Photography Question

older color on photo


I am trying to take an older 80's retro-style picture. Any ideas on getting that washed out or worn look of color on a photo? I have Photoshop CS and was wondering about filters or levels. Think 80's rock band picture! Thank you! :)

  Washed out how?
You can desaturate to fade colors.

  go to Hue ? Saturation and boost up on the lighten controll. the old 70-80's shots seemed to lack alot of contrast so you can lower that too.
