I'm trying to recreate the hair of a flying horse with shag hair. But something comes out wrong everytime I try to make it more realistic. The hair penetrates the mesh of the neck and it seems too stiff, it doesn't exactly looks like there's any wind blowing it. Any suggestions?

As for the penetration, you want to enable physics and make the hourse a solid object so that the hair bounces off the hourse instead of through it. As for the stiffness, make sure your model hairs have enough vertices. If you wanna learn about physics and wind here's a great video tutorial from digimation themselves, need Flash 6 to play it:

... Hmmm I wonder if its the right one, its kinda large
