Please show examples if you will of your work that you feel differentiates boy hair and girl hair. Thank you!

Babies are born with all kinds of hair, there is no real boy/girl differential. Some have thick, thin, straight, curly every baby is a blessing with or without hair, baldies are darling too. I personally don’t care for painted hair, I root or do a combi. Sometimes you just make yourself crazy over thinking , your babies are cute as buttons ,. LOL don’t worry be happy and keep painting

I don’t paint hair, but I feel like for newborn size babies I root boy and girl hair the exact same, I’ve never seen a newborn and thought that little boy has girl hair! Larger babies though I definitely tend to do a bit shorter for boys and a little longer for girls, even though I know at age 6-12 months there is still no difference in real babies. For me the sculpt usually looks feminine or masculine and the hair is just baby hair 
Also I should add that I’ve seen many of your painted hair babies and feel like you always do an excellent job matching hair painting style to the sculpt.

I feel like when I paint my hair straight forward it looks more ‘boy’ and side swept looks more ‘girl’
Not sure if you see what I mean in terms of the hairstyles, but it’s just how I feel haha

I think brining hairline more forward makes it look like a girl, hairline back - looks like a boy.
However nature disregards that ‘rule’ and you can see all sort of hair lines on babies 
But if you bring it forward, it’s important to avoid ‘helmets’

Have always had this problem. LOL Boys are my favorite but when I have to paint a girl, it’s super challenging to make her not look like a boy because of her hair.
That’s how I feel my Zuri looks after trying to make her look like a girl when she kept looking like a boy. LOL
