Article: Most pillowcases are made of cotton. This material actually draws moisture out of your hair, leading to tangles and breakage. Instead, you want to sleep against silk. Wrap your pillow in a silk pillowcase. After you moisturize and braid/pineapple your hair, simply lay down on your silk pillowcase and go to sleep. Silk pillowcases can be purchased at some beauty supply stores, home goods stores, or online. Another great option is to select a silk (or synthetic silk) wrap for your hair. You may choose a bonnet-style wrap, a tie-wrap, or you can even use a silk scarf. Many people prefer wraps over silk pillowcases because they secure hair to further reduce dents and frizz. After you have moisturized, and braided or pineappled your hair, place your silk wrap on your head. If you are using a bonnet, simply pop it on over your pineapple(s) or braids. If you are using a tie-wrap or scarf, wrap this around your head and tie it in a knot or a bow.  You want to make sure that the wrap will not fall off during the night. You also want to be comfortable for sleeping. Try to place the knot in a location where it won’t bother you while you sleep (e.g., tie it at the front if you sleep on your back or in the back if you sleep on your stomach).

Use a silk pillowcase to keep your hair soft and moist. Choose a silk wrap to further reduce dents and frizz. Secure your wrap.
Article: Use a pencil and sketch your lines in lightly so you’re able to erase them easily. Make the circle in the center of the page, leaving room on each side of it so you have space to add more features. The circle doesn’t need to be perfectly round, but you may use a compass to help you draw your lines if you want.  The drawing of the dragon head will be in profile view when you’re finished. If you plan on adding the rest of the dragon’s body to your drawing, then make sure the circle is small enough so you can fit the body on your sheet of paper. If you want your dragon to have a longer face, then make a horizontal oval instead of a circle. Choose either the left or right side of the circle depending on which way you want the dragon head to face. Draw the top horizontal line of the snout coming from the top of the circle so it’s the same length as the circle’s diameter. Make another horizontal line coming from the bottom of the circle to make the bottom of the snout. Connect the 2 lines so the corners are rounded.  You can make the snout longer or shorter depending on how you want the dragon to look. Don’t leave sharp corners on the end of the snout or else your dragon won’t look natural. Start one of the lines where the bottom of the snout connects to the head. Make a curved line coming down from the head as long as you want it. Then draw another curved line that’s parallel to the first one on the opposite side of the head. The dragon’s neck usually gets wider closer to its body, so you can make the lines get further apart near the bottom if you want to. Start drawing the mouth in the middle of the trapezoid’s narrow end. Extend the line horizontally so it ends near the middle of the dragon’s head. Curve the end of the mouth up if you want your dragon to look like it’s smiling, or angle it down if you want it to frown. Put a parallel line underneath the mouth if you want it to look like your dragon has a bottom lip. You can either add teeth that point up or down along your dragon’s mouth. Choose anywhere along the mouth and draw a triangle that points up or down starting from the mouth line. Add 5-6 separate teeth in your dragon’s mouth so it looks more fearsome.  Don’t line the entire mouth with teeth or else your drawing may start to look messy. You can have teeth pointing both up and down. Place the eye next to where the top of the snout connects to the side of the circle. If you want your dragon to look more realistic, draw a small circle for the eye so there’s a small gap between it and the top of the snout. For a dragon that looks angrier, add a horizontal triangle so the point faces the snout.  Don’t make the eye too large or else you won’t have room to add other features. Search for pictures of other reptiles to see what their eyes look like so you can use them as a reference. Dragons don’t have smooth skin, so their heads will look bumpy and knobby from their scales. Use the outlines you currently have as guides and go over them to add curves to the snout. Use wavy or zig-zag lines going from the end of the snout toward the back of its head.  For example, you may add a large bump above the dragon’s eye if you want to give it a prominent brow. You can add as many or as few bumps and ridges to the dragon depending on how you want it to look. If you want to add horns to your dragon, make a vertical line extending out from the top of the dragon’s head. Extend the line out so it’s about the same length as the snout. Add another line that starts on the back side of the dragon’s head and connects to the end of the first line to complete the horn.  Make the horn shorter if you want to make it seem like your dragon is younger. You can make the horns any shape you want. Look up horns on real animals to get influences for what you can include on your dragon. You may also choose to add horns or spikes running down the back of the dragon’s neck if you want to. Go over your drawing with an eraser and get rid of any lines that aren’t still a part of your dragon. For example, you may erase the circle or the original outline of the snout if you added more bumps to it. Continue erasing any guides or mistakes you made, and blow off the shavings when you’re finished.  Darker lines will be harder to erase than lightly sketched lines. Get a clickable detail eraser if you need to erase lines in small areas. You can get special erasers from an art store or online. Once you erase the guide lines, start adding the final details into your drawing. Start with small ovals or circles for the nostrils at the end of the snout. Once you add the nostrils, draw in U-shaped lines on the sides of the dragon’s head and down its neck give the illusion of scales.  You don’t need to draw every scale on the dragon’s face since it could make your drawing look messy or unclear.  Shade your drawing with a pencil or colored pencil if you want to add more perspective or color.

Draw a circle in the middle of your paper. Add a rounded trapezoid on the side of your circle for the dragon’s snout. Make parallel lines coming out the bottom of the circle for the dragon’s neck. Sketch a curved horizontal line through the trapezoid to make a mouth. Draw triangles coming out from the mouth to give your dragon teeth. Put a circle or triangle above the mouth to make an eye. Add bumps and ridges on the top of the dragon’s head for more texture. Give your dragon horns if you want to. Erase the lines you used as guides. Add details like scales and nostrils to make your dragon seem realistic. Finished.
