Hoping someone can help out. I purchased this Sharon 8.1 Character and can't find the lovely hair in this image used in the promo. Mousso doesn't seem to return emails either.

Thanks in advance!

I think we had that question in another thread it is this hair: 2021-09 Hair for Genesis 8 and 8.1 Females | Daz 3D

Hi,

You enjoyed this beautiful hair that made this wonderful photo.
The problem is, beautiful hair for DAZ characters is very rare.
The creators don't put a lot of effort into this area, except in Second Life where the choice is very important.
Due to this problem, character creators very often use postwork hair (a TGA or PNG image applied to the character's head)
If you want to use this method, I recommend this tutorial:

For the hair painted:

You can also find hair on other professional 3D object sales sites.
But these hair will be unrriged and you will have to use Transfer Utility which works fine. This is what I do sometimes.

On Renderosity, Ilona sells voluminous hairstyles painting that look like the one you are interested in.
Each designer uses a particular technique that he does not disclose.
Some designers use an airbrush, others use photographs for more realism.

He referred the credit of using Ethel Hair for Genesis 8 and 8.1 Female for this promo image on the product page. I think he tweaked the hair style and shapes in parameters to make it looks great.

It is also possible to put two hairstyles on a same character, provided that they are compatible.
This allows for more voluminous hair.
We can also modify a hairstyle to keep only certain strands that we add to a second hairstyle.
In this area, there are no limits to inventiveness.
