Okay, so, here are some thing I'd recommend doing:

1) Remove the black outlines. I usually do that by bluring them with the rest of the hairstyle. This also makes it easier to make a hairstyle brighter that usual.

2) Smooth out the hairstyle polygons so the hairstyle doesn't look blocky.

3) Play around with faces and skin tones. Move the eyebrows around, give differently-shaped eyes, change the skin colour and the face expressions.

4) If the hairstyle looks compressed (this can happen when you upscale an in-game screenshot for something or use official model renders that use the .jpeg extension, for example) just blur the pixels together.

5) Increase/decrease the hairstyle brightess by using the "Brightness and Contrast" sliders instead of "Hue and Saturation". The former ones let you make the hairstyle look brighter and crispier.

I guess there are more, but these are the ones I can name right now.
