Y-Phil, I had been playing around with bump map strengths in the collapsed node to control gloss, too. Changing bump strength from .l to 1 makes a big difference in glossiness. This is good for coarser, teased, hair-sprayed hair (old timey hair), which has no gloss. Of course, lighting makes a difference, but I'm not savvy enough to know how to control lighting decently. I trust the presets in the lighting configurations I've gotten from RMP and Freestuff.
