Do you have any advice on drawing hair? I have trouble with it, and right now I'm trying to draw a character with curly hair (which is double hard). My style is very realistic. Thanks!

Sure! First, let’s look at different kinds of curly hair. Lucky for us, there’s a whole chart for that kinda stuff. Curly hair can range from slightly wavy to the most scrunchy of curls. >

Here’s how I would approach painting curly hair. As with all hair, I recommend you block out the basic shape, so you know how the hair is being layered. Since curly hair is so voluminous, I then block out the light and shadow, treating it like a 3D object. Then, I add the detail of the individual curls. Variety of big and thin curls will give you a more natural look, and not like a uniform doll. 

I hope this was helpful! Here are some more tutorials on how to draw hair:
