  • Publication number: 20220245819
    Abstract: A method for processing images, an electronic device, and a storage medium are provided. A head portrait of a subject is obtained from a camera device. A hair region and a scalp region are identified from the head portrait. A proportion of the scalp region is calculated. The proportion of the scalp region is compared with a preset value, and baldness of the subject is determined accordingly. If found to be bald, complementary color processing is performed by processing the scalp region using a hair color of the hair region, and an updated head portrait is obtained after finishing the complementary color processing. The method automatically detects baldness and supplements the hair color in the scalp region.
