We propose a sketch-based method for posing a three-dimensional (3D) hair model that enables artists to create attractive hairstyles more easily and intuitively. The system takes partial contour drawings of a preferred hair shape to modify the rig parameters so that the hair model fits into the sketch. Our method consists of two parts: flow extraction from a sketch and pose construction using the flow. The method was evaluated by a user study and an interview with a professional 3D artist.
