Cartoon Anime & Manga Hair

Anime hair is often based on real hairstyles but tends to exist drawn in clumps rather than individual strands. Ane good reason for this is that if you are drawing multiple frames of blitheness or multiple panels of a manga information technology will simply be too time consuming to describe anything overly detailed.

Cartoon Long Anime Hair

Long straight hair is probably one of the most common hairstyles in anime and is fairly like shooting fish in a barrel to draw.
Higher up you can see the breakup of the long hair cartoon example into:
- Red – Front Hair
- Green – Side Hair
- Blue – Back/Top Hair
You can utilise a similar breakdown to drawing other hairstyles as well. Thinking of the hair this way can make the cartoon process a lot easier to manage.
Keeping this in mind we can move on to the actual drawing process.

Footstep 1
Starting time by kickoff making a cartoon of the head and an indication of the hairline. While in this particular hairstyle the hairline is less important as information technology's full covered by the hair it can still help you better judge the overall length and position of the forepart and side hair sections. Make the caput/hairline cartoon fairly low-cal then you tin easily erase parts of information technology later.
Step two
Depict the pilus right over the top of the head and hairline every bit in the example above.
For this particular hairstyle where the front department of the hair has been cut fairly short you lot tin depict information technology in relatively pocket-sized pointy clumps.
Brand the "side hair" fairly long with information technology'south overall shape slightly curved. You can too split it into several smaller clumps towards the ends.
Depict the peak part o the "back hair" pretty much post-obit the shape of the head (a bit of a altitude abroad from it) and then widening until it's finally subconscious behind the shoulders.
Step three
Erase the parts of the head hidden past the hair and add a few lines to show the inner folds of the front and back hair. Yous volition generally want to position these folds in betwixt the pilus clumps equally that is where these will normally tend to form in real hair.
Step 4
Adjacent add some folds in the "back hair" to requite a chip more definition of it's shape every bit well so that it does not just look like a flat cutting out.
You lot can besides add together some bones shading to make the hair stand out a petty bit more than in one case you cease the line drawing.
Drawing Short Anime Hair

The brusque hair drawing example higher up is fairly similar to the long hair with the pilus in one case over again broken downwardly into three basic parts of front, sides and back.
The actual breakdown of the drawing procedure can be as follows:

Pace ane
Again showtime the curt hair drawing with the head and hairline. Same as the previous instance the hairline will non be as important hither equally it is in other hair styles simply tin can still exist helpful.
Step 2
Withal once more very similar to the long pilus draw the "forepart hair" department with a set up of pocket-sized clumps. For this particular example the pilus volition exist a bit more than messy so the clumps will curve more than in dissimilar directions. If you want neater looking pilus y'all can draw them the same as the first instance.
Step 3
Aforementioned as before erase whatsoever parts of the head hidden past the hair and draw the bottom portion of the back hair. Generally information technology's a good idea to leave this department of the pilus for the terminal office of the line drawing as in the front view of the head it volition be in the back backside most of the other parts of the hair. If you lot try and describe information technology first yous without the other hair to sort of "frame" its position you lot volition probably stop up with some overlapping lines and have to do extra erasing.
Step 4
Add the inner fords (just ane in this case) and if yous like, some bones shading.
Cartoon Trimmed Anime Hair (Hime Cut)

For trimmed hair depict the hair dodder with flat ends that look like they've been cut off by sissors.
For a neat look the different hair clumps should more often than not be drawn pointing in the same direction every bit the clumps next to them and any shifts in direction should be gradual.

Step 1
Start by drawing the hair and indicating the hairline. For the "Hime Cut" the hairline volition again exist covered by the hair.
Step ii
For the initial cartoon of the actual hair you lot can first with the sides followed by the back. Y'all can indicate the front section of the hair with just one line.
Footstep 3
Now draw in some small-scale splits into the forepart and side parts of of the hair to make them await more natural. Erase the line in between the splits when you are done. Yous can too erase any parts of the head that are covered by the pilus.
Stride 4
Finally again similar to the showtime example add together some lines to the hair in the back to show information technology's various inner folds. Try and draw these with fairly random spacing and slightly varying curves. If you infinite everything evenly and brand all the curves trace 1 some other likewise closely the hair will not expect very natural.
Drawing Long Messy Anime Pilus

The long messy hair is somewhat like to the commencement example but with some extra pilus clumps. Again information technology tin be divided up into 3 parts similar all the other examples then far.

You can also add together a pair (or more) clumps to the inner parts of the "side hair". Y'all tin can either erase the outlines of the hair where you want to draw these or add them and erase the overlapping outline afterwards. Next you tin add in some dissever lines in between the pilus clumps same every bit some of the other examples. To end the line drawing again erase the parts of the face and caput that are covered past the hair afterwards.
Step iv
Every bit this example also has long back hair you can again draw in some of information technology's inner folds to make that section look more like actual pilus. You tin can also make them a bit more wavy than the other examples to over again brand the hair wait more than messy.
Drawing Anime Pony Tail /Tied Back Hair

Another fairly common anime hairstyle is the ponytail. You will notice that in that location is basically no side hair in this particular example (other than the tiny bits of the hairline on the sides). So the hair can pretty much just be splits into the forepart and dorsum sections. The back consisting of the pilus over the elevation of the head and the pony tail.
Draw this blazon of hair as follows:

Stride 1
Draw the head and indicate the hairline which for this hairstyle is slightly more important than the previous examples every bit some of it will be visible in the final cartoon as already shown.

Depict the back hair just slightly over top of the head eventually merging into the sides.
Though usually pony tails will confront directly backwards for anime hair you can draw it slightly more to one side so that information technology's shape is more than visible. Otherwise the pony tail can only look like a bump on the caput. You lot tin draw the pony tail with a sort of question marking similar shape. You can as well add together a minor divide at the stop.
Step three
Same as for the "Hime Cut" draw in some small splits into the front end section of the hair and erase parts of the lesser line of the "front end hair" to brand spaces in between them. As well erase the parts of the head hidden past the hair.
Pace 4
Yous tin again give the hair some light shading if you like. You tin likewise optionally draw in a few more lines into the hair to make it look a little more carve up than the "Hime Cut" which tends to have more dense "forepart hair".
Drawing Anime Hair Over One Eye

For the hairstyle with hair over one heart you lot tin yet once more split the pilus into the front, sides and back. In this manner the front end section of the hair will be fairly big and sort of merge into the "side hair" next to the covered centre.
