Tumblr Boy With Fluffy Hair Drawing
@manekie
sorry this took me so long to answer, ive been pretty busy and havent had time to sit down and draw some examples until now!
I will start out saying that ive never formally studied hair, so all this will just be my knowledge on stylized hair and how i draw it!
Jumping right into it, the first thing I think about when drawing hair is where the hair is going to part. I decide on the point the hair will start from (represented by the red dot) and then decide what direction I want the hair to go. In this case I'm drawing straight hair in a side part + bangs. When drawing bangs, its important to take note of the hair line. In my head, I separate the bangs from the body of the hair since they don't follow the main part of the hair but rather start at the hairline.
From here I sketch out the sections of hair, using the arrows as a directional guide. You want to think of hair in terms of sections rather than strands. Like any form, breaking the form into parts makes it easier to visualize and draw. I like to think of each section of hair as a ribbon when I'm blocking out the basic shapes. It's much easier to figure out how hair will twist and turn, especially when in motion or as seen in curly hair, when you visualize it as a bunch of ribbons or streamers radiation from a central point.
Here, you can see the sections I divided the hair into more clearly. I use directional lines to give me a basic idea of how the hair is falling but most of the hair is still in chunks.
In this image I've outlined the two main sections of the hair (excluding the bangs which can be considered a third section). The line the blue arrow is pointing to is where the part of the hair is and the rest of the blue outlines how half the hair falls into a sheet over the shoulder. The purple outline is of course the other half of the hair that comes out of the part. The purple arrow is pointing to a "crease" in this section of the hair. I'm not sure how to describe this well, but still thinking in terms of a ribbon, the ribbon is folding over itself because it is not completely flat. Hair acts the same way; it will overlap itself, especially when the hair is parted to the side. Sorry if that's confusing, but basically just know having lines coming out of the part helps emphasize it so your hair isn't all over the place!
Lastly, I've separated the hair further into even smaller sections, though I personally don't put a lot of detail into my hair so you can see I still have a lot of chunks left. It's up to you whether you want to push further with this, it's time consuming to continuously separate the hair, but if executed right it can make your art really pop! However, I prefer simplifying my hair both to save time and just because it fits my style better!
In this stage as well, I've added strands of hair that go against the direction of the rest of the hair. Hair is almost never perfectly rounded or neat so having strands that stick out or move in an opposite direction can help make it look more natural over all! I also decided to make the part where the nape of the neck comes through a little more evident than the draft to make it clear that it is separating there.
As for the "fluffy" aspect in my style and more specifically the hair I draw (thank you btw that's such a sweet compliment!) I use rounder shapes and curves to make hair look bouncy or fluffy! Actually, I can't draw super short, straight hair well because I just love drawing floofy bangs and hair too much.. but its fine because short hair tends to lift away from the rest of the head anyway haha
I wont go into much detail for this hairstyle since its essentially the same process but some final advice: It's always good to draw the head shape before drawing hair. In stylized art/anime especially, hair tends to poof out from the head but that doesn't mean the head isn't there. You still need to follow the basic shape of the head and consider how hair falls over it.
I hope this helped a little! I'm sorry this is such a simplistic tutorial and for the rough drawings, I'd like to go over hair in motion and hair when its pulled back/up or curly but I feel like those need to be in a separate post ;v; maybe i'll do those at a later date if anyone wants to see those~
