3rd Party Hair Renderer

Hair is planted 1 strand by 1 strand onto the scalp of the head. Wait, did I say strand by strand!!!?? Yes, but to a certain extend. Because you do need to at least shape out the hair shape using splines or mesh before the plugin can interpolate correctly between the splines or mesh generating hair shaders. However, the more splines you used, the more precise and more natural the hair will look.

This type of hair plugin comes with realtime dynamics so it makes animation easier.
