One of the more difficult aspects to deal with when it comes to Photoshop projects is hair. In real life, hair is obnoxious enough, but it only gets worse if you have to create or adjust each strand freehand in Photoshop.

To make your life a little easier, we’ve collected the best hair brushes (for Photoshop, not your head) on the internet. Now you can create gorgeous luscious locks with a single swipe of your cursor.

One of the most realistic options on in this list, these hair brushes contain more curls than anything else.

Perfect for pencil drawings, this set was specifically designed to offer a simple way of adding gorgeously straight or wavy hair to any project.

 

6 Hair Brushes by Falln-Stock

Falln-Stock has become a go-to source for quality hair brushes. We’ve included three of his sets in this list, just based on how realistic they look and easy they are to use.

The second set of Falln-Stock brushes on this list includes options for light waves and individual strands.

16 Wavy Hair Strands by redheadstock

As mentioned above, getting a good curl is difficult with Photoshop hair brushes. Getting a proper wave is also extremely hard. This set of 16 wavy hair brushes will work for your drawings and animations.

 

Windblown Hair Brushes by frozenstocks

Coming with 23 options, this set of brushes helps you get the perfect windblown effect on your more challenging images. These brushes can take your images from studio-perfect to a wilder setting in just a few strokes.

16 Unrestricted Hair Strand Brushes

We are in love with this set of hair strand brushes. When used individually, these strands can give a mussed look. But their true power comes when they’re layered, giving you complete control over the hairstyle of your project.

15 Hair Brushes by Kittyd-Stock

The 15 hair brushes included in this set are designed to be used for more fantasy-inspired projects, making them a very genre-specific set. One of the benefits of this collection of Photoshop brushes is that if you have an older version of Photoshop, there are also stamps available. 

11 Hair Brushes by Lugubrum-stock

One of the benefits of Photoshop brushes is that they are so extremely versatile. This assortment of brushes proves that one set of brushes can be more than enough for any project.

 

5 Hair Brushes by para-vine

This set of Photoshop brushes was specifically designed to be used with a pressure sensitive graphics tablet. However, using the extra equipment is very much worth it, since combining these hair brushes creates a light, feathery effect.

 

Hair Brushes I by flordelys-stock

We’ve listed options for wavy and curly hair brushes, but no selection would be complete without a ringlet option. The first set of brushes crafted by flordelys-stock create gorgeous ringlets for your more whimsical projects. 

Y3D Hair Brushes for Photoshop by Yanelis3D

Another option that needs a pen tablet with pen pressure, this set of 10 brushes was crafted for painting realistic hair for the best artwork.

 

Curly Hair Brushes by Enamorte

If you want dramatic, full, tight curls for your project, look no further than these brushes. These Photoshop brushes are ideal for making complicated hair styles much easier to create.

Realistic Organic Photoshop Hair Brushes

These brushes, which come in a set of 2, were designed to give users a natural and realistic look to projects. While they may cost you a little money, the expense is well worth it.

 

Hair Smudge Brushes by kuschelirmel-stock

We’ve all had that one project that just needs a little smudge for the hair. Nothing too dramatic or fancy, just a slight smear. With 5 brushes, this set is primarily for getting that smudge look, though the brushes can also be used for painting.

 

Anime Hair Brushes by OrexChan

We love this set because the creator has even included a .png version, so they can be used outside of Photoshop. However, we can’t include this set without praising its genre-specific styling.

 

Custom Photoshop Directional Hair and Fur Brushes

Most hair brushes are used for humans. However, every now and then, you might need a brush for fur. In this set of 21 brushes, you’ll find amazing options for human hair and animal fur, which can be layered and will paint the fur in the direction of your strokes.

 

15 Hi-Res Photoshop Hair Brushes

Because these brushes are extremely hi-res, they’re a bit larger than the other options on this list. However, you won’t be disappointed with the amazing detail they provide.

 

Skin and Hair Texture Brushes by castrochew

You’ll love how realistic these brushes make your projects. It is recommended, however, that you use them with a graphic tablet.

 

Painted Hair Brushes by RaSen


Even though this set was made with curly hair in mind, you’ll find a variety of Photoshop brush options. Don’t forget, the pressure settings are active!

 

Painted Hair Brushes by SandyLynx

If you want a set of brushes where each strand can be painted, building up to give you just the right look, then these brushes will be perfect for you!

 

Hair Brushes for Photoshop by Aikensha

As the picture suggests, one of the reasons we like this set of brushes is how easy it makes creating realistic looking bangs and fringes.

 

Hair Strands Brushes by laceratedwristsstock

While this set of Photoshop brushes might need a little extra time to be used, since it allows you to create each and every strand of hair, if you’re working on a more detailed project, these will be ideal.

 

3 Stock Photoshop Brushes by MaureenOlder

MaureenOlder has created a number of brush sets, since no designer can have too many. However, these free options stand out for their ease of use and versatility.

 

Curl Brushes by Scully7491

Scully7491 scanned her own hair to create these brushes, making them some of the most realistic option on this list. Of course, being so realistic means they also come with a certain amount of frizz, so keep that in mind when using them.
