect your background at all. When you get this perfect, you don't need to worry about refining masks or any other complex selection technique.
