How I doll hair?

I\'ve been recently asked how I doll hair... I\'m explaining it in my own way!

1. Start with a base
2. Using any colour (I usually use purple) sketch the hair (gives it more of a flowing movement)
3. Using a different colour (I usually use red or Indigo/dark blue as they have colours that match... Erm... like in teh picciture...) and go over the lines to smooth them out and make them one pixel (or how ever many you want) wide. Then using the right click method rub out the purple lines then make the background colour white on the pallete and paste an unedited version of the base (or the size needed for the hair e.g. from the top of the head to the waist for waist length hair) and move the version you\'ve been working on on top (It makes it so the spaces where you rubbed out the purple lines filled in)
4. Get rid of any colour inside the lines then fill it with another colour.
5. Mess around with shading and get it where you want 'til it looks like it'd look okay. ( I also sort out the outlines to fit my style...)
6. Mess around with colours. Chose the colours you want and then shove them on.
7. Add highlights in whatever style you want...

As you call tell, I\'ve put a lot of work into this thing xD
I mean the pixel itself, not all the junk to do with explaining it...
you\'ll see why soon enough so keep an eye on me ;D
