1. great tutorial
   Can we download the image used for this tutorial.
   I have tried to download the brushes but get the message ,unable to expand “ptc-hair-brushes.abr into desktop Error 32-broken pipe
   Hope you can help.
   As I subscribe to your website I am soon going to change my email address. How do I change this on your subscription?
   Also do you use a Wacom tablet and if so which one would you recommend. I use photoshop mainly for processing photography.

2. Thanks for this Jesús – you are one of the few people who not only tell what is possible with a tool or technique but also explain the limits. Too often tutorials by other trainers give the impression that everything is easy and then avoid illustrating the more difficult bits, which can be very frustrating for anyone building their skills.

   1. You’re welcome, David! Thank you for the comment!

3. A great tutorial as ever, and many thanks for these brushes JR!

   1. Thank you, Roger!

4. The only channel which I check if am stuck with no clue in editing is PTC vids. You will always go beyond what is needed rather than being cut to chase to one thing only. Thank you JR 🙂

   1. You’re welcome! 🙂

5. Cheers for the help bro…..really appreciated

   1. You’re welcome!

6. I have watched several of your tutorials and I have always been impressed. I like your style of teaching, specifically you don’t waste a lot of video time talking about things that don’t add to the learning experience. This tutorial is awesome, just like the rest of your tutorials. I thank you very much for all the hard work you do in putting these together and offering freebies like the brush downloads.

   1. Thank you, Steve! I appreciate that!

7. Thanks for the shortcut the tricks. Sometimes I also do this.

   1. You’re welcome, Sanwar

8. Terrific tutorial, Jesus. I’d go as far as saying it’s the superlative tutorial on the subject. Way to go!

9. Thank you so much.

   1. You’re welcome!

10. Very good masterclass.
    Excellently well explained, with an accessible language.
    Maybe the best explanation I found.
    Congratulations.

    1. Thank you, Pedro!

11. Excellent Sir !

    1. Thank you!

12. Very informative, many thanks, the best one I have seen about hair masking.

    1. Thank you, Soes!

13. Appears unable to download the brushes

14. Thanks for suggesting this tutorial with the 19.1 PS ‘Select Subject’ feature. It really fills in all of the gaps for using these new tools in Photoshop.

15. Hairs are possibly one of the most difficult and irritating work that one needs to do, specially when picking up subjects from busy backgrounds. This tutorial is by far one of the most creative I have seen so far. Though I have used the calculation process to select hairs from busy backgrounds but at times it also fails due to similar luminosity values between the foreground and the background. In such cases creating hairs like this remains to be the only solution as you have shown.

16. Just Awesome Sir

    1. Thank you!

17. Another informative tutorial. No bull just facts and helpful tips to guide any user through the difficult process of removing complex backgrounds. Appreciated the advice that not all elements are able to be captured with the selection tools and that sometimes you just have to create them yourself – along with the instructions and techniques on how to achieve them. Great work, Jesus.

18. Cool tutorial! Very useful. Also thanks for these brushes.

19. Excellent video. Thanks for brushes.

20. sir can I get the link of your used photos in tutorials

    Thanks

22. Hello, Jesús,
    Thank you for this tutorial.
    I’ve notice that it takes a long time to download the zip file with the brushes, and when I decompress it, it yields an error: “Error 32 – Broken pipe”. You may want to look into that.

    Also, I feel I would benefit a lot more from your tutorial, if I could play around with the same source material as the ones you work on. Would it be possible to make the photo of the model and the background available for download?

23. thank”s brother poste good

    1. You’re welcome!

24. tnks!!! for the .zip !!!!!!!!! u are the best teacher!!! u inspire me to learn more about PS
    hugs from México!!!!

25. Great tutorial, as always. I love your YouTube channel!

    I got an error when trying to unzip the hair brush files, though. It says: Unable to expand “ptc-hair-brushes.abr” into “desktop” (Error 32 – Broken pipe.)

26. Well, never mind. It worked anyway! Disregard that previous comment.

27. I get a broken pipe error when I try to expand the zip file with the hair brushes. Anyone else get this?

28. I have watched several of your tutorials and it’s awesome.

    1. Thank you!

29. hi bro
    whats the right version which is compatible for this brushes?
    thanks

30. in the name of god please give the original stock photos you used for tutorial if you use other photos you will always stuck in a different kind of issue and waste lot of time

31. You say that with the new mask totally white it is 100 opaque so no transparancy. Then you go on to say that painting with any shade of gray or black to reduce the transparancy. Surely this is a mistake as painting with a shade of black increases its transparancy.

32. You are the best teacher for photoshop in my life. I love your tutorials and watched many times in youtube by replaying the video.there are many secret things in photoshop. Thank you very much, sir.

33. Thanks a lot for amazing tutorials

34. Love and appreciate your training,can we partner for you to train like 100 youths who will subscribe to your channel….am running a training on Photoshop, website, animation etc.. I plan to make my training more of online than onsite.do u mind becoming one of our facilitators.

35. good job!!!!!!!!!!!

36. I really loved the tutorial…I’ve made a couple of hairball brush now!!
    and at the end you mentioned about the download…so I came to get it and it’s erroring out for some odd reason..I’m using a mac, so I assumed maybe it’s some PC related issue and downloaded winzip and still getting some odd mutidisk error on the file…I’ve downloaded the file a couple of times but not luck with it…could email the file when you get time? and have a happy holiday!

37. Hi, thanks a lot. It is a great tutorial and as always, your presentation is so accurate that it helps me to easily understand all what you are explaining. Thank you also for making the brushes available to download.

38. Nice job

39. very nice

40. I’m a little confused… maybe I’m not clicking the right thing but the title for this page is “ADVANCED Hair Masking In Photoshop” but the video is “3 Easy ways to make colors pop?” Not sure what happened or if it’s user error?

    Your videos are so great, thank you!

41. can you give me the pictures for practice purposes?

42. Thanks jesus

43. Dear Jesus!
