Hair Net
Converts mesh and curves into particle hair.
Hair Net is an add-on for Blender that allows you to quick convert proxy guides into hair particles.
This project is a fork of Jandals's HairNet originally created 13 years ago!
This version of HairNet is the same principle as the original, but with a complete codebase rewrite and expanded functionality.
Blender provides an extensive suite of tools to modify mesh and curves that it doesn't provide to particle hair.
This tool allows you to convert proxy mesh and curve(s) objects directly into hair particles, vastly speeding up your workflow.
