Need Help Manipulating a Lock of Hair - SPIRITWH60 - 05-02-2018

Hi. I am using Wonderful Gimp 2.10 in Windows 10. I have an image of a lock of hair that I need to manipulate into a spiral curl. Does anyone know how I could do that using the new warp feature, the other warp plugin, or some other tool I can use to do that? I am looking to create hair out of real images of straight locks of hair. The result would look much like the hair in the photo below. Thanks a bunch! Debby

welcome to gimp-forum.net

No replies so far?

It will be best if you can post an example of what you need.

These two images pulled off the internet. Do you want left side type warped into right side type? https://i.imgur.com/zPKuTYR.jpg

Personally, I think a decent result will be unlikely, not a spiral for sure. More a wave and even then looks unnatural.

Hi, Rich. Thanks so much for thoughtfully replying to my post. Below you will find the kind of hair I am needing. Like you said, it probably will be unlikely that I will get a natural looking result no matter what tool I might use.

One of the actual hair locks that I am using to make the curls is attached.
