I used to do it similar to a.
I'm Interested to see if there is a better way of doing this.

think about this: how would you do it in real life?
you need to take care of the silhouete of things first, then the detail.try to find some timelapse of an artist drawing stuff on illustrator, you'll see how he does it.

hmm seems like I'm in the same boat as everyone else than.Essentially, I'm just shocked that there still isn't the option to close a path, but then just carry it on a little. Or to draw a shape freely like you would do with a pen, and be able to give it a fill without having to convert to live paint.

I'd draw the head as one shape, the mouth/beard as another, put them in position and then Add copies of their shapes for the consistent outline in the background.
