I'm contemplating the possibility of putting together a bundle of dynamic hair, and as sort of a warmup I've put this together. It's a semi-Goth style: very short on the sides and long and pulled back on top. It's far from perfect, but if anyone thinks it may have its uses, I'll figure out how to bundle it and offer as a freebie.

i like it and could  use it

Thats not bad, I try the hair room once in a while, but always give up, i really dont get the controls and my hair always looks bad, so i give up quite fast. :D

Really hope they make some serious improvements to that room. Maybe so you could create single lines that you can use to control hair within a set range so it was possible to get the hair to flow like you wanted a bit more easy. 

Thanks, guys. I've uploaded the package and it's waiting approval. When it's available, please do let me know if I have any packaging (or other) errors. It's looks to be a simple process, but perhaps I overlooked something.

That looks very effective.  I like the stubble on the sides.

Some time in 1992, I found myself in a room full of kids (ah, we were all kids, then) with that basic hairstyle.  One of them looked around and noted that, in a group of people who saw themselves as rebels, it was rather interesting that everyone had the same haircut.  :lol:  I wanted to point out that I wasn't much of a rebel, more a fan of the cartoons of Jaime Hernandez.  With my hair texture, I rather looked like Bizarro Bozo the Clown, with that sort of cut.

Umm.  :unsure:  I... like the stubble on the sides.  It would be interesting to study how you've structured this hair.

I'm guessing someone may have fun making the top/center part black and the sides bright red or something. :p

I packaged it all as blonde, but I also included about 15 other hair materials that I've been working on.

It's really pretty basic. [Edit: Only three groups: top, and two sides.] The top is pulled back, and the sides are short and pulled slightly down and back.

I realize now I could have turned down the verts per hair on the sides. I left them at the default (20). The long hair is 50. I also have pretty high density, so obviously, it's a bit of a resource hog. Some users will want to turn down some settings.

I like it.  Straight out of 1958.  Bobbysox, poodle skirts, Bobby Darin, Hot-rod Lincoln!

I could see me using this. Thanks

Commander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen did a great cover of that tune.

I like the hair but I want to try out changing the settings so it's not quite the resource hog.  Is the hair at your site?

yes, it's very nice!

Okay, it was approved for the freestuff section. You can find it here: http://www.renderosity.com/mod/freestuff/?item_id=74229

At high hair density there are a few loose strands that didn't settle down. If you need to render the back, you may want to run a short sim to get it to settle. If you lower the density and use thicker hair instead you probably won't have the issue (I don't think any of the guide hairs are sticking out like this), but for myself I prefer the realism of the current settings.

got it  thank you

The reason for the stray hair is that you have several stran guides that are much shorter than the rest of the group. If you drasitcally change length of guides, poser has trouble filling in the in between hairs.

Thanks for the tip!

I guess if I had made them just long enough to curl down, I wouldn't have those strays.

I'm as bald as a coot so I'd like any hair.. Oh, hang on, I see what you're getting at..
