Hey guys it's Tyler here and today I'm going to be doing a tutorial on how to draw hair, and I thought this would be the best and easiest thing for you guys if I just simplified it all to the easiest steps and made it general for any Gender, any hairstyle, and, like literally so these tips will help you draw any hair. I'M not even kidding like. I thought that if I made a tutorial on different hairstyles that it would help you guys, but honestly, I think this one would help you more because it just makes a generalization that you can use in every hairstyle. So let's get started so I'm just using some regular printing paper um, I didn't know where to get more printing papers, so I'm using one that I found in my room that was already printed on sorry. I know I'm super lazy, okay. So anyway, let's get started so the first thing we're gon na do is we are going to let's say wait. Let me move this you, so we are going to start out with the head right. I'M just gon na make a random circle. You know random guidelines for a head, that's where I started whatever and let's say we finished the head of whatever we finished everything. Now we want to start on the hair, so most of the time people would just go ahead and start with the hair, no rules or anything, and it would end up looking kind of like this right and then you're like oh shoo. My lines are not smooth. Nothing looks good, it looks too messy looks too thick, there's nothing cool like then you would start adding random things and they just get worse and worse right. So this is what happens when you don't really follow any rules. You just draw randomly, and you know you don't really care about. What'S going on with your hairstyle and there's no varying line thickness whatsoever, all the lines are almost exactly the same. What we're going to do is when we first start drawing the hair. We are going to make a light sketch of how we want the hair to look. So let me zoom in so we're going to start making a general hair shape. That is number one step one. So we're going to do this hairstyle, but pretty much better. We'Re going to make a light sketch of how we want the hair shape to be okay, and now that, now that we have the bit like the light shape, we can add a dot to show where the hair growth is, and this is really important. Like hey. Let me show you this is where my hair growth is going to be right there. This is really important, because this dot kind of reminds you where the hair is all coming out from like where the parting is. You know where you part your hair right here. So this will show it a little bit easier and it will make it a lot easier to find how to make your hair more flowy. So now that we have the dot we're just going to keep that in mind as we're drawing I'm going to make this hair into smaller segments so that later on, I can make cool, hair Swift's and stray hairs and just make it really nice and flowy. So I'm just gon na break it into segments. I'M going to break it into a bang segment right here. Another bang segment right here notice how they're all connecting back to that dot. Then I'm going to have the back right here and I'm just going to just shape it out. Okay, and you can even add more little segments like this just so you can have more variety right here. You can add more right here. These are like little details that we're going to add on later anyway, so after making them into segments 1 2 3 4, we are going to add varying line thicknesses now this is really important. Adding banging line thicknesses and just cutting it down will help you make the hair more flowy, more natural-looking and just really nice all together. So what I'm going to do right now? Is I'm just going to take this and make the hair segments thinner and just add varying line, thicknesses a thick line here, a thin line here? You know - and this is a lot easier, especially when you're first starting out drawing notice, how I made like a thin strand of hair sticking out and just a thin line right there and really just be patient with it. If you rush this, it's not going to look good. It'S just going to look really messy, so I'm I was going to erase this little part that I made here, but I don't care I'm just going to leave it at this point and just by doing that you just added so much depth so much sick, there's! So much thickness and now we can draw the rest of the face if you didn't already go ahead and draw it. As for the back of the hair, you can kind of just do whatever you want at this point, and just like you know, add some random lines and stuff like that, so pretty much. What you need to learn from this is that there are five important things. Actually, one is to make a general hair shape to draw a dot for hair growth, three make it into segments and then you for use varying line, shapes and then five is follow gravity. So this one, I didn't even touch up when I was drawing this, but you can already tell there's a huge difference between these two hair styles. When you don't follow a gravity your hair will like. Let'S say you want to draw a cow lick right, a cow lick! Is this standing up strand right here? If you don't follow gravity, it's going to look really stylized or it's just not even gon na suit. Your drawing at all. It'S gon na look really weird and really random, but if you want to draw a cow lick and follow gravity, it's going to have some kind of force pushing it down like this. So it looks more natural when it's going over. If you just draw it straight up, it's just gon na look kind of weird. I know there are some hairstyles that, like for me sometimes like I see people whose hair just naturally sticks up like this and that's definitely okay. You can do that as well, but don't forget, like there's a rule of gravity that makes it curved like this. You know what I mean, so that's why it's important to follow gravity when you're drawing here like, for example, we're going to draw hair from the side right here. Is this person's face? Okay, but we want to draw their hair kind of flowing over to theirs over their shoulder right, so here's their shoulder and then we're going to kind of draw out hold on here and there we go so here's their shoulder right, but we want to draw their Hair kind of flowing down to the back of their shoulder, so you kind of have to recognize. Do you see this kind of flow right here, so you have to follow this kind of flow into the shoulders? So it's really important to remember that gravity also pulls it down. So, instead of flowing like this, here's, the shoulder instead of flowing like this, you know, like kind of rapidly it kind of flows into the shoulder really nicely and really smoothly. Whereas, like this one, I don't know if you can tell, but it kind of just goes like down really fast, so those are very important key notes. I know I drew female hair, but honestly, if you cut it down, you can also make male hair. You can do whatever you want, it's really simple and it's really important to make an outline of how you want the hair. To look so. Let'S say I wanted to do male hair, that's kind of spiky right before I start actually drawing out the hair, I'm going to draw a little outline like this of the hair shape that I want. Do you see that, and I know it looks really goo but Ronnie right now, but like good, what Ronnie is like my whatever anyway, it looks kind of weird right now, but you're gon na have to fix it up later when you segment it out. So let's say we segment this part out. We make another segment right here and another one right there, so you can kind of tell already that it's building it building into a hairstyle. You know what I mean. I don't know really what this is. But the point is that, in order to draw hair, you need to segment them out the more segments you make, the more details, the more flowy and nice little. It looks and, as you can see already, I also made varying line thicknesses like it's thicker here thin here, thick and thin and with vein lines. Think thicknesses. I know a lot of you guys think like. Where do I make it thick and where do I make it thin? But the important thing with this is that it's entirely random, it doesn't have to be thick only here. It doesn't have to be thin only on the outside. You can really pick wherever you want. As long as it kind of flows all together, do you know what I mean and it's better not to have all of the thicknesses like on one side just have it mix together randomly so instead of having everything thick here, for example, in this bad one. Instead of having all the lines be thick here, have them have a blend like a thick here, a thin here and then a thick down here. So it looks a lot better. I know it looks kind of weird with this, but it looks a lot better altogether when you put it. So that's pretty much it with this kind of. It'S really important to also note where the hair growth is so let's say we parted it from the center-right. You cannot put a dot or you can put a line in the center to know where the hair is coming from, because if you don't, then it will just kind of be like Naruto hair. You know how Naruto's hair kind of just goes all over the place. It'S hard to see how it like it's hard to draw his hair. If you want to draw it realistically, so that's mostly because he has spiky hair. So it's like all over the place. But if you just don't pick a spot and then it makes it harder for you to draw it later on and also one more thing before I go. If they have a point like somewhere like boys, for example, they have a swirl at the back of the head, so they don't have the point over here right. So then, when you're drawing them from the front, you just have to keep in mind that if they have the point all the way in the back, where it's not shown just to kind of keep it in your head that it's all the way back there and The hair is coming forward from there. You know what I mean so just keep that in mind. It happens a lot with bowl cuts so with Bowl cuts. You really want to remember that it all comes from one point and you kind of just bring it out. Like a rainbow - and it's really fun to draw bold cuts actually, but now you can see that it's already coming together for this hairstyle, but in this case I was just doing it randomly. But yes, I hope that helped you guys kind of see, tips on hair, and this will really help you with any kind of hair, male hair, female hair, crazy hair, normal hair, every kind of hair. These tips will help you with everything. I promise you that this has these tips actually helped me a lot just keeping those like five things: five tips, keeping those five tips in mind, really helped me improve my hair drawing techniques and, of course, if your hair will not turn out like this right from The beginning, it does take a lot of practice with lines and looking out other hairstyles and stuff like that, but in the end you will reach this point as long as you follow these tips, alright guys. I hope this helped I'll see you in my next video bye, bye,

𝙋𝙧𝙚𝙥𝙥𝙮_𝙜𝙬0𝙧𝙡: Twinkle Twinkle Little Star why is Art so freaking hard I just sometimes want to cry I can't draw the other eye edit: thanks for the likes. EDIT 2: Jesus I forgot abt this comment lol
Vampy: Thank you so much! You literally saved me. Ive been trying to redraw my oc for the longest time and this has helped a ton! Thank you thank you thank you!
MuhznEatsNoodles: Never ask a man: his salary A woman: her age An artist: to draw a circle
Alyssa Porter: Here's a tip when drawing a circle. Make a circular motion over the paper with your hand using your shoulder instead of your wrist. When you get the gist, press the pencil lightly against the paper and keep going until you see the circle form within the light sketch. This'll help you also improve on drawing circles, worked for me pretty well.
HEllo: Everyone: commenting about circles Me: that is one nice pencil
Valrhys: My Brain : "ok circle" My Eyes : "imagine a circle" My Hands : *rhombicosidodecahedron*
Evan Meyer: I love how you don’t just speed through and not talk so un-detailed. You explain like a real art teacher. I also noticed you said “if/as you can tell” and “like” so you example what it’s really like. Thanks!
Elizabeth Sedai: Sooooooo helpful!! It's funny, I've been drawing anime for DECADES and I just started trying realism and I've been struggling SO hard with hair... even though you're explaining how to draw hair in more of an anime style, your tutorial helped me way more than any of the realism vids!!! Thank you soooooo much!! Subscribing now!!!
♡Ceciel♡: I don’t care if this was three years ago. This is the best tutorial I’ve ever seen. Most tutorials make you draw in their style for it to work, however, this even works with my really simple style. Thanks!
Dreamin' Donuts: I love how chill and relaxed your voice is. Your overall personality is just so chilled and i love it.
Caffee Cup: The 914 people who dislikes are people who couldnt draw their circles perfectly
squidmochi: Thank you for this! I've always struggled on hair and this tutorial really helped me a lot!
chie: OMG thank you I’ve always had trouble drawing hair but your tutorial just, makes sense. I’ve always had friends who just could draw hair and just have it flow well and I could never understand, but with this it’s so obvious to me now I’m surprised I didn’t come to this sooner, especially with the dot that reminds you where it all comes from, thanks so much!
JTG: to draw a circle get a ruler, make a square, mark a cross on the middles of each line and connect in the middle and do the same for corners. then use that to help you draw a circle and when you are confident enough try drawing a circle without the guide and remember not to get confident and draw quickly, just take your time and you will eventually get it

chapstick :): Whenever I feel embarrassed about not being able to draw as well as professional artists, I remind myself that I'm a ✨ professional circle drawer✨
Froggy: Just a lil tip, the thickness shouldn’t be random, instead make the thickness when the hair overlaps :) (ex: if the hair is overlapping the check, make that overlapping area a ticker and have it fade out when the overlap ends, and try to make the details thiner. Please have a good day!

Paper Cartoons: Good advice up to the point where she says to make line thickness random. Consider thickening lines where the drawing: - is in shadows - is closer to the viewer (to create depth/dimension) - needs to draw attention - needs to simulate weight
Jim Lejajde: Like Betty Edwards says:”Learning to draw is learning to look… at things.” Keeping working at it. I had an actual block about drawing a few years ago. Now I’m reaching it to seniors.

Yw
