Previously deleted cuz I realized I didn't follow rule 2. I'm making another character (April if you couldn't tell) and I'm faced with these weird ass artifacts on the neck part of the mesh. There's no overlapping faces, I've recalculated the outside, reset vectors, deleted and created new faces, my UV map is fine, I even tried pointing the normals to a target and THEN resetting the vectors just to double check. Am I missing something?

I'm working on a character with stylized long relaxed 4a-4b hair, and it just doesn't seem right. It doesn't feel dense enough and I just want to know if there's a better way to do this. 1st is the character (so far) and 2nd's kinda what I'm going for. I know the coil size is big compared to the reference lol. And for clarification, this reference is only for the hair, I'm not basing the character off of this person
