I've never been a fan of the magnetic lasso, sometimes it looks too rough for me. I usually use the Polygonal lasso tool, and zoom in REALLY far for accuracy. Or sometimes I use quick mask, also zooming in pretty far for accuracy. For hair, I do a rough selection, then after it's been pasted the the new image I use a layer mask to touch it up. That's just a personal preference though.


Here's a nice tutorial I found for ya :)

edit: err.. If you decide to go the quick mask route, make sure your brush settings are hard/100% opacity, otherwise you'll end up with some transparency on the object you want to extract.
