Jeordanis Figuereo	Hi, Do you mean to "rig" the hair?. Please clarify and explain what you are trying to achieve. Jeordanis Figuereo (Product Designer. EPHERE Inc.) LinkedIn Discord

Jeordanis Figuereo	It is not possible to rig the hair directly. If you generate the hair from polygon strips, then you can rig and animate the polygon strips and the hair will follow them. Another option is, if you generated the hairs from spline curves, then you can rig and animate the spline curves so the hair will follow them. Jeordanis Figuereo (Product Designer. EPHERE Inc.)

jafar90	So, should I do the rigging process and add the rig modifiers before starting to make the hair? Or after making hair? I did not see a tutorial on YouTube! Maybe I didn't search correctly! Can you suggest a video tutorial?

Jeordanis Figuereo	To clarify. We DO NOT have a video about rigging hair because rigging hair it IS NOT supported. Again, a possible workflow is Generating Guides from Splines and then rigging the splines. Or Generating Hair from Mesh Strips and then rigging the mesh strips. Follow the links to the documentation where you will find some videos as well. Jeordanis Figuereo (Product Designer. EPHERE Inc.) LinkedIn Discord
