Gamut extension algorithm transforms a picture to display in wide gamut, exerting a good performance. However, human skin color belongs to static color, if extended, it would look unnatural and affect the beauty of the image. So we presents an algorithm for protecting skin color during color gamut extension. Firstly, we initially identify skin color regions. Then, according to probabilistic model, a new method that we use it to avoid looking hair as face skin with similar color. Experimental results demonstrate that our proposed method does protect skin color and improve performance.
