Can anyone point me to hair modeling tutorials?

I've got zbrush 4r7, hexagon, Carrara, and blender. Im planning to get 3D coat and metasequoia next month. I want to create 80s hairstyles and I'm looking for tutorials. Anyone that could give me some guidance would be appreciated.

  • There's this one, Modeling with Littlefox: Hair Collection by Lady Littlefox which is pretty good.  While she uses Moda, she gives enough info that you can follow it in any modeling program of choice.  I used Blender to follow along and I currently am working on a hair in Hexagon using the tutorial.  The link is to the bundle for both modeling and texturing.  She also has it available as single products.  Wait until it goes on sale.  It's an older tutorial and she uses V4, but you can safely use any figure you want.  I used G2F for the first one I did.

    There are a few of decent YouTube videos for modeling hair that are more program specific.  Most of the ones I've been following are for Blender, but I have a couple for Hexagon bookmarked to work through.  I haven't worked my way through all of the ones I have on my playlist yet.  Here are some to get you started using different techniques.  I have several more that I can link to you if these are what you are looking for.  Most tutorials seem to be for anime style hair, but the same techniques work for realistic hair styles, too.  It's all in the shaders used.  I hope these help.

    I have not followed this one because I don't have ZBrush, but it's an interesting take on making hair.  I need to see if I can do the zBrush part in Sculptris.
