After Max got 10 different expressions in a previous article, he will now have the pleasure of having 6 different hair styles.
Before we start, you’ve got to notice something really important about any hair, drawn or real: almost every hair style which is longer than a few millimeters has a hair part. Just look at the mirror, and you’ll notice it.
In most cases, the hair part is located in one of the two locations – the middle of the head or just right next to it.

My hair stylist once told me that men have left hair part, and women have a right one. Well, I think no one but my hair stylist care about that, so you can choose whichever hair part you’d like. I usually draw a right hair part for all my characters. I find it easier with better looking results.
Part I: Short hair
Guys with short hair usually have a few ‘jumping’ hair where the hair part is.
- When drawing hair make sure you don’t draw it as if it was stuck to the scull. give it some volume by drawing it in a small distance from the scull.



Part II: Long hair
In many cases long hair covers a small part of the face – when loose or when tucked behind the ear it can hide a part of the forehead or eyes.


Part III: Curly hair
There are many levels or curly hair – from Afro-curly to wavy. Never forget to draw a small line of curls hiding the top of the forehead – this is the ‘connection’ point between the head and its hair…
