    It's about time there was a video with clear and excellent step-by step instruction and explanation of masking, especially with complicated masks, like hair. This has been the biggest struggle for me in Photoshop for MANY years. I have watched tons of videos and this is the FIRST one that not only showed me how to really do it correctly, but explained the entire process and functionality of the software. THANK YOU and Cheers!!!

    Wow, this is amazing. Mastering this will solve so many of my problems. As an author who designs her own book covers, I'm rarely able to have my subjects on a solid background as I purchase my images, so masking fine details has been hit and miss (more often miss). This will help the process tremendously. THANK YOU.

Any body not subscribing to your tutorials channel is certainly missing out on 1st class instruction! I applaud you and you deserve all the success it brings you.

    Thank you Jesus Javier. Very good tutorial. One step at a time. Easy to follow. I am a beginner. I feel like you studied first your lecture before delivering it. This is what makes you different from other instructors. Other instructors make mistakes during the demo and they try to correct the mistakes by showing many options how to correct them. There is nothing wrong with that except I lost track of the lecture and gets confused on many options...and most of the time, the lecture takes more time than I expected. Of course, I am talking only about myself and my pace to learn. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
