If you have ever tried to draw hair before, you may usually end up with horrible messy hair ... unlike hair. More like some hay that has been pasted or the like. In essence, this may be terrible.

And that's great, because you're most likely just trying to pull it the wrong way. Except your intention on hyperrealism Even if you want a thousand times easier to start by learning the exact photorealistic technique, and that is to shade and unite.

if you try just to draw a haircut, add a little effect like a light that shines on its parts, or add curly here and there (if you can do realistic curls so early in your workout, this will be very impressive) .. and only Once you are sure of using this, then you apply it to the main image that you are drawing.

And imagine, once you master the hair image, or even when you start handling it, you will not feel very proud of yourself for doing it, but your friends and family will also be impressed with it as well. .

Maybe some people think of art, but that's not the point, you and I both understand that. The point is in skill and patience. And this is what you are developing here by spending time practicing quickly will produce hundreds of fantastic images. You can be like using different and different techniques.

For this tutorial, I use basic art supplies: my favorite drawing paper, pencil and eraser.

Because the focus of this drawing is the hair, just starting out by drawing an oval for my head and then attaching a neck to it. put some guide lines where the nose and eyes would be, too.

Now, draw in a general shape of where the hair will lay. This is an important step in the process. Here, you determine the length and style of the hair based on its silhouette.

This is as simple as drawing wavy lines to indicate where your curls will go. Since drawing a longer hairstyle, curls will be long and relaxed. If you’re going shorter, however, you’ll want to your lines shorter and more zigzag-like.

Here’s where the fun begins and you start to bring the curls to life. While all hair is different, there are some general guidelines when defining curls:

Think of curls like ribbons. They start at the part and hang from there. Imagine that you’re wrapping a package and curling ribbon. Think about that structure as you’re drawing the hair. The strands are going to twist over onto themselves, so you’ll have parts that are the “front” of the curl and the “back.” The front will overlap with the back, which will appear smaller and less curved.

Not every curl can be super curly. Hair is layered, and the pieces that are toward the sides and the back of the head generally aren’t as curly. Instead, they’ll probably be more of soft waves. So, to make your drawn head of hair appear natural, focus on several ringlets and imply a wavy texture behind them.

But just imagine once you've mastered this technique. You can finally pull hair as you see in many other images.
