You were right on when you said "This is HUGE." Thanks again!

[@EugeneOneguine]

After many experiments with hair recolouring, I eventually got to a similar technique, but mine was so convoluted ! This is much, much simpler. Perfect precise tutorial.

[@phlearn]

We're happy we were able to help! keep phlearning! 💪

[@naritcom]

Thank you, Aaron, that was cool and it's something a lot of us would have struggled with. I also enjoy these short tutorial more than the longer ones, might have something to do with my attention span.

[@frankcich1423]

Aaron, this is the best tutorial I've seen about removing edge fringe, and you're the first person to explain the purpose of a clipping mask. Thank you!

[@bala1000mina]

Always a pleasure to learn from you, thank you so much Aaron!

[@lovisalarsson7615]

Oh my god. That’s so easy and SMART! Love this episode, great stuff!

[@ClaudiosCollection]

WOW! I was stressing out yesterday because I didn't know how to do this! Time to go back and re-edit my photos properly! Thanks!

[@williamcolbert996]

I love your easy to follow instructional videos! Thank you for posting.

[@VideoGizmology]

Exactly what I need to know for my next project. Thanks for this short tutorial. Very efficient and fast.

[@hellselement]

Super helpful. One of my biggest problems with editing photos of people is their hair. I'll try this when I get home!

[@Kamikazefreak1987]

Aaron, i totally love your videos. You're such an amazing teacher! Watching your tutorials is always a pleasure for me! Thank you for all your effort! Love this channel!

[@darcybrown7369]

Great and easy tip thanks Aaron - you keep knocking it out the park! One thing I think we could have done with, is a close-up of the results of the last clipping mask as compared to the Hue one, the final result looked great but even on full screen monitor it wasn't visually clear what difference that last layer made, though appreciate the theory and overall result.

[@PreschoolPlay]

mind blown. this is brilliant!!! Thank you so much, so much easier than messing with color channels which still scare me.

[@mayavichy4987]

You never cease to amaze

[@SuperGarilla]

Awesome, thank you for the concise and helpful lesson!

[@verynormalgirl]

oh my god thank you SO MUCH!!! for the past 3 months i’ve been using the eraser tool to erase every bit of fringing around every individual hair and you just saved me from ever doing that again!!!

[@leebarnes9486]

thank you for getting straight to the point! love it

[@SergejKarssen]

Awesome! Phlearned something new today!

[@tatumgraphic6732]

Thank you Phlearn I have been trying to find something that works for all cut outs. You are my man thank you so much.

[@duncanlawler6426]

So simple Aaron. Thank you.

[@root9065]

Big fan of your channel and long time subscriber. Learned so much from you and every time I open any video I find something new! Thank you for putting this amazing content together!

[@dlsweigert]

Nice. I had found the updated refine edge tool a bit difficult to get used to, this technique is a great idea.

[@MTaylorUS]

Thanks for this tutorial. Others have suggested using the Hue and Saturation tool to fix this problem, but that didn't work for me after hours of trying. Your elegant and simple solution did the trick. I'm glad I found your channel.

[@steph6832]

you are THE BEST teacher. I love your videos. Thank you!

[@cooleshaka]

Hey Aaron, thanks for this essential tutorial. I use another technique where I use the blur tool on the Mask that makes the edges fuzzier seem to fit better into the background and completely removes the fringing. What are your thoughts on this, am I doing it the right way?

[@tempusfugit13579]

Aaron...love your tutorials, and thanks for them. I know this vid is older, but one thing I noted was that while your layers blend mode is set to Hue, your brush tool is set to Overlay. Any specific reason for that?

[@writerXllmwx]
