Hi all,
I've just put together my first animation in iClone, a simple piece where my character turns to the camera, and walks over while introducing themself.  When I looked at the rendered version, both with and without the toon shader, there's something about the character's hair that doesn't quite 'gel' with the rest of the scene:

I used the 'A-Line Bob' hair style for the character, and changed the colour by modifying the diffuse map.  I can tell I'm missing something here, but I don't know what I don't know.  Any advice would be appreciated.

Sometimes the shadows the hair create are not realistic. 

Select the hair in the Scene Manager, and try turning off shadows, see if that looks better.

Or, I always turn off Hair Physics. Go to Modify > Physics, and turn off:

Or try changing the lighting and / or hair shaders or textures.

Try to set the Bias to -1 or 0.

Thank-you.  I tried all of those, and it looks better.
