This was my first try coloring with copic markers. What did I do wrong or right? Are there any techniques I'm missing? Thank you so much~!

This is very good! Being an artist who also uses Copic pens, what I would recommend when colouring the hair is to:
. Colour from the root of the hair when colouring the top part of the hair
. Colour from the tips when colouring when colouring the bottom part of the hair
. Do not colour in with the darkest shades you have on top of the lighter shades: make a gradient! 

What I also notice when you colour in the hair of the character is that you colour from the middle of the hair to the roots which results in a scalloped effect where you place your pen. 

I apologise because my explanations can be very confusing. Once I become a contributor of the group my explanations might be easier to understand as they will be represented in pictures. 

Nice character by the way! :3

I see. Those are definitely good ideas. I'll try to use those techniques.
That was my first time using them, so it's nice to hear tips from people with more experience.
Thank you for the help, your complement, and your time! ^^
