Well, I'm trying to animate stuff like this.

How would I animate each hair, draw a hair then give it a layer, then draw another and new layer, and so on then animate them with bones?

If you are talking about the final character, there's minimal animation going on here, in fact. There are three mouth positions, and about half a dozen hair animations. The latter are just combined in different ways to make it look more complicated than it is. Good animation practice!

There are at least three different ways of doing this -- particles, actions and switch layers. For a newcomer, I'd bet that switch layers are the easiest to understand. Check out the tutorials for switch layers, then try it out on something simple that you can analyse frame by frame. Experiment!!

You can't have everything. Where would you put it?

When you click the NEW LAYER BUTTON one of the choices is SWITCH.

You got to try and work with us here. Read ALL the tutorials. LOOK at the tutorial files.
