I'm looking for a versatile hair set that features some nice curls... long curly, short curly, etc. SHould be able to work with any Milleniun figure (preferably). Any body have any recommendations? thanks, e.d.

What version of Poser are you using? Runtime DNA has some really good looking Dynamic hair for Poser 5 called RDNA Real Hair, I use that quite a bit. And it comes in the short medium and long flavors with some really great materials.

I will have to say Spiral Curls by AprilYSH. There are multiple free add ons to those and they're really giving new meaning to the word "versatile".

Oh and they're cheap too :o)

You will need to decide between "dynamic hair" (mentioned by amon_g, and "volumetric hair" (as mentioned by ernyoka). Dynamic hair is P5 only, but typically looks more realistic, and the P5 Hair room gives you a lot of control over how it looks (length, thickness, amount of waviness, etc.). One thing it doesn't do well are spiraled curls. But many people use "curls" to refer to waviness; length and waviness are easily configured with Dynamic hair. As mentioned, there are props in the marketplace both here and at RuntimeDNA that you could use for that. Volumetric hair (polygonal hair prop) can give very realistic hair sometimes (depending upon the quality of the prop). The amount of control is greatly dependent upon how the hair was created, and how many pre-defined morphs come with it. You can change hair with Poser magnets, but that's a tedious job. You can also created your own morphs in at external application; that's tedious as well (unless you do this for a living). However, AprilYSH's Spiral Curls are an excellent example of how volumetric hair can exceed the capabilities of Poser5 dynamic hair. (hmmm, too much info...?)

One other problem with dynamic hair, as far as I'm concerned, is that it slows down rendering. Okay, you all can stop laughing now...but it is possible to make Firefly render even slower than normal and dynamic hair seems to be one of the culprits. I don't know how you speed it up....? Never too much information. I learn a lot from postings like this. And I did finally cave in and buy the spiral curls.

Ive had P5 just decide to quit rendering because of dynamic hair and yes it does make rendering slower (when it renders - especially shadow maps) but the quality is not bad with the right materials and lighting. Wow! Thanks Zenman and Ernyoka on the information on Spiral Curls. I think Im going to have to go out and get them too!

I discovered, when I was busy doing something else, that sometimes the Poser 5 rendering hasn't really stopped but is taking an infinitely slow time to render. Lots of lights with shadow maps are, I agree, another slow down...the combination takes patience (I believe someone suggested turning off the shadows for all but one light but that, of course, is what I forget to do each and every time). But the results, sometimes, are so nice that it's almost worth the wait. :)
