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 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

    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.

    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?

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)
