The image is too small to see what you are referring to. Can't see what is detail and what is a mistake. Character looks really good from what I can see.

good luck

1. Try rendering at a much larger size and then downsampling to a smaller size in Gimp or something. That might eliminate your problem of the line around the piece of hair. So, render at 3000 x 3000 or something and see what that looks like.



2. Select the hair shape in question and make sure STROKE is deselected. You don't want an outline I'm assuming.

The shading effect will put shading around the whole shape. When you overlap shaded shapes you will get those "edges".


There is no good solution for this other than masking which will probably cause thin antialiasing lines between the hair shapes.This would create the layering but the hair layers would blend together because the shading is the same for each layer. Not sure if this is what your problem is so I won't go into more detail yet.
