Hi, I’ve been working on a personnal project of mine, and I’m kind of stuck. I never really learned how to do proper hair. I’ve searched for tutorials, but it never really does what I want. I didn’t look into hair&fur because frankly, I’ve never seen a great H&F result. I’d also like to keep him cartoonish, so it may be inappropriate anyway. This is my 3D model so far:

And this is what I’d want his hair to look like (from my model sheet):

The second problem I’ve encountered, is the eyebrows. Normally, this wouldn’t be much of an issue, It’d be better to texture it, or model a simple eyebrow, but it’s quite different for this character. You see, The basic idea of my story is that he is a prisoner that escapes jail with the help of his trusty eyebrows. Let me explain. They act sort of like powerful whips, or even second pair of legs at some point. I have no idea whatsoever how to model and animate such eyebrows.
To give you an idea:
