Manga/Anime artists I need HELP!?

Hiya!

I'm an anime artist myself and I've been drawing for years, bla bla bla backstory. I've got a lot of the drawing and anatomy down packed, though I've always, ALWAYS struggled with head shapes! I need help.

How do you of it? Are there any tricks? Can you offer me any help?

It's frustrating when the face looks amazing but there's this darn head shape that I just can't seem to nail!

Thanks for any help and advice. :)

    I drew this diagram just for you :3

    I'm not sure of your style but this is more manga/anime

    I've been drawing since I was 7

    turning 16 soon

    if you are doing more of a realistic style it's the same concept just wider rounder features

    I have the same problem, reference other anime/manga heads and try and do it how they did it. It helps me a lot.

    You could look up videos/tutorials online on how to properly do head shapes
