Admittedly I haven't read the whole thread. But I have a few dynamic hairs (I think I bought them here) that takes an (IMO) great stance on the hair group and more important, render time, issue.

It has relatively thin hair on the crown of the head. And then like a ring (several parts of a ring actually) of denser hair around the perimeter. So the hair LOOKS really lush without the need for zillions of hair strands.

I've tried making dynamic hair a few times. With various success, Once I figured out how to actually style the hair it becamse easier, but I'm still using transmapped hair for 95% of my renders. I like the effect of dynamic hair, and for animations it's a must unless you're going with a buzz cut /slicked down hair. But.. it's not as easy as it could be. I wish Poser came with more various examples of dynamic hair...

Still, a good dynamjic hairdo is something I would probably buy. I'm not doing a lot of animations, but from time to time the need arises, and it just looks better. Just like dynamic cloth falls nicer when we're talking skirts or robes :)
