How to remove background in photoshop in fastest way ? Your answer is here where you can remove background of any images whether complex or simples one. Here We will not use any pen tool as you knew that using Pen tool is time taking process.
You can Check video or follow my Steps given below the video.

Step 1: Selecting object you want to cut out

For selecting Object you can use Pen tool, lasso tool, quick selection tool, etc but I will suggest that use Object selection tool by pressing ‘w’ of your keyboard and select object selection tool from drop-down menu.

After choosing Object selection tool , Drag over a object which you want to select and Photoshop detects automatically object and select it as shown below.

Step 2: Checking selected image

Now after selecting Image check image whether it is selected nicely or it doesn’t selected correctly. If yes, move to next step i.e. Step 3 otherwise follow me. If not selected nicely like mine.

Then, You can use tools like Quick selection tool, magnetic lasso tool, polygon lasso tool, to add them or to delete extra selection from your image by pressing ctrl or alt while selecting using lasso tool.

• ctrl : To add extra selection from your image
• Alt : To delete extra selection from your image

But in my case, I will use ctrl + Polygon lasso tool to select extra portion of image.

Step 3: Select and Mask selected object

Now to select and mask image, you need to press ‘w’ from keyboard and Click on select and mask visible on 2 Top bar of your photoshop.

After selecting Select and Mask from 2 Top bar, You will transferred to this interface. If this Red color overlay will not visible, simply click ‘V’ and choose Red color from properties panel. To select small hairs and other detailing, click Refine edge brush Tool or press ‘R’  then use it over boundary of selected image, It will remove all unwanted things and add small hair too selection too.

Step 5 : Making it a New Layer

To make it new layer, Scroll down under Properties panel and in output setting select “New Layer” from drop-down menu of Output to and then click OK.

Now you can see your selected object having no background.

Step 6 : Checking That unwanted things left or not

For checking that unwanted things left or not, You need to make a new solid color layer (make sure that selected solid color is Dark). I am taking Black color as background, here you can choose any color but make sure it should be dark one like red, black, dark green, Royal Blue, etc.                                                                                                                                                To make new layer of solid color follow steps given below :

• Select Circle (half black and white effect) in Layers panel below Your layers.
• In the drop-down menu, click Solid color and select color which you want, I am choosing Black but You can choose any but It should be dark.
• After selecting your color, a darker one, drag and drop your Solid color layer under your Image layer

This will Look like figure shown below

Step 8 : If you notice some unwanted things

Here I am not getting any unwanted things in picture so I can use this image But If you are getting any Unwanted things in your image, simply Select your Object Layer and use Eraser Tool or simply press ‘E’ from your keyboard and remove it.

Step 9 : Adding background to your Image

After checking unwanted things, Simply Hide or Delete the Solid color layer and then press ctrl+o and choose your background and open it in Photoshop. Drag and drop on Your cutout object and Drag background below your image layer.

Your Image is ready with cutout, Now you can adjust its color and make it nice by adding some filters or by adjusting brightness, contrast, vibrance, saturation, etc.
