One of the best things about Pyrography design is that you never stop learning. There is always a new project idea to read about, a new pattern to design, a new blog post to read. Burning with fire is simply an art filled with endless possibilities. One of the best projects that you can create right now is a realistic looking hair. Here are useful guides that can help you do so.
Sharon’s guide is one of the easiest pieces that you can follow. On her blog, Burning with Sharon, she has a video to help you learn how to burn a beautiful hair.

When burning a realistic representation of an animal coat, it’s important to select a nib with the correct profile and use it in such a way as to reproduce the texture and look of the animal. Experimentation shows what is possible. Given experience and knowledge, there is little that can’t be reproduced in pyrography.
To get the most out of the guide provided here, it would be best to make the guide itself practical. Doing so helps you get better with time.
Conclusion
Getting started on this can be somewhat tricky, especially if you are doing it for the first time. However, you need to keep practicing, until you can create a realistic hair yourself – without making references to any design.
