the template (above image) [by template, i mean the + on her face, not the eyes/nose, drawing eyes/nose is just a preference i like doing before hair, the +  can also be a huge guide for eyes, soo >.>...]

 

and yea, using the + template just use it as a distance on how long (height-wise) you can draw hair, for width wise, just make sure its within her shoulders, could go a bit beyond shoulders, but shouldn't go toooo far from the shoulders

 

and then yea, fix it and you will get nice hair?

i just drew this quickly, still on the legs of the drawing tbh, and thats harder x_x

 

im using XP-pen, its really old (like 2015? model i think, not sure, its pretty extinct now) which costed me 5k Php (more less around 100$)

This is the tablet btw, excuse the mess on my table, im too lazy to clean it all up ~.~

 

thanks for the hair tip. i personally use a wacom (not sure what model) and it works pretty well but the software is pretty garbage so i cant really get stuff to work right. is there a good software to use that isnt trash?

personally, the way i draw hair is via just drawing a template

few strokes/simple ones at first

and then once you have a hair-shaped line, add a few details and voila

 

it's kinda tricky? at start, but then you start to get used to the strokes, and can draw them simply

ill post an example of how i draw hair, (on-going atm, will edit as i go)

the template i mean

hair on going

thanks for the tip, ill try it out when i get the chance. Also, do you use to draw? im thinking about buying a drawing tablet but im not sure what kind as for right now im just using a mouse

ive watched so much anime and read so much manga trying to figure out how to draw hair but i just cant get it right, its either to big, to small, or just doesn't look like hair at all. I was hoping someone could point my in any direction to get better
