No one told me I should do the hair separately before, I used to do the whole masking with the hair over and over again to make it better. Thank you ❤️

You're welcome, George! No one told me either. I had to figure it out 😂🤣
Way to go Jesús. I loved the video. The two-step process makes so much sense now that I've seen it. And as for the minimize filter, DUH, I've spent so much time messing with modifying selections and this makes it so much easier. Thank You!
I used to cut out my subject in one go, but since watching your tutorials I now do it in two parts. Thank you Jesus
I can't thank you enough. I am a beginner and struggle with a lot of PS techniques. I spend a lot of time photographing dogs so hair is always an issue that i have never managed well. Your help is invaluable. Thank you!
Ahhh, thank you for this! I've always been bad with extracting a subject from a background, even a more solid one. I'm going to try it out!
Brilliant! Best explanation of manual edge refinement I have seen so far. Thank you for explaining the principles behind it. With that explanation, I am able to apply the technique even in CS6.
I was always confused about the hair selection. After watching this video, I finally realized that the global refinements also affact the hair selection a lot. The two step process is really an efficient way. Thank you!

You're welcome!
Just working on a black backdrop cutout for my newborns photos. This is going to help so much ❤️
This channel is by far the best Photoshop tutorial channel i've found in KZread. And I have looked at many.
This has been delivered 3 years ago, i found it useful even today as a new comer to the photoshop community, i actually had fun trying to comprehend how masks work after watching this video, practiced for hours, and i think i got the hang of it now, thanks !
Always learning from the best

Thank you, Mohamed!
Fantastic: comprehensive but succinct delivery of powerful techniques and easy to use tips every time. PTC never disappoints! And, no I had not realized how to do this two step technique in that one could go back in an do another refinement like that. Thanks for linking to the Adobe Stock Image too, was great to follow along with the exact same photo. Thank you! :)
I knew this was worth watching again to really get it. Your notes were so useful. I was able to add my own additional notes as I went through the tutorial. I got it. Thanks!
Thanks buddy for another great tutorial! You explain everything very clear so its not hard to follow. A couple of years ago when i started watching your photoshop tutorials i wasnt able to catch up. During the lockdown i also watched over 200 hours of phlearn pro tutorials. I am now recognizing steps well and able to make good selections. Its awsome
Great tutorial. I had always worked on hair separately from body before, but you have given me new methods on how to do this. Thanks.
You are the best, I love all your tutorials. I am looking forward to seeing you work with all the new updates in PS2020. Thank you for all you do for those of us always learning from your expertise.

Thank you, Renee! I appreciate that!
Very helpful, thank you! Enjoy all your tutorials.
Just found JR and his training videos last week for new Photoshop 2020 new. Great training style and information from an obvious master. Subscribed and will be watching more posted and new training videos.
I wish I could give you an Award for this trick. Thank you so much. You saved a lot of time. I will meet you someday for these saved times.
You have made cutting out hair so much easier for me now. Thank you for the wonderful rundown of what to do!
Thanks for another informative video. The two step process is genius. I've watched a lot of refine edge videos and never really understood the radius function. You have really cleared up a lot of confusion for me.
The best description of this process I have seen. Thank you!
This two step method is really great. I was always trying to do a balancing act with my global refinements, but now I see that is not necessary. Thanks!
As usual, one of the best tutorials on the net. Thank you, sir.
FINALLY! Thank you for making such a stellar tutorial for masking hair.
so many good tips to take away... I never knew that was how the edge refinement tool worked. That's a game changer for me. Thx!!!
Jesus thank you so much, this is by far the Best ADOBE training on online especially KZread. Your teaching skills are perfect. Your "behind the scenes" explaination of how the Adobe Ai works was great. It really helped me to understand more about what happens. I am only a beginner but with your help, I am learning fast. Right now, I am using my knowledge to create product photos and this video helped tremendously.
Your basic system is GREAT - clear, concise and very effective - thanks!
I really like your two-step method of masking! It works so much better!
Best tutorial, teacher and channel I've found so far (I've watched a thousand). Amazing job.
Love your 2 step process Jesus. I normally mask hair separately but using two masks, one for the hair, one for the rest of the subject. I then merge them later. Your method is much better, I'll start doing it this way going forward 👍
2-step process is genius! Thank you!
The amount I’ve learned watched your videos is crazy. Amazing
This tutorial also teaches a very good method of eliminating/reducing fringes or hallows around the masked image(s); the minimum/maximum filters... ThanX again...
I find your two step method very helpful, Thank you
Thanks again for another great tutorial; you make Photoshop feel easy!
Thank you so much for the tutorial, it has helped me so much in more ways than one.
Very well explained with enhanced video zoom and clear description of where to go and what to do each time you make the edits sir. Very well done and Thank you!
One of the best tutorials! God bless you! All of you!
Simple steps, great result! Thank you so much!!!
This was so helpful! Thanks for the two step method! 👍🏻
love this!!!
Thank you for your tutorials. I need help learning understanding how to select objects and your tutorial has really helped me big time. Thank you. Nick.
Thanks Jesus, finally some understanding of those sliders!
Well, finally I think I understand select and masking, thanks to your help and this informative video. You're the best!! 3000+Thank yous!
Thanks for making this easier for me! Very much appreciated! Thank you!
Thank you very much! Didn't know that better to do hair separately 🙌
Thank you for sharing. Have taken careful notes of your methods.
So helpful thanks
TOTALLY THE BEST!!
Thanks again for a great tutorial!!
Very helpful! Thanks.
Excellent tutorial! Thanks for sharing. At the 9:55 mark, you begin painting over the areas of hair that should remain hidden to the background; I've found doing this type of edit to be easier using Mask view mode. This lets you quickly see the grey, transparent areas that have been cut into the image by the refine edge tool.
Always thank you!
¡Gracias! first time I see two-step method. It's chévere!
Hey man, this is sooooo handy, thanks! 👏🏼 🙌🏼👏🏼 🙌🏼
So helpful! You are such a great teacher!
This really helped a lot, thank you for making this!!
Thanks Jesus...one of the best tutorials on selecting using the new select and mask tools in PS.
Amazing tutorial. This is going to save me so much time. Thank you!
Always like your videos!!! Ad free. Thanks mate!

You're welcome, JP November!
Just what I was looking for. Thanks, Jesús!
You just make it so easy but going slow and repeating when it is necessary to give a better understanding for the process. Thanks

Thanks for this video!!!!!
Short and informative! Thanks a lot!
the 2 steps method really gave a ''plus'' to my extractions: thanks !!!
It's inspiring...awesome channel 😘😘
These videos are great!!!
It is very good learning from this tutorial that we shall use different edge refinement adjustments for the hair and rest of the image.... In fact this idea becomes very handy and useful for the objects which response differently with different edge refinement adjustments... we shall use different refinement adjustments for different types of edges of the object.... ThanX
thank you so much for this amazing tutorial
Thanks for this video.
Awsome. Thanks!!
