Extreme Makeover- Hollywood

For this Hollywood makeover, I turned my glasses into sunglasses by outlining the glasses with the lasso tool and giving them a black gradient than increasing the stroke of the layer to give the sunglasses a black frame. I also used the rubber stamp tool to cover up any blemishes and inconsistencies in the photo. After that, I cut out the background using all three lasso tools to make sure I don’t select too much or too little, and then deleted the background, replacing it with a photo from Google images. To match this background and fit the Hollywood theme, I then changed the color of my hair, making it more blond and vibrant by selecting my hair with the lasso tools and adjusting the color balance of the selected area. I did the same thing with my sweater, making it red instead of grey. To make the layers blend better and make the image look more like one single piece, I used the blur and smudge tool to make the layers go together better and get rid of anything that stuck out too much.
