Cut Out Hair FAST Photoshop Tutorial

[@artisancreations8766]

It's really "quick and easy" when you have a easy background and it's already pre-selected.

[@IRedpunk]

Aye it’s far more easier with a plain background, but with an actual background it’s far more complex

[@ricardourroz9322]

I agree with one comment below. Doing a cut out from an almost pure white background it´s one of the easiest thing to do, and more with that deep black hair. Bad example, sorry.

[@jetzee6654]

agree

[@correiodozac]

And it's not fast. For white background select and mask or refine edge is much faster.

[@franslam7398]

You need to type in specifics for that kind of tutorial. Specifically videos that target cutting out hair from busy backgrounds.

[@HilarioBacar]

Bad Example.. i agree

[@MarkBailey1972]

I think he just wanted to give the basis of how to do it. Using a busy background for this tutorial would require a lot of detailed instructions that wouldn't work well with a tutorial. I used his method with a image that had a busy background busy background and just added on what I already knew and it worked out fine. Some of the things he mentioned I would have never thought of trying before.

[@deejbyrd]

I've been using Photoshop for close to 20 years and never bothered how to properly cut out hair, because I never really needed it like I did til today. You just made today's project at work possible for me and in a timely manner to boot! To the complainers that say it's a bad example because it's dark hair on white background --- the same concepts are going to apply, you just might have to take extra steps in masking certain areas or additional work to get your contrast right. Besides, a good cutout means starting with the right photo and not all photos are going to work well. That's just life. Pick one that works.

[@babulaas]

Easy with a white background. The work is already 90% done if you have a white background. The cut out will be peanuts then. But this is a good tutorial to explain some basic stuff

[@HeartSoulLeake]

We think that this was more about refining the the mask to offer a resolution to the problem of those fine hairs that basic masking dose not easily fix. But, we have seen several great way to skin a cat. This just happens to be one of them.

[@carrieharris1910]

It's 2021, and about to roll over into 2022. This is THE BEST hair cutout tutorial on KZbin. Not convoluted, clear directions and not to talky. THANK YOU!

[@stevenskadal]

This is exactly what I needed. I work with a lot of stock photos like this and was having a difficult time getting the perfect masking on hair. And ignore the negative comments below. You showing how to use channels for masking just gives the designer another tool to use to achieve that perfect selection. Thanks for the tip!

[@ForeverDansky]

You're welcome Steven! Thanks for the support

[@sclmb]

I've seen many vids that use this masking method, but what you did by adding a new layer which samples from below and using clone stamp to cover the "halo" was brilliant. Thanks!

[@Hyperdriveuk]

These tutorial troll me pretty hard. I've yet to see one where the background is NOT a solid colour. Solid colour BG's are relatively easy. I want to see what people do for more complex back grounds.

[@VIDEOMAKER-vx7oc]

Nice Dansky...I"m almost back...but na hour everyday in Photoshop and Illustrator with you teaching is wonderful... thank you again ! Rogerio

[@antoniolegaspi7988]

God bless this man making my professional life much easier

[@ForeverDansky]

Thanks so much Antonio :)

[@BobGamble]

Awesome. Best I've seen that makes it possible to do this on my own without getting lost by all the technical details.

[@Leo-kl1dh]

I loved it. The last part, with the clone stamp tool, was the cherry on the top. I already had a few ways to mask hair with good results, but it never occurred to me that I could use the clone stamp like that there. Thanks a lot, kind fella!

[@akmalburkhanov6878]

i haven't seen the whole video yet, but man im telling you got the simplest and most wonderful explanation of ptc i ever watched on youtube, keep it up, lucks!

[@HorrorbleGamer]

I think this was the best solution I've come across. Thanks for saving my skin!

[@ForeverDansky]

Awesome! You’re very welcome! 🙂

[@HorrorbleGamer]

@@ForeverDansky I got more work along these lines and had to come back to this video lol, saved my life twice now!

[@HorrorbleGamer]

@@ForeverDansky Yep, saved me again, for the THIRD TIME!

[@MissNolver]

Although I'm a fervent Corel Paint Shop Pro user, I learn so many techniques from videos using Photoshop. In time, I would like to learn mastering Adobe Photoshop as well. Thank you so much for the video!

[@MichelleDiepbrink]

I was always looking for a good tutorial for cutting out hair, so glad you made this and explained it so easily! Thanks!

[@gudivibes]

I saw a lot of people saying that it was not a good Video. For me it was awesome, of course my pictures are with a white background as well, thank you very much sir!

[@Kporterphotography]

This was amazing. I just had a super "fuzzy headed" client who I needed to do a headshot background swap with and was having the darndest time. Followed the steps and it worked perfectly. Thank you!

[@lancevb9343]

I've watched a lot of videos with the same topic as one got, but surely this is the most useful and the best video in category of cutting out images with hairs in PS

[@Connor_Dempsey]

Great tutorial. For other viewers, this is just one method, called Channel Pulling and Dansky did a great job of demonstrating Channel Pulling. It can be used for other types of cutouts other then hair. You will still need to learn the various selection methods depending on the situation. Such as, use the pen tool (pro method) for cutting out the body or quick selection tool (hobbyist method).

[@johnparungao6844]

Had a project due EOD today and your video was a HUGE help at the office! Subbed!

[@user-gz3yt9wg7s]

Great video mate! I would like to see you do this on a non unicolour background, as I always have trouble with that. Again great toturial 😉

[@gsaroberts]

Anders Kiilerich these are done to increase his ads and he only replies back to plp that say nice tut only lol

[@shyakaguilheim2970]

Thanks Dansky as always its a good and educating tutorial

[@michallysko679]

Thank you very much. You just saved my project!

[@ForeverDansky]

Glad I could help Michal!

[@dstanl]

Use overlay blend mode on the brush in the mask so you don’t have to be careful at the edges

[@LoisCroft]

Best video ever for cutting out hair. Thank you

[@arthurviber]

You're such a life saver!

[@kccentrale8589]

This is the easiest, clearest and fastest technique tutorial I've found on KZbin! Thank you! Indeed very helpful! 👍🏻

[@bibibibi4303]

Thanks man, i save a lot of time following your tutorial. Bless you

[@TajinderSinghjosan]

Man You are a genius LOVE it

[@MyMomDrank]

I also find that combining techniques: this channel selection method, and then the typical "select and mask" method on a duplicate layer have also served me well.

[@Dan-the-man2714]

This was an amazing tutorial - has worked so well - thanks!

[@SHRAVANKUMAR-vs8jd]

you are really crazy bro! you have shown me the perfect video tutorial i am looking for thanks a lot!

[@mirceadinu2186]

It is easy to do this when the portrait is on a plain background. But how can I remove the background if it is on a multicolored landscape? Congratulations for the tutorial, we always have something to learn!

[@ilariamast]

The only way i can say thank you more than just with words is by subscribing! Great tutorial, after 2 hours of research, you saved me!

[@furleysbrain]

LOVE this clone stamp technique for the frays. Never thought of that

[@D.A-Designs]

[@chguu]

Thanks so much for this tutorial. Seen many tutorials from basic to advanced but for beginners like me you explain the small but important details, Eg Brush tool,Size, hardness etc. The important part for the finish. where other tutorials don't and hair looks smudged when painted. SO thanks for this great tutorial. A*****

[@ecomarketofficial]

Thank you for this video. What technique would you use to cut out sneakers-product shot?

[@ForeverDansky]

Hey good question! I would use the Pen Tool for most product shots, and have a few tutorials for this on my Photoshop playlist 👍

[@arjuna8ayoutificatio]

much much appreciation of your kindness. Your precise and consistent explanations and tutorial made me enjoyed whilst I could follow your clear instructions giving a perfect result. Sooo great! Have a great and gratitude week ahead

[@hoodie427]

I've been trying to learn a technique for this forever, have tried many tutorials that never worked. THIS one worked! thank you! The only thing I'm finding is my background, instead of being white/clear, has a grey tone to it, which gets darker the lower down on the photo you go. I can't figure out how to remove that so I have a clear/transparent background (I'm very novice).

[@urduskill63]

Very good explain about complex background removing.

[@emmawilliams3823]

Fab tutorial !!! Just what I needed!
