Facial: Hairstyles

Welcome to the second part of the third practice lesson! In this lesson we'll look at working with hairstyles, what they are and how to work with them correctly.

Hairstyles: their purpose and impact on the result

First of all, I want to note that there are a huge number of hairstyles, both male and female. But you will agree that if you are asked to name possible hairstyles right now, you will not remember many of them. That's why I have prepared for you a universal list of hairstyles that will be perceived correctly by the AI and will give predictable and correct results.

Here's a list of hairstyles I use in the course of my work:

Women's:

  • pixiecut
  • bob hair
  • short hair with long locks
  • hair bun
  • braided hair
  • braided bun
  • hair drill
  • pigtail
  • twin tails
  • ponytail
  • bangs
  • blunt bangs
  • short bangs
  • hair over eye
  • forehead
  • ahoge

Men's:

  • mohawk,
  • bowl cut,
  • messy hair,
  • curly hair,
  • spiky hair

For demonstration I will use this prompt (separately marked what was changed)

  • (Original Character、Unity 16K Wallpaper, Masterpiece, Best Quality, Ultra-Detailed, Extremely Detailed CG, Caustics, Cinematic Lighting, Detailed, Beautiful Detailed Eyes, solo,sexy women), Ultra High Resolution, fine skin, ((maid, maid apron, maid headdress,)), (strong light)、oily skin,curby:1.2,cowboy shot,sexy women, (braided hair:1.5), above chest:1.2, little devil face,large breasts, hair,accentuate the chest

You can also work out the hairstyles yourself. To do this, use this link to a ready-made algorithm.

Important specks when working with emotions

Hairstyle is one of those elements that can dramatically change the look of an image. So for example to emphasize femininity you can use long hair. In turn, for playfulness you can use ponytails. Also, if you do not have the opportunity to use the power of AI to the full, you can use bangs, which will cover one eye. That in turn will give the AI the opportunity to focus on the rest of the details and possibly draw the second eye better than if he drew two at once.

For your better understanding of the lesson, I would like to draw your attention to these main aspects.

First of all, it is that you can combine haircut and bangs in one hairstyle. The main thing is to choose the right combination. And here your imagination is completely free.

hair bun

The second thing you need to pay attention to is how much the AI understands you correctly. Because depending on the model, different combinations and hairstyles in general can be interpreted slightly differently. So experiment with parameters, weights and find the best solutions for you.

ahoge hair
hair over eye

And third. Make sure that you do not have too different parameters overlapping in this part of your query, which may confuse the AI. You should always remember that the AI solves the problem head-on, and the more complicated the query is for its understanding, the more possible errors and inaccuracies. That's why we write hairstyle precisely and try to add the keyword "hair" so that the AI can better understand us where you see something going wrong.

Homework

Your homework will be to try out the different parameters for working with hairstyles yourself. You can use this prompt for this purpose

  • (Original Character、Unity 16K Wallpaper, Masterpiece, Best Quality, Ultra-Detailed, Extremely Detailed CG, Caustics, Cinematic Lighting, Detailed, Beautiful Detailed Eyes, solo,sexy women), Ultra High Resolution, fine skin, ((maid, maid apron, maid headdress,)), (strong light)、oily skin,curby:1.2,cowboy shot,sexy women, (braided hair:1.5), above chest:1.2, little devil face,large breasts, hair,accentuate the chest

Or you can go straight to the link and start generating.

You can also see examples of how to use prompts in my telegram group, where I share ready-made algorithms and image creation tweaks every day.

Download the results of your experiments and share them within the course. Remember that the main thing is your creativity and imagination! Good luck, and enjoy the process of creating unique images with artificial intelligence.
