2. Click the Polygonal Lasso Tool: and go around an area in your picture, selecting what you want to add color to first (e.g. hair)
3. Create a new layer and set it to Color.
4. That area should still have a floating dotted line. Then, click on your brush tool:
5. Make sure it's set to a normal round brush and change your color palette to the color you want the area to be. Start coloring!
