I generally trans it y and then z, and it's different every time. May I suggest something? When I started mixing and matching hair, I started with the Kaz ponytail which I think is the very hardest to switch, and I gave up. I tried to get it on Mike. Try using the wave hair by Kaz. It is much easier to fit to anybody and if there is a Vicky fit use that for TenTenJ because the PT girl's head matches Vicki's closer than Posette's. Again use the y trans first. You might want to use a display that shows the hair a little better, I forget what the right one is called but you can see the edges very well. Use the Face Camera. Play with y trans until it looks right. Then use the trackball to move to a side view-- does it look as if the hair is too much in the front, move it back with z just a tiny bit. That is generally all you have to do. If you have the Daz blunt hair, practice with that as well, then try the Wild Tail for Maya-- I've had no probs getting that on anybody. The Kaz ponytail fits very very close in to the head and doesn't always fit very well-- at least when I'm doing it-- around the ears. Get the ears as good as you can and then the main forehead line. It will be a little further in than most hair. But having practiced on easier hair you may have better luck. Emily
