Hey thanks for a great tutorial ! I have a question tho. May I ask you if you plan on doing a specific tutorial for hair dynamics in blender. I simply am not able to get good hair self collisions in blender no matter how much i play with settings. They always seem to interpenetrate. I would like to get a result like the one from the start of your video.
Is there any way to export this animation as Alembic? Amazing tutorial by the way, thanks for it! 🤠

@@BlenderTutor General overview would be nice, thank you. I always postponed learning particle and hair systems because Blender devs keep promising node-based particle systems, but now I am not sure how long we'll have to wait. Might as well get familiar with the current system
Hey, what if we have two different particle system ? And we want to be colliding with each other? Like one is for the frizz and one is for the main hair?
Hi, i would like to know if we can slow down the hair simulation like in cloth simulation where you have speed setting? because I want to do slow motion animation with dynamic hair
Hello. I do have a question. When I applied the hair modifier on my own character, I noticed her hair remained black despite when you changed it to blue. How would you enable the hair color display?
thank u
The same voice as CG Fast Track ? Good tuto !
Great video!! Enjoy it. Anyone know why when i export the 3d model dont have any hair but are like the original bust?
I have hair on an object with a wind force field. It grows (more like explodes) to extreme lengths when I scrub through the timeline. This is true even after baking. The other issue is when I go to particle edit mode, the hair is shown as extremely long, going off the edges of the screen, even though it is short in the main viewport. When I cut the hair and then go back to Object Mode, the hair is now mostly gone. Any ideas what is going on? Blender 2.93.1
I have particle hair I downloaded online is there a way can you do a tutorial on how I could transfer that particle hair which still has the ability to particle edit to the scalp of a character that I will separate from the character if you do the tutorial???... It's nice particle here that I downloaded and the reason why I ask is then I would have a template that I could apply to any character and just put it on there no issues and then just particle edited with the comb brush... I like her moving mouse clicks from my workflow... this channel rocks
Thank you very much for the tutorial, can you tell me why my hair simulation ends in 250 frames, when I have it set to 1000? I can't solve it, and there is no much info, thanks a lot!
What if you want a simulated hair but it's tied with a hair tie? Or at least, a part of the hair is tied with a hair tie?
hi i followed your steps but when i click on 'hair' like you did on 1.21 the hair didnt appear in solid mode ,but it does appear in render do u know whats wrong?
I like yo Cut G!
thanks for the tutorial, ive added the collision physics layer yet the hair still passes through the sphere in the render? any suggestions
@BlenderTutor

It could be because you don't have enough segments on the hair particles. I would maybe add more and see if that helps, and if not, try to turn up the collision quality in the particle system. The last place I could think to check is the collision settings in the particle tab, though that probably isn't the issue.
😎' i'm in particle edit mode does anybody know where the damn "Tease" brush is....The bangs on my girl photoscan are going limp
how can i make the hair particle follow rig?
How do you make hair float like it is underwater?
when adding hair onto my model, it freezes in place when hair dynamics is turned on, on multiple blender versions, any reason why adding hair freezes?
14:46 David says no capes.
I haven't tried this out in a few years. Did they ever update it so that it can be rendered by the gpu?

Love it! But my computer can't handle it hahaha. Tried to bake the simulation and it crashes every time. I guess simulating dynamics on 400,000 hairs was too much.
For some reason after caching my hair sim, the hair starts to puff out away from the mesh before the source mesh even moves. Then when the model does move, most of the hair stays in place but stretches out. I tried adjusting the collision settings but that doesnt seem to improve anything. Anyone else having this problem?

If you're ever having trouble grooming in this tutorial or otherwise really make sure your segments are at 10 otherwise the puff brush won't work perfect
Is there a way to prevent the initial bounce? I cant seem to find an option so it starts static, then calculate the physics. Thanks!

Can i do this with pre made hair, like from Daz3d, instead of being created from scratch in Blender?
so if i put this hair on my head, my head movement is going to move this hair ?

Nice tutor. But I am new to hair animation, so here is a little question. You use hair dynamic with particle system, while others use bone rigging with hair(like this: kzread.info/dash/bejne/mYiYtKmTcZe6iKQ.html). I wonder when to use bone rigging or not for hair modeling, especially for blender? (I want to make an animation with long hair with a hairpin, and then the hairpin is taken off while pinned hair would be dropped by gravity)

True! I didn't want to reduce the resolution of the model too much more to avoid losing detail, but I could have had a duplicate head just for the hair that was WAY lower resolution just for the hair animation, then hide it during render.
