Here's a tip to gain maximum control when using the Magnetic Lasso tool.

Start off by clicking in the image to start selecting it, now if you want to maintain complete control without having to start another selection, try these shortcuts-

[ ] (bracket keys) - To change the width value!
, . (comma, full stop) - To change the contrast setting!
; ' (Semi-colon, apostrophe) - To change the frequency!

Now you can select as much as you need in one hit!!
