basically draw rectangles then draw horizontal lines inside the rectangles

give them a buzzcut, draw straight lines vertically and horizontally on the buzzcut so now it’s multiple squares, then add a line for the area you want the dreads to get tied at, and draw a line in the middle of each square, and draw the lines going to the center of the area where it will be tied, and then when the lines cross that area, give it physics or soemthing probably makes no sense I bullshitted this out of nowhere by just guessing but idk maybe it could work tell me if this sounds like a fever dream I don’t draw hair and I’ve never drawn dreadlocks tied up but I feel like this could work…

just look at a cheese string as a reference
