Perfect. 🙂

Anyways, seriously... I tried using the magic wand but I can't get the bits and pieces of the hair. Any tips on that?

After cutting out a general shape, try using the polygonal lasso tool. It can be pretty accurate if you put the time in to it.

Don't use the magic wand. For this I did quick mask.

OK, I'll stop. I was almost done, but you got it good as well. When you want to pull stuff like this from an image, you want to do a mask. It's the easiest way, then you inverse it, copy it, and paste it to a transparant background.

Although your hair looks good, masking it sucks!

Masking is great. The contrast between the hair and background basically isn't even there though, so it kinda gives some problems. I dunno if you have a graphics tablet or not, but masking is a cinch with one. Just paint the thing on. 😛
