"Hair should be done now through greyscales or blondes. But it sounds radical and scary to some. But with nodes you can make any hair texture greyscale."
Hair "should" be done exactly the way each user preferrs. This has nothing to do with being scared or obstinacy like you so arrogantly assume, but different personal workflows and efficiency.
There are many ways leading to Rome, and some are actually faster than others.
Many thanks for the tutorial to delete the highlights in Photoshop, bagginsbill.
Worked like a charm.
But instead of wasting my time tweaking a gazillion nodes and waiting for FireSnail to finish a Render, I instead spent 1 minute turning the grayscale into a proper blonde texture in IrfanView , which does IMO a better job doing such simple things than PS. ;-)
