Create one strip, UV it the way you want, duplicate and deform that strip over the rest of the head?

sorry sir but i can't model any organic model or anything in any modelling app,i just can do sculpt and duplicating each strap and then placing is impossible for me and more important i don't love to do that.

Doing it in ZBrush you're kind of making it harder for yourself, but the same rules apply. Create the hair strip, UV master plugin, then duplicate it. I'm not sure if you can decide where the hair plane's uv's go though in the 0-1. Zbrush isn't the app you finalize game models in, they usually end up in max/maya or something of the sort, especially since you still need to rig/weight/animate things, iono, w/e. GL
