Here are the TIPS FOR RENDERING ANY HAIR:

1. Simplify Hair Forms: Don’t focus on rendering every individual hair. Instead, block out the overall mass and flow of the hairstyle.
2. Understand Hair Strands: For curly hair, visualize each strand as a twisted ribbon that narrows at the end, and add individual hairs after shaping the form.
3. Follow Natural Hair Direction: Start from the hairline and follow the natural direction of the hair with smooth, long strokes.
4. Divide Hair into Groups: Breaking the hairstyle into curl groups makes the rendering process easier and more organized.
5. Model Lighting: After blocking the hair, focus on lighting by adding light and shadow. Turn off the linear sketch to focus on tonal work.
6. Use Multiple Light Sources: Adding a second light source (one warm, one cool) creates more depth and helps define the lit and shadowed areas.
7. Choose the Right Brush: A brush with tapered ends, like a Brush Pen in Procreate, is ideal for shaping curls.
8. Observe Light and Shadow: Focus on where light falls and shadows deepen. Highlight areas that reflect light and enhance shadows for volume.
9. Zoom Out for Overall View: Regularly reduce the picture scale to assess the overall look of the hairstyle.
10. Avoid Over-detailing: Only detail the illuminated parts of the curls, and let shaded areas blend into the mass.
11. Add Color Variations: Hair is not one flat color. Add subtle shade variations to create depth and richness, especially through lighting.
12. Focus on Key Details for Final Render: Use a smaller brush for detailed areas, especially in well-lit parts. Blend areas where hair clumps together or is out of focus.
13. Adjust Lighting for Depth: Areas closer to the light source will have more contrast between light and shadow. Those farther away will have softer transitions.
14. Use the Lasso Tool: The Lasso tool is handy for refining the hairline, shaping shadows, and enhancing highlights and glare.
15. Master Curly Hair for Other Styles: Once you can render curly hair, straight or wavy hair becomes easier. Curly hair has more volume and depth, making it a great training subject.

the "unrealistic" straight hair on the person actually looked really cute

thats not curly hair also it's not "cheating" to use helpful brushes it just makes things easier

Using brushes isn’t cheating. There’s no such “cheating” in art. One person doesn’t like to spend that much time struggling on something, while maybe someone else does

Could you try doing 3c curly hair, please? I have a difficulty doing it

Using custom brushes ISNT cheating. Custom brushes are still hand drawn by someone

the art looks great! i do have to agree the curly hair is lacking many curls; the sample you showed curling around isn’t reflected in the sketch/final. I think it wouldve worked better if it did!

to the ppl nitpicking the “brushes are cheating” thing, this is learning how to draw hair, not a “use a brush to draw hair” class. Nobody gonna care abt someone using a premade brush in a drawing, but that’s literally missing the entire point of the video 💥💥 also as an artist, you should really learn how to draw things by hand, especially human features; saw someone say “somebody drew it”, but that somebody sure wasnt you! Unless you actually just dont care about learning art. In which case, do what makes you happy.

I love this! Can you do a tutorial on even more curly hair? It's very hard to draw :')

Thats not curly hair, that is messy hair. Hair can be both messy and curly, but thats not anywhere near curly. At least you could say messy wavy/frizzy hair!!
That said, love the art 🩷
