FYI, Alfaseed (desir) at dna and Polymage (wildhair. was here) both dealt with this in their props. They are heavy (3 V4s) but versitile. Desir hair has poseable wisps even and good mobility. Plays well with PPro2012. I've not purchased hair in a long time so, not aware of new developments.

Transmap hair is a great low poly fix but has a shell like object that is hard to break up visually. This is why speculars are usually burned in. A lot of work was done with hair nodes here a few years ago but my crappy searches do not find them.

I'd watch for morphs that can lift and wisp or have "wind" options.
