The following is the result of many hours of experimentation... and now that my trash basket is full, I share it with you and challenge you to give it a "go".
Included with this first post is the original "source" brunette image. My results will follow in the next post, along with a tutorial on the technique
that I used.
Thanks, Rick, Gauss & Geoff! I can't wait to see how you all make out with this project!
Gauss, it was only through the same experimentation that you've been going through, that I stumbled onto the white overlay layer! It really brings out the highlights and lightens the darks. I was using pseudo yellows too and was getting very frustrated with my results...and for quite some time.

Soul And Mind, this is done entirely in Photoshop. If you are unaccustomed to any of the terms or techniques involved here, feel free to post a question and one of us will do our best to clarify and help you out!
If you are brand new to Photoshop, I would suggest that you start with some "beginner" tutorials to familarize yourself with the tools, techniques and terminology involved. I can assure you that this is, by no means, a "beginner's tutorial" and I'd much rather see you getting acquainted and comfortable with Photoshop first, before tackling a project like this.
