Hey guys I'm trying to figure out how to change certain things on an image black and white but leave everything else in color. I've been trying to mess around with the tools but all I end up doing is getting everything on the image to go into black/white shades and what ever else I put in there turns black/white. Can anyone help me out? I'm using Adobe cs5

image > agjustments > black and white. you've got control over all collors there, and you only change the selected layer.
hope that helps

if it's precise, use the sponge tool

Sponge tool? I don't need to have any settings or anything? O_o

use sponge tool on desaturate. Go over the big areas with 50px soft round brush, then use 5px on soft round near the hair for details.

Or you can duplicate, and crop out the hair in the colored version using pen tool.

soft brushing with layers set on color work equally as well.
Or using selective color etc, theres tons of ways to do this
