3) Since I already have simple shape to go off from. I can now easily go in and draw detail over the established big shapes.

Drawing hair tip 1) On the spiky Manga hair shape, Draw big then small or wide then thin or short and long. DO NOT make your hair spikes shape all even or the same shape, they will look strange. It is more natural looking with uneven split of hair clumps.

Drawing hair tip 2) Start with bigger shape to establish the overall look first. Once you have the rough base to go on top, it will make your drawing a lot easier when try to add detail drawing.
