How can I get my images to look like this in post-processing?
another example (albeit a bit underexposed)
crush the blacks, make blues more cyan
Make hilights cyan
change blues to cyan
fuck with white balance

I have that same car lmao it's a Matrix Gen Corolla
Anyways there's probably a VSCO filter that does exactly the same thing, it's the new tumblr photo craze.
If you want to do it in your favorite editing software just make black tones to an almost grey and then change blues to cyans and there you go.
Various video tutorials on "muting photos" or "hipsterfy your images"

also seen it referred to as "matte"
Look at the image's histogram. You'll want the blacks to be lighter than a value of zero (probably 10-15) and the highlights to be darker than a value of 255 (probably 240).
This will mean that even if there are areas with crushed blacks, the darkest color in the image will only be a very dark one and not anywhere close to black. And even if there are areas with highlight clipping (like on the instrument board of that car), the lightest color will be a very light one and not anywhere close to white.
Then, as >>2731042 said, you'll want to change the highlights to cyan. You can do this by fucking around with the channels, especially by using levels on the channels to increase the blue highlights and then reducing the red a litte bit. Whatever works for the photo.
You'll also want to use a colder white balance. A more blue one.

Now, the most important thing is obviously having the most hipster subject material ever. Just giving ideas for how to do it manually.

there's probably presets in photoshop for this bub
If anything throw it on your phone and VSCO the shit out of it

google curves in photoshop and also white balance in photoshop and crushed blacks in photoshop
they'll likely have screenshots and stuff and it'll be better than trying to explain each ui element over 4chan
