Extracting Hair!!!!!!

So I have a few methods for extracting hair from a background. Of course, it all depends on the shot as to what method I use, but I was wondering how many other ways are there for extracting hair? Do you use channels, calculations, color range or any of the other many ways to do this?
Personally, I'm a fan of using calculations on a channel. You have a lot of room to play with in this, you can choose which channel, which blending mode to use on it, adjust with curves or levels or whatever you want.
If you haven't used 'calculations' to make a layer mask, give it a shot, maybe it'll work for you. And really, what's the worst that can happen?!
