I'm trying to mask the fine hair using photoshop CC 2017 and watched several youtube videos about how to solve this problem by select and mask.

But as the following pictures show, it's very difficult to remove the background which has similar color with hair color.

I would like to know the solution and great technique for this problem.

Thank you in advance for your great help.

It is not always possible perfection is a dream. Fake it. If you can not find a way to produce contrast between the hair and background perfection is not possible

So do I have to compromise on masking hair and the first picture is only what I can do as of now ?

I'm wondering about what the best solution is to clip fine hair.
