Thank you ... This is all done with a 7B pencil and a pencil eraser. I block in the darks drawing in the direction of the hair and then blend it all together with a stiff paint brush and blending into the highlight area and then highlight by drawing lines with a pencil eraser. Then repeat the process a few times adding some loose hairs along the way. Hair looks intimidating but it really is not as hard as it looks.

I thought this was a picture at first, and had to double check. How do you not smudge it?!
