Step 9

Small details like highlights give the hair a completely different feel. Draw several curved shapes that we'll use as highlights on various parts of the hair.

Step 10

Make the curved highlights white and place them over the top of the hair in places where light looks like it should be reflecting.

Step 11

Add more highlights and adjust their transparency to give the impression of less reflection. It's looks more realistic if a bright reflection is adjacent to a not-so-bright reflection.

Step 12

Careful not to add too many highlights as this will overpower the subtlety of the effect. This is what your hair should look like.

Step 13

The background is simply created using the Rounded Rectangle Tool. Once you draw the shape, add a nice gradient to compliment the hair. The contrast between the rich black hair and the vibrant red background helps the image come to life!
