So here's the situation.

Your really hot pen-pal in Europe has finally sent his or her picture to you and is now asking you to send one of your own as well. Knowing that that old prom pic just won't do, you take your digicam and pose as only a model would, then you download all the shots into your computer. Just as you were about to send off those pictures, something catches your eye: the lack of a hairline.

In the words of Douglas Adams: Don't Panic!

That's because David Nigel has prepared a step-by-step tutorial to help those in a... not-so-hairy situation. By creating a simple custom brush in Photoshop 7, which is pretty much composed of a few squiggly lines, one can create convincing hair and fur effects for those emergency touch-ups. He has also included directions and tips on how to blend the effect with your photo to make it look as convincing and as real as possible.

So, with that problem out of the way, things should be fine. Well, at least until the time that you and your pen-pal decide to meet up, that is.
