Makers of newer, higher quality flexi hair?

[Katherine Heartsong]

I think a few of the styles at eXxEsS are also flexi, or least have some degree of movement.

Lelutka also had animated hair as did Exxess.

Stealthic has one animesh hair (a braid) but has not created anything like it in a couple years. 

Exile did bento hair for a very brief while. I don't know if it's still in the store/available though. It was a few years ago.  

If I am remembering right, that animesh hair needed a specific AO to run right.. was from VISTA I think.

Yes, the Medusa concept is a cute one -- and definitely one of those times when your hair can move all on its own without seeming odd.

I also have a couple of hairs that just have a few strands moving a bit, more like there is a light breeze.  Those don't look too odd when the avi is standing still -- though I'm an antsy person and thus all of my standing AOs have me moving at least a bit.  In RL, I'm never standing totally still.

 

Back when the bento first came out, someone created a long hair that was rigged to one of the foot bones, so the hair flopped about whenever you were walking.  However, it ultimately looked more stupid than the long mesh gowns that flap awkwardly upwards with ever step.

Yeah I guess this is the issue, there's no good bones to rig to that won't result in weird movement.

 

I guess a solution would be a very big thing, animations being made to account for some new hair 'bones' etc. Maybe even a custom physics system for hair to simulate gravity accurately etc...Maybe in future, as if we hadn't made things complicated for ourselves already.

I'm trying to find a flexi  or mesh back piece for this one.. Something that might work, I don't know..hehehe

The one that comes with it is too long and wanting something above the shoulders..

The rest of the style was just too adorable to pass up.. hehehe
