For the hair, default I think it was. I noticed that the hair seemed to have parts that 'stretched'. as though was very little or no geometry; might just be an item that is not suitable.

I've had more success with other hair. I'll post a render I did, that I never posted anywhere as I didn't like the hair, once I've redone it.

And yes, I hate conforming - so much work to get it looking not so good. Early days with VWD, but loving it.
