I'm looking for a "grandma-ish" hair model (grey hair tied back in a bun or something) for V3 and/or V4.  Any product/vendor suggestions?

Thank you for the promt reply.

I tried Koz's "Updo" hair (which is the style I'm looking for), but I don't remember the trick for getting his hair models to render (in Poser 5 or 7, using the standard Poser 4 render or Fidefly renfer engines) without those short horizontal "gaps" in the texture.  (I seem to recall it had someting to do with a displacement -node setting or something.)

Can't help you there but you could also try Mylochka 's V3 hairs:

Sweetness & Bunny Girl hair are quite nice on page two. :)

3Dream History Hair would fit the bill. Comes with grey and silver textures too, plus loads of style morphs. Fits just about all female figures, including Aiko, V2, V3, V4, Jessi, Judy, P4Fem, Steph Petite.

Yes, the History Hair looks like what I need.  Thank you.  (Guess the credit card will be taking another hit.)

But does anyone also know the trick for getting Koz's hair to render without those little gap streaks?

In the Material Room find the hair surface and click the Normals_Forward check box. 

In the Material Room make sure that the box at the bottomof the main material panel marked "Normals Forward" is checked and the hair wii render perfectly.

This is Kox's Updo hair without the Normals Forward checked

And this is with the box checked

I'll try that, but those aren't the texture flaws I am getting.  I'm getting multiple,short, narrow horrizontal "gaps", and I rceall that this problem was discussed way back when Poser 5 first came out andthat the solution had something to do with a displacement setting of some sort.

Here's what my Poser 5 Standard Poer 4 Render Engine,  production-quality result looks like.  And yes, I do get the look like the examples in the previous post when using FireFly render, so maybe the "normals forward" trick will solve this too, but in Poser 5 I do not see an option for selecting "normals forward"

I did the render below a long time ago - I was just playing with textures/morphs etc.  I used Koz's short bob for the 'elderly' lady - with the platinum texture.  As far as I remember I desaturated the texture to get the effect - although it came out snow white!

try adding just a tiny bit of displacement to the mats--sometimes that'll help in P5.
