Easiest Way to Select or Mask Hair in Photoshop and Change Background in 5 Minutes or Less Using Merely Blend Modes, especially Overlay. Utilizing the Powers of Masking, Curves and Blend Modes, we are not only going to swap backgrounds but also match the subject to the new environment. DOWNLOAD: Practice Image: This technique is effective and applicable to images taken with gray backgrounds. Here's how it works, since overlay is a blend mode which deletes everything which is 50 percent gray if we place the new background just about the subject layer (taken in gray background) and we change the blend mode of the new background to overlay, all the gray will be removed and those gray will be filled up by the gray background of the subject layer and rest will be left out, hence giving you a nice edge, especially for hair. Then, we'll be a little manual soft masking to refine the selection and curves to match the subject to the new background

This guy has some great videos but this is not one of them. Twenty five years experience in Photoshop tells me there are much better ways of doing this. Slower maybe, but better. Blending the hair with the background ( which effectively is whats going on here ) will leave the thinner edges of the hair looking semi transparent. It might work reasonably well on blonde hair or black hair but anything in between, not great. Looks good in the video but get closer and this method looks dodgy.
