How to Draw Bakugo’s Hair
- Draw the left side of Bakugo’s hair outline.
Start by drawing the top left section of Bakugo’s hair. Use zigzag lines to create the spiky and uneven shape that defines his hairstyle. Begin from the left bottom and extend the lines to the top, ensuring the spikes vary in size for a more natural look.
- Add the outline of the hair at the right.
Extend the spiky pattern right and downward, maintaining the irregular and sharp shapes. Be consistent with the size and angles of the strands. As with the left side of the hairstyle, keep the strands varied as much as possible to maintain the overall volume and shape.
- Draw the strands around the temples.
Let’s start adding details to Bakugo’s hairstyle. First, draw the side parts of the bangs at the temples with a few simple lines. I decided to separate the drawing of the bangs to show the creating of this part of the hairstyle in maximum detail. Do not try to make these parts look perfectly symmetrical.
- Add the part of the bangs at the left.
Now let’s focus on the front left section of Bakugo’s hair by drawing the fringe. Continuing the shapes from the previous step, add pointed, jagged strands that fall slightly over the forehead. These strands should have a slightly different angle than the rest of the hair to highlight their placement.
- Sketch the part of the bangs at the right.
Continue drawing the bang of Bakugo, using more sharp and angular lines. The overall length and size should match the outline from the previous step, but the individual strands should vary in length and direction. Keep the strands of the hair sharp, maintaining consistency with the rest of the hair.
- Draw another section of Bakugo’s hair to the left.
Work on the spikes at the crown of the hair to improve their shape and detail. Add smaller spikes within the existing outline to give the hair a fuller and messier appearance. Start with the left side, drawing smaller stands with sharp edges.
- Add some more strands of the hair at the right.
Now let’s continue to detail the hair of Bakugo by adding texture to the right side of the head. You can either mirror the strands as in the previous step, or add more asymmetry as in my example. Unlike the previous step, the strands here should be facing to the right.
- Add some finishing touches to the hairstyle.
Review the entire hairstyle and add final touches to the spikes. Incorporate smaller, secondary strands near the edges to make the hair of Bakugo look even more detailed. Pay attention to the direction and flow of the spikes, ensuring they remain consistent with the overall messy appearance.
- Color the finished Bakugo’s hair drawing.
Use a light yellow or sandy blonde for the base color, as this matches his distinctive look. You can add darker shades at the roots or along certain strands to give the hair more dimension. This step completes the drawing, making it ready for display or further use.
