I agree Artwel, and what you can do with the human face is just extreem (that almost invisible Mona Lisa-ish little smile) and your version of 05.08 in Steve's book Art & Design in Photoshop:

That's very good Emy, and very convincing.

Brewell beat me to it!

What a lovely looking girl - it seems a shame to change her (as brilliant as the entries have been) - anyway here is my offering - a punky nature fairy with a flowery 'fro

I also agree that Olivia looks great with a shaven head - but she has certainly got some great new hair styles to choose from.

Good selection of entries and they work well.
I agree she looks fine with shaved head and saves a lot on hair products & maintenance. I know!

My quick attempt...

Thanks Sjef, but this is not just based on my photoshop but chalk/PITT drawing I made. Very quick. Just three "colours" black graphite + burnt sienna, natural white (chalk) and natural sienna which gives the colour. Just earth colours and they will last for very long time. I had to merge the two..... photoshop all the way then ....

Oh dear I've forgotten to apply the drop shadow to the hand/pliers. Never mind!

Re: Challenge 466: Hair today
A dramatic style from Garfield72 started this week's entries, well blended into the head. It's a strong look - I think she might like it!

Sjef has gone for a detailed scorpion shaved into the already-shaved head - are there razors fine enough to do that level of detail? A neatly removed nose ring, but I don’t thing that earring matches her features!

A classic style from Sophie - but remember that hair has bulk! You have it much too tight on her head, which makes her face look as if it's too large for her head.

A neat approach from Ben Mills, with a very tidy, swept-back look. But I'm not sure she'd go for that 1970s eye shadow...

Splendid work from Frank - what a dramatic style this is! Absolutely appropriate for her extrovert personality!

A lot of hair from Ant Snell, with a complex suit and hat to match. But is her head now too small for the body?

Detailed styling from Linda Eckert, with a very appropriate look. Is it too soft over the forehead and cheek? Perhaps a few stray strands of hair are needed?

Some rather fine horticulture from brewell - a good look. Does it require much watering?

Haute couture from Vibeke, with a very stylised design - very neat work with that fine hair - and a new body to go with it. I see you've given her a little cosmetic enhancement as well...

A complete makeover from Artwel, with new eye makeup and a new shirt. Very well fitted hair - I like the way it tucks behind her ear.

A touch of soft-focus Hollywood glamour from tooquilos, with a very effective look. A fantastic set of extra choices in the animated version - and what a great tool that would be! You should go into iPad app design...

A spiky look from Mariner - very 1980s! And great fitting of that fine hair over the face, expertly achieved. But is the head a little too small for the body?

A beautiful hand-drawn effect from ahmedalij, with nicely detailed features - and a variation in colour in the second entry (although I think I prefer the first). Good to see you back, Ahmed.

A neat schoolgirl look from Emy, with close fitting hair: but is the hair too far back on her head? Something about it makes it a little awkward, its hard to pin down. And yes, I did get Olivia's permission!

I think Olivia would thoroughly approve of Josephine Harvatt's entry, especially with the new purple lipstick and the added skin decoration - a very complete image!

Classical neatness from Deborah Morley, perfectly achieved - I like the way the hair falls over the face, it's most appealing. And thoroughly convincing, too.

A couple of 1920s looks from joeysala, both suiting Olivia well. I like the spider/cobweb combination!

A close-fitting style from Jota120, and one that suits the shape of her head perfectly. Most appealing, Trevor. And a dramatic second entry - good chalk effect!

Glossy hair from Marlcliff, with an interesting shadow over the face. But can you take a head-on hair style and apply it sideways like that?

It seems michael sinclair doesn't approve of Olivia's facial adornments - ouch! And do you really think she'd make a good nun?

Very entertaining images this week. And many thanks to Olivia for the use of her shapely head!
