I absolutely LOVE how clearly and carefully you explain things! So incredibly helpful! I am so grateful for you doing this for the creator community!!
sorry to be offtopic but does anyone know a tool to log back into an instagram account??
I somehow lost the password. I appreciate any help you can give me!
There are several tips to try
take a bath regularly
choose loose clothing.
consume plenty of water and tomato juice.
avoid spicy foods and caffiene.
(I learned these and the reasons they work from Sebs Sweat Blueprint site )
You’re welcome, Pawtrait!
I absolutely LOVE how clearly and carefully you explain things! So incredibly helpful.
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!!!
You’re welcome! ?
This was incredibly helpful! Loved how you referenced the old software tools and the current tools. Most helpful tutorial I’ve seen in a while!
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.
The most comprehensive and detail tutorial…. thank you for your services. You are one of few who truly help educate, motivate and encourage the younger generation of photographers and editors to flourish
My wife and I have been watching your tutorials for a couple of years, they are always informative and helpful, but this one has unlocked a mystery of how this tool works we have always struggled with this, till now ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ please keep them coming. A Big thanks
Pretty clear and concise tutorial. Of course, it will take real time practice to really grasp everything, but we are grateful for the headstart.
Terrific tips, Master R! I’ve used the two layer technique (one for body, the other for hair) before , but never thought of adding that final topmost layer – I really appreciate being schooled on it! ?
Thank you, R Garlin!
When it comes to learning to use Photoshop your videos are the easiest to follow by far. Thank you for considering those of us who aren’t familiar with everything in the program as those who are experts. NEW SUBSCRIBER!
This is amazing!!! You are helping me make my images 150% better! ?
GREAT tutorail–direct and to the point, and so so helpful. THANK YOU!
You’re welcome, Helene!
Have seen lot of videos on select and mask particularly on the selection of hairy areas, but this one helped me to understand the aspects quite well.. And I have started applying on some of my pics already. Thanks a ton.
this deserves over a million views. great tutorial. I like how you went through the different tools and showed how it works.
Thank you, Oladipo!
Amazing tutorial, your tutorials are life savers! Thank you!
Thank you for the helpful tutorial! I appreciated how clearly you indicated how each tool worked independently, then used it on the image. Lasting knowledge! Yay!
The old version works much better. Since PS cc 2018, I find that the refine edge dialogue box is quite inefficient for difficult selections. The one-color BG as you have in your example is an easy selection.
Thank you for all your hard work in sharing knowledge and skills for all of us. We all really appreciate each of your struggles in sharing education, we all are very blessed with all the knowledge and skills you share, because this makes us all have skills and we can developing. Once again, thank you as much as possible.
I for one am grateful that you always include case specific for those of us with older versions of PS.

Thank you very much, Jesus. Your tutorials in general are very useful and this one is no exception.
