Okay, after looking at another dozen or so tutorials and trying things suggested by you fine people, this is what I came up with. I'm sticking with short hair for now since I want to get the general idea down first. I think it's an improvement from my last effort. And before anyone suggests it, this is cropped from a 3000x3000 image. I was smart enough to render high (I did 2000x2000 last time), but again wasn't smart enough to do it with an image that was only a close-up and not a full body shot. Maybe next time I'll think that far ahead (ooh, that's a pun!). Comments, suggestions, etc. are encouraged.
