Quote - These things are actually figures, not props. This is a bit of lore than must be unlearned.
See, it has always been confusing to beginners.
Beginner: I'm looking for the hair. Why can't I find it?
Expert Poser User 240 years experience: Look in Figures.
Beginner: What?
So they put a lot of figures in Props and Hair. They need to be conformed. They are not smart props.

The only problem with saying it needs to be unlearned is that it's still about 50/50 prop hair to conforming hair. That, and most vendors still put clothing in the figures section and not the prop's section which E Frontier did starting with Poser 6 just to confuse us because clothing really is a figure unless it's dynamic!
