If you are doing a value study, it makes sense to establish values by blocking them in all over the picture. Leaving the background and hair white is a bad idea. Values are relative to each other; if you add a dark background now you'll find that the face and dress look much paler than you think they are now, for instance.
Work from biggest blocks to smaller detail; use a big brush, don't scribble neurotically with a tiny one; think of the light and where it comes from, not about abstract "values".
