How to Draw Anime Hair

Hello all welcome back to another awesome drawing lesson here on DragoArt.com. Today I will be showing you an easy way to learn "how to draw anime hair" on an anime model. The reason why I made this tutorial is because I know that there are a lot of members that still have trouble with drawing out the different aspects of anime/manga characters whether they are from a series or made up from their imagination. This lesson is going to teach you how to draw anime and manga hair step by step. The tutorial is not guaranteed to be a great help, but it will show you the very basics on how to draw anime hair. I have become such an anime fan over the past few years and I can seriously say that over time my anime character drawing has gotten better. I have a sketch book that I have been using for a little over a year and I can actually see the differences from my old drawings to new drawings. In my house I’m like the only one that draws. I’d love to teach my brothers and sisters to draw but they’re not interested in the subject. So anyways, this tutorial should be easy enough to understand for all skill levels. All you have to do is follow the step by step instructions and take your time, and you’ll have yourself some awesome anime hair. Also if you are going to be drawing a full figured model, you will also need to learn how to draw anime noses step by step as well. I will be back in a while with more drawing fun so stay tuned.

Next draw out the outline of the anime hair style and make it as long or as short as you wish. This is the step to choose what length you want your anime character to have. Sketch in the hair tips and then add some more strand lines.
