Long straight pilus is probably i of the most common hairstyles in anime and is fairly piece of cake to describe.
Above y'all can see the breakdown of the long pilus drawing instance into:
- Reddish – Front Hair
- Light-green – Side Hair
- Blue – Back/Top Hair
You can use a like breakup to drawing other hairstyles as well. Thinking of the pilus this fashion can make the drawing process a lot easier to manage.
Keeping this in heed we tin can move on to the actual drawing process.
Step 1
Start past offset making a drawing of the head and an indication of the hairline. While in this particular hairstyle the hairline is less of import as information technology's full covered by the pilus it can withal help you ameliorate judge the overall length and position of the front and side pilus sections. Make the head/hairline cartoon fairly light so you can easily erase parts of it after.
Pace ii
Draw the pilus right over the top of the caput and hairline as in the instance to a higher place.
For this particular hairstyle where the forepart section of the hair has been cut adequately short yous can draw it in relatively small pointy clumps.
Make the "side hair" fairly long with it'south overall shape slightly curved. You tin likewise split it into several smaller clumps towards the ends.
Draw the acme part o the "back pilus" pretty much post-obit the shape of the head (a chip of a distance abroad from information technology) and then widening until it's finally hidden behind the shoulders.
Step iii
Erase the parts of the caput hidden by the pilus and add a few lines to show the inner folds of the front and dorsum pilus. You lot will generally want to position these folds in between the pilus clumps equally that is where these will usually tend to class in real pilus.
Step four
Next add some folds in the "dorsum pilus" to give a bit more definition of it's shape too so that it does not just look like a apartment cut out.
Yous can also add some basic shading to make the hair stand out a lilliputian flake more than once you lot cease the line drawing.
Drawing Short Anime Hair
The brusque hair drawing example above is fairly similar to the long hair with the hair once over again cleaved downwardly into three basic parts of front, sides and back.
The actual breakdown of the drawing process can be as follows:
Footstep i
Once again start the brusk hair drawing with the head and hairline. Same as the previous example the hairline volition not be every bit important here as information technology is in other hair styles just tin can nonetheless be helpful.
Step 2
All the same again very similar to the long pilus depict the "front end hair" section with a set of small clumps. For this item example the hair will be a fleck more messy so the clumps will curve more in unlike directions. If you lot want neater looking pilus you can draw them the same as the starting time instance.
Step 3
Same as before erase whatever parts of the caput hidden past the pilus and draw the bottom portion of the back hair. Generally it'south a skilful idea to get out this department of the pilus for the concluding function of the line drawing as in the front view of the head it will be in the dorsum backside most of the other parts of the hair. If you try and draw it start y'all without the other hair to sort of "frame" its position y'all volition probably end upward with some overlapping lines and accept to do extra erasing.
Step 4
Add the inner fords (merely one in this example) and if you lot like, some bones shading.
Drawing Trimmed Anime Pilus (Hime Cut)
For trimmed hair draw the hair dodder with flat ends that expect like they've been cut off past sissors.
For a neat look the dissimilar hair clumps should generally be drawn pointing in the same management equally the clumps next to them and whatever shifts in direction should be gradual.
Step 1
Start by drawing the pilus and indicating the hairline. For the "Hime Cutting" the hairline will again be covered past the pilus.
Step 2
For the initial cartoon of the actual pilus you tin start with the sides followed by the back. You can indicate the front end section of the hair with just one line.
Pace 3
Now depict in some pocket-sized splits into the forepart and side parts of of the hair to brand them wait more natural. Erase the line in between the splits when you are washed. You can also erase whatsoever parts of the caput that are covered by the hair.
Step 4
Finally once more similar to the starting time example add some lines to the hair in the back to show it'due south various inner folds. Effort and depict these with fairly random spacing and slightly varying curves. If you infinite everything evenly and make all the curves trace one another too closely the pilus will not look very natural.

Yous can besides add together a pair (or more than) clumps to the inner parts of the "side hair". Y'all tin either erase the outlines of the hair where you desire to draw these or add them and erase the overlapping outline later. Next you lot can add in some split lines in between the hair clumps aforementioned as some of the other examples. To end the line drawing once more erase the parts of the face and head that are covered past the hair after.
Footstep 4
As this example besides has long back hair you lot tin can once more depict in some of it's inner folds to make that department look more like actual hair. You can also make them a chip more wavy than the other examples to again make the hair look more than messy.

Though usually pony tails volition confront directly backwards for anime hair you can depict information technology slightly more to one side so that information technology's shape is more visible. Otherwise the pony tail can just expect similar a crash-land on the head. You tin can draw the pony tail with a sort of question mark like shape. You can besides add a pocket-size split up at the end.
