Problem with Photoshop 2021 sky replacement feature

[Reddwarf4everOrig]

Started using the sky replacement feature, but although it does work well, it ‘bleeds’ into objects in the image in the foreground.....e.g. heads hats etc.is there a way to ‘mask off ‘ these objects to prevent this happening, I tried a quick selection inside a hat, but it did not prevent the blue sky ‘bleeding‘ into the hat, it is a lace hat so that doesn’t help.

many thanks

I've read that auto-masking isn't perfect when you're using the sky replacement feature.
Found this video on how to use some built in masking that will help correct the inaccuracy:

It's a cool feature - used it myself since upgrading. I do feel a bit like I'm cheating though...
